Unpopular opinion but I’m gonna say it anyway.

A deadbeat mom to is not just a mom that abandons her kids or walks away. She is loud. Online. “Empowered.” And constantly offended.

You might be a deadbeat mom if…

You say “my kids come first” but your emotions run the house

You call the father a narcissist but never question your own behavior

You block access to the kids then cry “single mom” online

You confuse chaos with strength and call it resilience

You let your kids hear grown-woman conversations and call it honesty

You’re raising kids on immature feelings instead of values

You think co-parenting means control, not cooperation

You’d rather be right than raise emotionally healthy children

You say “I don’t need a man” but teach your kids to resent masculinity

You use the court as a weapon and the kids as leverage

You demand provision but refuse accountability

You post about breaking cycles while actively repeating them

Deadbeat isn’t about money.
It’s about maturity.

It’s not about working or staying home.
It’s about leadership.

And no, calling this out isn’t “anti-women.”
It’s pro-children.

If this made you mad, sit with that.
If it made you reflect, good.

Growth usually starts with being offended anyway.

Best from Texas,

Korn Guitarist Goes Viral After Worship Performance in Church — “Only Jesus Can Do This”

Brian “Head” Welch — the legendary guitarist of the heavy-metal band Korn — is trending again, not for a tour, not for an album, but for something far more disruptive:

👉 He walked onto a church stage and played worship music… and the internet exploded.

The viral clip shows Welch, once known for some of the darkest, angriest music in rock, quietly strumming his guitar as the congregation worships. For millions of Christians, it’s a picture of radical transformation — the kind only God can write.

This is the same man who spent years addicted, broken, spiritually empty, and drowning in fame. In 2005, he shocked the world by leaving Korn and giving his life to Christ after encountering the Holy Spirit. Critics mocked him. Fans doubted him. The industry said it wouldn’t last.

Yet here he is — still standing, still serving, still worshiping.

And the moment he stepped onto that church platform, one thing became undeniable:

🔥 No one is too far gone for God to rewrite their entire story.
🔥 No testimony is too messy to become a ministry.
🔥 No darkness is powerful enough to drown out the light of Christ.

People in the comments are saying things like:
“This is what real repentance looks like.”
“From Korn to the Kingdom — glory to God!”

Others are furious, saying rock musicians don’t belong on church stages.

But Christians know something the world doesn’t:

📖 God specializes in taking unlikely people and turning them into living proof of His grace.

Welch once said in an interview:
“I was dead inside until Jesus came into my life.”

Now millions are watching a man the world wrote off become a vessel of worship.

This is more than a viral video — it’s a reminder:

Jesus still rescues.
Jesus still transforms.
Jesus still calls people out of darkness and into His marvelous light.

Today we remember a hero of the faith. Our Founder, Dr. James C. Dobson, passed away this morning. Although we're sorrowful over this loss, we are thankful for his legacy of family ministry that will live on for future generations, and rejoice that he is now in the presence of our Savior.

HE SAID / SHE SAID
Men and women speak differently.

When a wife says "You ALWAYS do this!"
Husbands, she means you do it so often, it feels like it's every time. Wives, please try to be more precise, it's frustrating.

When a husband says, "I don't ALWAYS do that!"
Husbands, stop arguing and listen to the HEART of her words.
Wives, if you are more precise, then say "it FEELS like always" he will have an easier time hearing you.

And if you are on either side of this, I'm talking to you. YOU should try to make the change first, regardless if you are the man or the woman in the relationship. You go first, and then talk to them later, inviting them to work with you.

Philippians 2:3 "Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves."

CRITIQUES vs. CRITISISMS:
A critique is meant to build you up. A criticism is meant to tear you down. The trick is to see both as a critique. In relationships it is best to see everything as a challenge to be your best self. Then there will be time to address the tone of the criticizer. And that discussion will always be more productive as a result.

Proverbs 15:31-32: "Whoever heeds life-giving correction will be at home among the wise. Those who disregard discipline despise themselves, but the one who heeds correction gains understanding."

When Noah was born, doctors told his young father, Ben, who had Down syndrome, that he wouldn’t be able to raise a child.
That he wouldn’t understand feeding schedules.
That he wouldn’t know how to comfort a crying baby.
That he wouldn’t be enough.

But Ben didn’t listen.

He held his newborn close, kissed his forehead, and whispered,

“I may not know everything… but I know how to love you.”

And love him he did.

Ben fed him with shaking hands, learned lullabies by humming, and rocked him every night until the sun rose. He worked part-time folding napkins at a local diner — saving every penny for Noah’s future.

There were stares. Whispers.
Other parents asked, “Is he… the father?”
Ben would just smile and nod proudly.

“He’s my son. My best friend.”

Noah grew. Ben aged.

Years passed like pages in a quiet book.

Noah became a man. Strong, kind, successful. People would say,

“You turned out so well.”

He’d reply,

“Because I was raised by someone who only saw the world with love.”

As Ben got older, his memory began to fade. He’d forget where he put things. Then names. Then Noah’s.

And one day, he looked into Noah’s eyes and asked,

“Are you my friend?”

Noah held his hand and whispered,

“I’m your boy. The one you raised. The one you gave everything to.”

Now, Noah feeds him. Helps him walk. Hums lullabies when Ben can’t sleep.

He’s not just caring for his father.

He’s repaying the man who raised him… twice.

And when they take pictures now, Noah smiles wide.

Because the world sees an old man with Down syndrome and his adult son.

But he sees his hero.
His teacher.
His heart.

The only way to have what you want is to want what you already have.

Philippians 4:11-12 (KJV): "Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content. I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need."

From the inside, this is so difficult to see. If you're stuck here, I can help.

Parents. Please stop trying to do everything for your kids. They should do as much as they are able to do. Failing to let them try is teaching them how to fail before they try.
