DP Daily is back! Starting Monday, a short Dr Pepper history nugget every day on FB. 🥤 Ever notice old logos say "Dr. Pepper" with a period but newer bottles don't? Both are right, and there's a fun reason the period vanished. Story coming soon at #DPDaily Follow along: facebook.com/profile.php

Floppy disks, front-door visitation, and a guy I call Frank helped me learn an important truth. I wrote a piece for the @BaptistStandard about it. The Gospel never changes, but almost everything else has to be free to. baptiststandard.com/equip/eq…

Valor tells us when to take a stand. Wisdom tells us when to take a seat. Humility helps us hear the difference.

Complex, high-level decisions seem easy to those who carry no responsibility for them.

Dead-looking corn in a Texas field isn't a failed crop. It's field corn. The farmer wants it dry. What looks like failure from the road is the plan working perfectly. That's God's timing in a picture. You're not standing where the Farmer is standing. viewfromvine.com/2026/05/16/…

Grateful to @BaptistStandard for publishing an article I wrote for pastors. It's about something I've had to wrestle with personally — the slow, quiet erosion of intimacy with God when ministry starts crowding out relationship. baptiststandard.com/equip/eq…

I'll admit it. I have spent way too much time troubleshooting a computer problem, only to have someone ask me, "Did you try rebooting it?" A lot of us treat prayer the same way. It's the last thing we try instead of the first. viewfromvine.com/2026/04/17/…
