Sunday. Monday. And just like that we go from “the biggest game of the year” or “the most spectacular sports event of the year” to ho-hum another blah blah first day of the week. Well, maybe that’s how you do it. But not me. For me, it’s Sunday Monday and every day’s a fun day. Or maybe I should say Funderday. Because it’s not … The rest of the story…
Only one can win and claim the number 1 spot. Yeah, the team that wins the Superbowl gets to be called number 1. I get to be the number 1 Tony Funderburk on the internet. Yippee! But there is only one person who gets to be called number 1 of everything. Can you guess who it is? I’ll tell you. It’s Jesus. He’s the … The rest of the story…
I have a “bicuspid aortic valve” in my heart. In regular English, that means my heart only has two parts to the aortic valve, and it’s supposed to have three.

Love doesn’t mean you have to be a doormat, always turn the other cheek, or simply keep your mouth shut.

I’m gonna say a little something about living well. And I don’t mean living well. Yeah, I guess I could use a little clearing up. Because it sounds like I contradict myself within just a few words. But it’ll make sense in just a second. I’m talking about living well, the noun. There. All clear? Good, let’s move on. Just kidding. But I am … The rest of the story…
America’s first generation citizens fought some very costly battles and a war in order for you and me to be truly free. And in less than 250 years, the rest of us have managed to destroy most of that freedom. And citizens, these days, don’t even want to be truly free. They prefer the socialism we now live in (or some might say in … The rest of the story…

I mean, cancer doesn’t even remotely look like blessing. So how could they mix those words up so badly? Because I’m sure they meant to say white evangelical Christianity is a blessing.
