Bierkergaard Update!

 


I am back! From the dead or at least a long sleep. Winter hibernation and then some...

Great News! I have created a podcast titled Bierkergaard: The Writings of Soren Kierkergaard. 

It is on major podcast platforms here below:

In some cases it may take you to a specific episode vs. the podcast page. I am still learning the tech and yesterday I had my first guest, Tom Becker, from the Row House Forum here in Lancaster.  Listen to my podcast with him. It was both fun and insightful. Tom and I go back about 25 years. The other episodes thus far are me talking about a piece of Soren's writings.

Just to give a bit of a heads up about the plan of action in how Bierkergaard the Podcast, the Twitter Bierkergaard account, Craft Beer Bierkergaard, and this blog all relate:

The Bierkergaard Podcast -  Specifically about Soren's Writings and Reflection/Application. Episodes post every couple of days. Best to Follow if you want to be updated. I am a huge fan of podcasts and listen to several daily.  

The Bierkergaard Twitter - Random philosophical observations. Some silly, some serious. Will post on Twitter Bierkergaard when a new podcast episode is out. Just search Bierkergaard to find on Twitter.  It comes right up. Probably tweet 2-3 times a day.

The Craft Beer Bierkergaard - A once a week YouTube Beer review and a bit more storytelling to provide additional depth and interest. Kind of started just about beer but I think there is value in adding a story element. 

Here is a new episode: https://youtu.be/zvkkeGBpkGw

Bierkergaard Blog - More in the spirit of Soren in reference to everyday events. I know that people don't read blogs like we used to but I think writing is still something that I like to do. So, maybe once a month or so I will post a new blog entry.  

I'd love it if you'd decide to follow the above social media accounts. I, in the parlance of the times, am "branding" Bierkergaard to be the umbrella for my efforts. I want to add value to my audiences' lives and have no overarching goal to monetize any of it. If it happens, I will decide that if and when my energy and time seem to justify some reimbursement. I ain't completely willing to work pro bono if things catch on. 

My Facebook and Instagram accounts remain private and one has to be a friend to join. So, if you know me in real life, look me up if you are a friend in those domains.

Just to end on this note about the podcast. No one else has created a podcast exclusively dedicated to the writings of Soren Kierkegaard which I find hard to understand. He has much insight to offer us and I will do my best to bring it to the light of day. The podcast already been listened to all over the world!

Shake the Dust: Anis Mojgani

Pslam 90:2 "Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God." I am not real certain where Anis Mojgani comes from belief-wise. Cats like him tend to be synchrestic spiritually rather than Christ-centered. Yet, this poem captures the spirit of Jesus. What this poem also needs is grace....we shake off sin and mortality and take on Christ and immortality. This is for the fat girls This is for the little brothers For the former prom queen And for the milk crate ball players This is for the school yard wimps And the childhood bullies that tormented them Shake the dust. This is for the benches and the people sitting upon them. This is for the bus drivers driving a million broken hymns And for the men who have to hold down 3 jobs, Simply to hold up their children. For the nighttime schoolers And for the midnight bike riders trying to fly Shake the dust. For the two year olds who cann

White Shoes, White Stones

Rev 2:17 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches. To him that overcometh, to him will I give of the hidden manna, and I will give him a white stone, and upon the stone a new name written, which no one knoweth but he that receiveth it. (ASV) With the white stone mentioned above in the Scripture verse, "And will give him a white stone" it is "Supposed that by the white stone is meant pardon or acquittance, and the evidence of it; and that there is an allusion here to the custom observed by judges in ancient times, who were accustomed to give their suffrages by white and black pebbles; those who gave the former were for absolving the culprit, those who gave the latter were for his condemnation." (Clarke) What has brought about this essay was my purchasing the other day of some very white and new Nike jogging shoes. My old pair of Nike's have been worn down. I was developing serious pain in my feet which is a solid sign that it is t

Going Rogue: Dare, Risk, Dream

Image
I picked up a bumper sticker at a Pub recently from the Rogue Brewery . On it there are the words: DARE, RISK, DREAM. Typically, the word Rogue is a negative term. I will let you decide if Sarah Palin and her book has made the word less or more so. Initially, I taped the bumper sticker to my computer lap top with the backing still on it in case I wanted to remove it. Just a second ago, I committed fully, and pulled the backing off and affixed it to my Dell. No turning back. Is that not an illustration of how to accomplish great things? We have to stick and commit. If we go taping ourselves to the backs of things, it leads to easier removal but also to tepid efforts. Now, if I take this bumper sticker off the back of my lap top it is going to be a mess...I am all in. Consequences be damned. My summer vacation officially began today at noon (why else would I be blogging at 3:26 am?) and my creed for the summer is DARE, RISK, DREAM. A Kerouac quote to light the fireworks... "Great th
