About the BA

The Bearded Acorn is a blog that is dedicated to sharing Bible truth, humor, satire, and an occasional poem or haiku (yes, really) . The aim is to demonstrate that truth and life, and enjoying both, intertwine –or tangle up– daily. The Bearded Acorn is the brain sneeze of Joseph Smotherman — a Christ-follower, pharmacist, runner, outdoorsy guy, upstart writer, and most importantly, the role that he cherishes most…a dad.
