If There’s Love

The art of the heart is a music unheard of Sweet song beyond psychology, psychiatry and reason Fire inside The heart has reasons that Reason doesn’t even know Gracing Presence The heart sings with rumbling that few souls hear Purpose

Hutchmoot 2014

After months of silence, I’m back at EvanWeppler.com. Just had a trip to my third Hutchmoot and wanted to write a post- but as I tend to be more wordy and rambling and go on and on (like now), I

Weary

My mind is tired. After almost 20 years of schooling, I’m ready to be done.  I joke with the kiddos at church often, saying that I’m in 20th grade, or something along those lines. This is usually followed by: “And

“Be Cool.”

I just want to be loved, be liked, be accepted, “be cool.” I swear, this has been a pursuit for my entire life. “Being Cool– The NeverEnding Quest.” More like “Being Cool– The NeverSatisfying Quest.” ~:~ Heck, let’s be honest–

Memories & Objects

Over the years, we’ve had computers, external hard drives, flash drives, thumb drives, CDs, DVDs, CD-Rs, CD-RWs, Mini-CDs, memory cards, SD cards, MicroSD cards, 3.5 Floppy Disks, Floppy Disks, and more… and now, of course, we have “The Cloud”– or

icur: The What

Teresa, a saint with her love and her doubts, said it best: “We can do no great things, only small things with great love.”  Perhaps you and I can’t create a culture of good news, good works, and goodness found in Christ (though isn’t

The Four

It’s somewhat fascinating. What is it about the structure of four that it is so recurring?  There are all sorts of different groupings– a duo, a triad, and of course a quartet. I think it’s interesting to look them over

Wilt Thou Forgive?

I found this hymn years ago and loved the lyrics– who hasn’t had these fears and storms within?  I put it to new chords and finally made a recording– poor, I know, but I’m happy it’s somewhere other than my

Movies and the Mystery of Camp

I love camp movies. And I hate camp movies. No, I don’t mean “camp” as in “an aesthetic sensibility that regards something as appealing or humorous because of its ridiculousness to the viewer” as Wikipedia puts it (though I do enjoy

icur: The Why

Who are you?  We get this question on a daily basis, in word and glance and attitude and within. We answer and identify ourselves by our appearance, our occupation, our age and race and economic status and educational background, where

Try

Yoda said, “Do or do not. There is no try.” I disagree. Sometimes, all you have is try. For “good enough” parents. For cancer patients, living on hope. For the depressed man, mustering all his strength to simply get out

Motivational Babies #5

I created these a few years, combining the “aww” of babies and the “awesome” of motivational quotes. Some are funny, some are serious, and some are just awe inspiring. And some are just stupid. More at http://motivationalbabies.blogspot.com.  

Traveling Companions

It’s Amazing It’s amazing what a difference some time with friends and just a little sleep can make. I am realizing for the millionth time that I need people. I can’t do this alone. I know this to be true,

In Christ You Are…

I have a vision for next year. I honestly want to launch this right now, but there’s this little thing called school– plus work and church and friends and family and home and… Anyway… 2014 January 2014  Get ready. (This

I am like a Tree

A song written ages ago… “I will pour out my spirit on your children     and my blessing on your descendants. They will thrive like well-watered grass,     like willows by streams of running water.” Isaiah 44 ~:~  I am like a
