I reserved the domain name, www.heelcatcher.com, many years ago. My intent was to start a personal blog online. Like most good intents, it never happened. I simply did not have the time to set things up. Ironically, the event that gave me the time was an Achilles rupture that happened to me on November 21, 2009. My heelcatcher blog was birthed out of my snapped heel. I wish I would have found a less painful way to get things started.

From political polarization to protests. From social media angst to online vitriol. From racial tension to riots. It seems that just about everyone is angry about something. Yes, there is injustice in the world…injustice in our nation…injustice in our communities. … Continue reading
Rejoice in the Lord Always!
Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice! Let your reasonableness be known to everyone. The Lord is at hand. (Philippians 4:4-5) In the midst of everything going on in our culture, have you lost your joy? Are … Continue reading
Does the World Really Need Jesus?
It sounds like a religious cliche. A cop-out. A nice sounding phrase thrown out by pious Christians who don’t know what else to say. The world needs Jesus. What difference can Jesus make? Our world is broken…angry…divided…crying out for justice…looking … Continue reading
