Hello to all present and future readers!
It's been a ride. I've reached the end of an era, if one could call it that. The first blog post was over 10 years ago. Since then, over 450 published articles have been designed to help me (and others) learn to see God in everyday conversations, entertainment, and experiences. There were a couple of dozen people who signed up as well. That doesn't sound like many people, but I didn't care. I was just excited that someone was interested. I prayed that the words made a difference.
Last fall, a new development included 30-second videos designed along the same lines and goals. Although the idea was a subscription-based daily email, there were few takers. I then decided that these snippets would be shared on several social media platforms at no cost, but a donation page was added. You know, just in case.
There have been emotional ups and downs throughout this process. Rather than extend this discussion on this page, you can read about them at Shouting Into the Void.
You’ll also find the 2026 direction for Sandals and a Stick by clicking the “Ben Franklin’s Moral Algebra” link below. But to keep things short, the adjustments to the concept are listed below.
- The Sandals and a Stick Blog will continue with a goal of one per week, usually published on Sunday.
- Some articles will be a little long, and others very short. At times, they will include a Sandals and a Stick 30-Second video
- Everything will be posted here (Click "Blog" in the header) and on the original Sandals and a Stick Blogger site.
- Some will be posted on the Sandals and Stick social media platforms listed below.
- Subscribing is the best way to see every one of them as they are uploaded. There is no cost, and it is easy to cancel. Please use the Subscribe button at the bottom of the Blog page or Click Here.
- Comments are encouraged. Please use the Connect button above.
- Donations are gratefully accepted, should you find the content has value to you. Please use the Donate button above.
There is no way for me to adequately thank you for your interest in this project. But know that your participation is appreciated immensely. Should you have any comments, questions, or suggestions, please feel free to reach out.
