One time a young boy came to his mother with a question that was troubling him. He had an acquaintance at school who was trying to make friends with him, and he was not at all sure about it. As it turned out, his suspicions were quite correct, but the problem was that he could …

Two Converging On One

Posted on Sunday, April 23, 2006Friday, March 22, 2019 by Douglas Wilson

Once there were two teen-aged brothers who were very close, and they loved each other dearly. They were close in age as well, and they enjoyed playing the same games, and doing the same things. When one wanted to ride his bike, so did the other one. When one wanted to go out into the …

So Fight the Dragon

Posted on Sunday, April 9, 2006Friday, March 29, 2019 by Douglas Wilson

Once there were two young brothers playing together on the living room floor. Well, they were not really playing together, but they were playing at the same time, and without very much conflict.

The Man Who Sat In A Chair

Once there was a man who sat in a chair. His friend came up to him after he had done so, and asked, quizzically, “Why did you do that?” “My feet were sore . . .” began the man who was sitting down. “No, no, that’s not what I meant. Why did you sit down …

The Jealosy That Never Stops Losing

Posted on Sunday, March 12, 2006Tuesday, June 25, 2013 by Douglas Wilson

Once there were two young brothers, with one of them three years younger than the other. He was not only younger, but he was also slighter in build, and, though he was intelligent, he was not quite as sharp as his brother. They played a lot together, but in everything they did, the older brother …

Anything But Innocence

Posted on Sunday, March 5, 2006Monday, March 18, 2019 by Douglas Wilson

One of the oldest pagan tricks in the world is the practice of simply assigning guilt. The one to whom it is assigned is not permitted to argue about it, and it is considered very bad manners if he does. To do so is simply heaping additional guilt on top of his designated and assigned …

The Fence-Climbing CEO

Once there was a man who was very disgruntled with his employer, and so he began to spread stories around the workplace about all the awful things his employer had done. But the only thing the employer had really done was fail to promote this employee rapidly enough for his liking. Other charges, however, were …
