Today in Rock History
June 5, 1971
Paul McCartney’s second solo album, Ram, begins a two-week run at No. 1 on the UK chart. Featuring the US No. 1 single “Uncle Albert / Admiral Halsey,” the album was recorded during McCartney’s legal fight to dissolve The Beatles’ partnership, following their breakup the previous year. John Lennon felt that several tracks, especially “Too Many People” and “Dear Boy,” were directed at him. The album reached No. 2 in the US and has since been re-evaluated as one of Paul’s strongest and most creative solo efforts.

I know this feeling. I can’t imagine it at his age.
I cannot express how much we need to continue praying and supporting this family…💔

Reprise:: RIP, Craig Morton.
He came off the scrap heap to help the Broncos to their monumental first trip to the Super Bowl in transformative times in a different Denver. Here are two passages from my book "'77, Denver, the Broncos, and a Coming of Age." The first one introduces him to readers and traces his path from his Bay area youth to Denver. https://t.co/orhc3jZtn4
The second is the chapter on the Jan.. 1, 1978 AFC championship game against the hated (and that's being too nice) Raiders. It was miraculous that Morton even played after spending all week in a hospital. Red Miller tied his shoes and sent him out there.

Here’s a word you don’t hear much these days…
“REPENT.”
It sounds harsh to modern ears. It makes people uncomfortable. But it is one of the most important words in the entire Bible — and honestly, one of the most loving things God ever said to us.
The word literally means to “Turn Around.” Not just feel bad. Not just say sorry. But to make a complete U-turn — to change the direction of your life.
Here’s where a lot of us get tripped up. We confuse remorse with repentance. And they are not the same thing.
Remorse says “I feel bad about what I did.” Repentance says “I am changing what I do.”
Judas felt remorse. Peter repented. One led to despair — the other led to restoration.
The Bible tells us in 2 Corinthians 7:10 — “Godly sorrow leads to repentance that brings salvation and leaves no regret — but worldly sorrow brings death.”
In other words — it’s not enough to feel guilty. God wants to do something far deeper than make you feel bad. He wants to transform you from the inside out.
What’s the difference between remorse and true repentance? Watch this short video — I think it will change the way you look at this powerful word. 👇
NEW: Astronaut Reid Wiseman shares a video of ‘Earthset’ that was taken with his iPhone
“This is uncropped, uncut with 8x zoom which is quite comparable to the view of the human eye…” Wiseman said.
This has to be the greatest iPhone video of all time.
This should be uncontroversial for all Christians: It is unbiblical to talk only about the soul, and to ignore meeting tangible physical needs.
“Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to them, ‘Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,’ but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it?” (James 2:15-16).
“If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person? Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth” (1 John 3:17-18).
“Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world” (James 1:27).
“Who is wise and understanding among you? Let them show it by their good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom” (James 3:13).
All Christian care is embodied-soul care.
It is time, my fellow Christians living in America, to choose you this day, who you will follow: our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, or the man who comes dangerously close to blaspheming that Savior by putting himself on an equal level with Him.
This of course on top of the post he made this Sunday night trashing the pope, but now in this one, putting himself on an equal level with the Son of God.
If you follow Jesus, then you have to call this out. If you celebrate this blasphemous self-aggrandizement, then you don’t understand what it means to b follower of Jesus, and you need to be honest about that.
As for me and my house, we serve the Lord, and we have allegiance to Jesus Christ alone, and we give that glory to no human being.
It’s completely obvious God exists.
His design for the human body includes:
· 79 organs
· 206 bones
· 650 muscles
· 37 trillion cells
· 86 billion neurons
And they all work together perfectly.
Soli Deo Gloria 🙏
