How Bullying Can Sharpen Your BS Detector
How Bullying Can Sharpen Your BS Detector
If you were ever a victim of bullying, it more than likely did the same for you. This is not to say that abuse of any form is a good thing because no one should ever be bullied. Ever! However, though painful and humiliating when it was happening, a bullied past has had its positive takeaways, one of which is my fine-tuned ability to smell bulls*** from a mile away. Judging from my own experience…

Wolves in Sheep's Clothing Teaching Scripture: The Results are About What One Would Expect
Wolves in Sheep’s Clothing Teaching Scripture: The Results are About What One Would Expect
Tumblr media
“Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.” –Matthew 7:15
“But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. And many shall follow their pernicious ways;…

I work part-time as a merchandise manager for the premier cooking store in Atlanta. Last week we had our annual training day at the Atlanta Merchandise Mart. Some of the training courses were not new to me, as I’ve been through a bit of training in the past, but there was one vendor that surprised me, reminding me that as someone once said, “The greatest wisdom is seeing through appearances.” In other words, this particular class session reminded me that the difference is in the details, that truer value lies beneath surface appearances (important in dating, as well, but that is another story…).
The vendor was a tableware company, Fortessa, who represents a crystal glassware manufacturer from Germany, called Schott Zwiesel. In our kitchen store, we’ve carried this collection of wine glasses and barware for some time, marketing it alongside its rival, Riedel. However, most of us sales associates never understood the significant differences between the two lines of glassware.
#gallery-0-5 { margin: auto; } #gallery-0-5 .gallery-item { float: left; margin-top: 10px; text-align: center; width: 50%; } #gallery-0-5 img { border: 2px solid #cfcfcf; } #gallery-0-5 .gallery-caption { margin-left: 0; } /* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes/media.php */
Schott Zwiesel
Riedel
At first sight, the two collections of stemware appear almost identical. Both have delicate, thin stems. Both offer many different sizes and shapes to bring out the best flavors in wine varietals from Bordeaux to Chardonnay. However, one look at the price tags on both reveals there must be some significant differences, with Riedel being a significantly more expensive option. None of us knew what those differences were, though, until training day.
You see, Schott Zwiesel is an entirely different type of crystal than Riedel. Riedel is leaded crystal. It’s like the Rolls Royce of stemware, and requires Rolls Royce type maintenance, as it is very fragile. It’s delicate, elegant, and designed to bring out the best in any sort of wine. Schott Zwiesel, however, looks as delicate and elegant, and also brings out the best in any sort of wine, but it isn’t leaded crystal. Instead of lead, it’s fused with titanium, making it a much sturdier crystal. With this design, it stands up to the banging and abuse it gets in so many of the restaurants and hotels that use them. But the vendor had to demonstrate its strength for us, because we certainly couldn’t know that simply by looking at the two side by side. Moreover, it would have been easy to make the assumption that Riedel, being the more expensive of the two, was intrinsically better.
A similar experience happened to my husband and I this week when we took our Mini Cooper in for service. The dealership kindly gave us a loaner, another Mini Cooper. When we drove the car out of the dealership, we noticed immediately that it wasn’t like our own, even though, from the outside as well as from the interior, the two cars looked almost identical. They handled completely differently. The loaner sounded tinnier than our own, the doors seemed lighter and looser, the acceleration more sluggish. And yet, one wouldn’t have known this without driving both of them, and taking a deeper look.
Analytical thinking is one of the most profitable abilities one can learn, and yet seldom do instructors teach it. Furthermore, as a society grows more complacent and/or lazier, we are all too quick to hand over our thinking for someone else to conduct, when we haven’t even bothered to analyze that person’s level of expertise. “Hey, I read it, agree with it, why should I fact check it,” seems to be the mantra of the day.
When we fail to take a deeper look, then we make inaccurate judgments that often result in our own suffering. This kind of negative outcome happens so often that we have several adages that warn against it, including, “Beauty is only skin deep,” and “Appearances can be deceiving.” In short, we often miss the wolves in sheep’s clothing, even if the tailoring is clearly askew.
However, even worse than our own suffering, in my opinion, is when our lack of analysis leads to someone else’s suffering. Most notably, this happens when we think less of someone than he/she is truly worth, because we haven’t taken the time to get to know the person first, before passing judgment. I love the saying, “Do not judge by appearances; a rich heart may be under a poor coat.” Wealth, or the appearance thereof, does not rightly determine the intrinsic value of the rich man’s heart any more than the term “crystal indicates the usefulness and durability of a piece of stemware.
Furthermore, a good soul might be hidden beneath a scarred face. And it’s been my experience that the good souls are infinitely worthier of knowing than the beautiful but shallow-hearted. So, take a deeper look to what lies beneath the surface, both with material things as well as with people, and even animals. You never know what surprises await there because the difference is in the details. Give love, live loved. Have a great week.

The snake, the sparrow, and the sword
The snake, the sparrow, and the sword
Life supposedly imitates art (according to the philosophers).  I find that more often in my daily life I am reminded either of fallen creation (however miraculous), or think quite a bit on the spiritual world in which believers have to battle.
Currently in Arizona we have some extreme heat warnings — with highs yesterday reported as much as 120 or so.  Flights were canceled due to the heat of the…

Matthew 24:11 “And any false prophets will rise and will deceive many.”
In Jesus’ discourse on the end time’s He warned us that there would be “many false prophets” to “deceive many”.
Jesus used a powerful word twice, “πολύς” (polus, Strong’s #4183), which means “much, many, great,” and is used in passages like Luke 5:6; Acts 11:21; it denotes great abundance (e.g. Matt. 9:37; 1 Pet. 1:3; Matt.…

The "Prophet"
The “Prophet”
As people leave their cars and file into the church the air is filled with conversations and anticipation. The seats begin to fill. There are no drums, guitars, or keyboards. No instruments fill a corner of the room.
Someone is heard telling their neighbor, “The prophet is going to speak this morning. I’m so excited!” A hush passes through the room as the “prophet” walks across the floor and…

Who Are the People Most Hurtful to a Target? 'Tisn't the Bullies (Part 2)
Who Are the People Most Hurtful to a Target? ‘Tisn’t the Bullies (Part 2)
(Continued from Part 1…) When you’re a target of bullying in school or at work, you can’t afford to put all your trust in anyone, not even those who seem to be your friends. I’m not suggesting you be completely paranoid, only nonchalant. Because in a toxic area, you will have a few nosy wolves in sheep’s clothing around you, who will try to get close to you for no other reason than to probe for…

Tuesday 4/3 ~ Isn't it time you discover the truth?
Tuesday 4/3 ~ Isn’t it time you discover the truth?
The scripture for today, April 3 (4/3), is 1st Timothy 4:3 as found in the New Testament of the Bible:
“They [false teachers] forbid people to marry and order them to abstain from certain foods, which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and who know the truth.”
Is it hard for you to think that smiling, humble, Bible-quoting, holy-looking church leaders could be false…

Geez, this is a trying year. I would think talking about my training to wield love would inspire people…obviously it seems to make some people uncomfortable and the source of some judgey behavior. I thought it was obvious that this was my personal journey…MINE, and so right from the start let me just say that I have completely embraced this training and it is my journey and no one else’s. So…

The Biblical Test of a Prophet and Prophecy
The Biblical Test of a Prophet and Prophecy
I acknowledge upfront that the following teaching places me squarely in the minority; it has gotten me in a lot of trouble with my charismatic brothers and sisters. But I believe this with all my heart.
I believe there are two tests that apply to New Testament prophets and prophecy:
Deuteronomy 18:21-22, “And you may say in your heart, ‘How can we know the word which the LORD has not spoken?’…
