Ladies, fellas, friends of all kinds… I am going to be a busy bee this spring/summer/fall.

Thanks for your support. It means so much!
a followup.
I feel like I need to make a statement, due to the unforeseen intensity of reaction to my post earlier: Disagreeing publicly with someone doesn’t mean I hate them, that I don’t consider them my brother, or that I see absolutely nothing good in what they believe. I thought those were givens, but I guess not. So I’ll say that officially here. Those who are upset by me taking a...
Heeere comes my rant about that "I hate religion"...
Don’t lie, you knew it was coming!
This video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1IAhDGYlpqY&feature=player_embedded) is frustrating on so many levels. I feel like I’ve been textually shouting till I’m blue in the face on my blogs and online platforms for years, talking about how “religion” doesn’t mean what most people who hate it *think* it means.

has given
to me
are rare.

with each

As for the first—I am just beginning to dive into this band’s work, and enjoying it. Check ‘em out. Listening to “Glow” today.
As for the second, this blog (written from an atheistic perspective) put into words for me today the reason I write music—to explore and wonder at my own human experience—including my faith.

I hadn’t thought about it this way. Well written, and it’s given me something to chew on…
derekwebb:
Music matters. It’s so integral and pervasive in our culture that it almost feels invisible. It’s even hard to imagine walking into almost any store without hearing music overhead. Culture provides a constant soundtrack to our lives. So it’s no wonder there’s so much...
William Price III: ABVD →
Billy’s latest cancer update. Chemo starts Monday…
younglionyounglover:
Chemotherapy starts Monday. 12-5pm. I’ll be doing a regimen of ABVD— which is standard in America for Hodgkin’s.
I’m a little apprehensive about it. It’s odd to go to a hospital to have toxins injected into your body. But mostly, I’m ready to go. Ready to start. Ready to be done. I’ve been…
