This is a song I wrote and recorded somewhere around 2002-2004. I’m posting it in response to a request from Kyle – thanks for asking! This is my take on people who loudly proclaim themselves Christian and yet are mean and judgmental. from Matthew 25 42 I was hungry but you would not feed me, […]

It was a song from my CD “Homemade Fun”. The artwork from the cover is shown to the right. This somewhat satirical country song is my […]
