This week’s Sam’s Song is called Take Me. I wrote this song a long time ago and it was the first song I ever wrote and played that I actually remember liking. Ironically, I think it was the 3rd or 4th song I ever recorded. I wrote when I was having relational problems with an [...]
Brian McClaren’s, not mine. Clayton posted a great little youtube video with some dude named Brian McClaren that I thought was pretty good. I’ve included it below. I think he has some good things to say regarding praise and worship, its commercialization and how it’s perceived. Also, Please check out Clayton’s blog as well. My [...]
Well, I know abortion and women’s rights is a pretty big deal in the grand ‘ol US of A but wow! Someone’s really got quite a temper regarding the backlash to a new type of birth control. Check out Pandagon for a post displaying a bit of anger and resentment towards individuals opposing a new [...]

It’s always fun and exciting to watch people present their versions of truth but unfortunately, it doesn’t look like the video did all that [...]
Another creative tip I’ve found from another blogger named Graham English is to do object writing. I like this technique… It’s very stream of conciousness activity and forces you to relax and not “try” to “accomplish” anything but to allow yourself to be free and as the author said, “wake up.” I think sometimes we [...]
So, in my quest to complete a song a week and post it here on this site, I’m doing a little research on other bloggers that are songwriters and came across Christine Kane’s blog. She is a songwriter and who has a few tips on becoming more creative, so I thought I’d share them, for [...]
