Not my cross to bear book7/2/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Eric Clapton and Duane Allman playing together. The story of Duane stumbling upon the Layla sessions for the classic Derek and the Dominoes 1970 double album is a guitar lovers dream.

Allman Brothers, Dave Mason, and Little Feat – this was all that was left of my ticket (If you want to read more of what I really think about this check out my earlier post Concert Ticket Stubs: Another Cool Collectible Bites the Dustīorn in Nashville in 1947, Allman moved with his mother and brother to Daytona Beach in 1959 where the formative rock n’ roll years took place. ![]()

First Blood by David Morrell7/2/2023 ![]() This then led to Rambo III, wherein Rambo fights in the Soviet/Afghan war, and 2008’s belated sequel Rambo, wherein he saved Christian missionaries held captive in Burma. No longer an anti-war protest movie, Rambo: First Blood Part II was a gory, jingoistic fantasy wherein Rambo returned to Vietnam, saved secret POWs whose existence the government had covered up, and single-handedly wiped out the Russian and Vietnamese armies. However, after the sleeper hit success of Rambo: First Blood, the franchise changed tack entirely. Rambo: First Blood showed a lot of compassion toward its troubled antihero, but made it clear that Rambo was struggling to adjust to civilian life because of the atrocities he took part in while serving in the military. ![]() In the modest, tonally dark original movie, Rambo: First Blood, John Rambo was a Vietnam War veteran who ended up in a bloody stand-off with a corrupt small-town sheriff's department upon his return to the US. The Rambo franchise had a fascinating history that repeatedly redefined the role of its central antihero. ![]() ![]() While Rambo: Last Blood didn’t completely bomb at the box office, the Rambo sequel was comfortably the worst movie in the series. ![]()

![]() ![]() From that reset, he moves on to describe a number of ways that cultural Christianity manifests itself throughout the United States, all the while offering tips for engaging the various manifestations. In the opening chapter, “Help Get Them Lost,” he argues that step one is to help “unsaved Christians” see they are living with a false sense of hope by showing them the incongruity of their thinking with biblical Christianity. Inserra begins the work by attempting to restore everything to the starting point. Inserra argues that type of thinking has saturated geographic areas, familial lines, and social alliances, all of which need to be awakened from their false security. He argues that this Gospel-less Christianity creates people “who think they are fine with God because they are familiar with Christian things” (9). Why wouldn’t a culture shaped by Christianity be a good thing? As Dean Inserra describes in The Unsaved Christian: Reaching Cultural Christians with the Gospel, cultural Christianity is problematic for a number of reasons, the primary reason being that it falls short of the transformative, life-giving Gospel of Jesus Christ. ![]() On its face, the idea of cultural Christianity may seem like a positive. ![]() The Unsaved Christian: Reaching Cultural Christians with the Gospel. ![]()

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Few policymakers question the fact that our nation’s physical infrastructure – roads, rails, bridges and water systems - are in need of repair after decades of disinvestment and investing in those systems will create jobs, albeit temporary, while improving systems we need to ensure a functioning economy.īut our nation faces another equally pressing infrastructure priority that can no longer be ignored. Infrastructure investment is at the top of the agenda for the new administration and for members of Congress on both sides of the aisle, as it’s a tried-and-true strategy for creating jobs while fulfilling a public need in the midst of a deep recession. ![]()
