Life after the age of 40 is very different from the early adult years. Besides the obvious and rather depressing changes to our bodies (damn it!), our perspectives often change. Life isn’t as black & white as our young naive eyes originally thought.
We are a couple in our early and mid 50’s who live in the southern United States. We have 8 kids between us. We were both married previously and all of our children are adults now. As we spend time together, we are often deep in conversation around a variety of topics which includes science, religion, sex, children, politics, the environment, food, exercise, etc.
Logan is employed as a director of technology but he started this blog with a focus on his journey with the Christian faith after the bombshell when his oldest son declared he was an atheist. While a majority of early writings here are related to the Christian faith, you’ll also find a hodge-podge of posts about technology, relationships, DYI projects, Excel spreadsheets and music. We hope that doesn’t scare you away, and that you’ll spend a little time with us.
Cheers!
“One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It is simply too painful to acknowledge — even to ourselves — that we’ve been so credulous. “

Logan, I just ran across your blog and read your story starting with part 4. We have much in common, and if you’re willing, I’d like to correspond with you. My story is at http://www.mountaintrail.us, and you can write me at [redacted].
Your blog is just the type of blog I’ve been looking to read. I started one of my own a few weeks ago, though I haven’t very much time to update it regularly. Thanks for sharing your journey. I plan to return and read more.
