Sheep vs Goats


Matthew 25:32-34:  "And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth 
his sheep from the goats: And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left. Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world."

Psalm 110:1:  "The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool."

Colossians 3:1:  "If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God."

From Bible Hub:

He will place the sheep on His right
"In biblical times, the right hand was often associated with favor, authority, and blessing. The imagery of sheep is significant throughout Scripture, symbolizing those who follow God and are part of His flock. In John 10:14, Jesus refers to Himself as the Good Shepherd, indicating a personal relationship with His followers. The placement of the sheep on the right signifies their acceptance and approval by Christ. This aligns with the cultural understanding of the right side as a place of honor, as seen in passages like Psalm 110:1, where the Messiah is invited to sit at the right hand of God."

and the goats on His left.
"Goats, in contrast to sheep, often symbolize those who are rebellious or not part of God's chosen people. In the cultural context of the time, goats were seen as more independent and less obedient than sheep. The left side, in biblical symbolism, is often associated with judgment or disfavor. This distinction between sheep and goats is a metaphor for the final judgment, where Christ will separate those who have followed Him from those who have not. This separation is echoed in other scriptures, such as Matthew 13:49, where the wicked are separated from the righteous. The imagery underscores the importance of living a life in accordance with Christ's teachings to be counted among the sheep."

Grok Review of The First Time I Rode a Freight Train & other hitchhiking stories



The First Time I Rode a Freight Train & Other Hitchhiking Stories by Tim Shey is a collection of short stories published in January 2012 by America Star Books. The book draws from Shey’s extensive experiences hitchhiking across the United States, a journey spanning over two decades, with a particular focus on his travels between 1980 and the early 2000s. A self-described Christian guided by the Holy Spirit, Shey recounts his adventures, including his rare freight-hopping experiences—having ridden only two trains, one in 1980 and another in 1983—alongside a multitude of hitchhiking tales. The 178-page paperback compiles 66 chapters, many of which originated as posts on Digihitch.com between 2009 and 2011, offering a raw, episodic glimpse into his nomadic life.

The stories capture moments of serendipity, hardship, and human connection, often set against the backdrop of America’s vast landscapes. For example, in "Marty the Stonemason," Shey describes being picked up by the same driver three years apart, first near Dillon, Montana, and later outside Jackson, Wyoming, highlighting the unexpected threads that tie his travels together. Another tale recounts his first freight train ride from Fremont, Nebraska, to Chapman near Grand Island in 1980, followed by sleeping in a pickup cab and hitching onward to Ames, Iowa. The narratives are straightforward, prioritizing personal reflection and spiritual undertones over elaborate description, with recurring themes of faith, simplicity, and divine providence.

Readers’ reactions, gleaned from online reviews, are mixed but reveal the book’s niche appeal. Some appreciate its unpolished authenticity and Shey’s gentle, faith-driven perspective, with one reviewer noting, "Both books are easy to read, amusing in parts but have an inspirational message of good will" (Amazon.ca, 2012). Others find it lacking depth, describing it as a "tedious log" of travels without broader insight into the places or people encountered. Shey’s minimalist style—short chapters, often just a page or two—suits those who enjoy concise, vignette-like storytelling but may frustrate readers seeking a more cohesive narrative.

Shey, born in 1960 in Iowa and holding a BA in English Literature from Iowa State University (1995), frames his hitchhiking as a calling, distinct from mere wanderlust. This book, alongside his earlier High Plains Drifter (2008), appeals to those intrigued by unconventional lifestyles, Christian memoirs, or the fading subculture of American road travel. While not a literary heavyweight, it offers an earnest, personal chronicle of a life lived on the margins, trusting in faith and the kindness of strangers.
