Keith Brown
July 27, 2020

Some time back, I wrote the following to two loved ones whose marriage was failing. I offer it here on the chance that there are others that might find their way to it, take it to heart, and experience the beauty of restoration and a new life together. + +…

The shortest distance between two points – is not God’s plan.

Keith Brown
December 31, 2018

It’s New Year’s Eve and I have no intention of making any resolutions. Not that I am opposed to the idea, but maybe it just seems too artificial. Or too hopeless. Or maybe it is because I feel that I have learned that it is dangerous to equate the accomplishment…

Lincoln is Risen! (Christianity as Insanity)

Keith Brown
March 30, 2018

Joy Behar, one of the hosts of ABC’s daytime TV talk show “The View,” made quite a stir with a recent statement about the faith of Vice President Mike Pence: “It’s one thing to talk to Jesus. It’s another thing when Jesus talks to you,” Behar said. “That’s called mental…

What if this is as good as it gets?

Keith Brown
February 14, 2016

Melvin knows life – somehow. The contradiction is that Melvin (played by Jack Nicholson in the 1997 film, As Good as It Gets) is a successful author whose novels have an emotional appeal to female readers, but who repulses any human contact or genuine relationship. An ill-tempered, obsessive-compulsive misanthrope, he…

Unbroken peace and freedom from fear

Keith Brown
January 16, 2016

“A born-again person ought to possess unspeakable peace in the spirit,” writes influential speaker and author Watchman Nee in his book, The Spiritual Man – and I can find no fault with it. What are the keys, then, to transforming our thinking in order to make this our daily experience?…
