Have you ever been doing something difficult and knew you had the answer to making it easier available? This was a constant struggle for me in college, I did all my classes online and the answers to the questions were always readily available on the internet. Which is good and in this instance a very […]
What’s Wrong With The Ten Commandments Anyway?
Several years ago, I had a bit of a heated conversation with my grown son about “religion”. He was going on about how religion was to blame for almost all the wars that have ever happened and how a lot of religious people are such hypocrites. This was at a time when there was a […]
Available
This past week while sitting in my daughter’s gymnastics class, I had an experience with God. I was listening to worship music and scrolling along on my phone when the song “Christ Be Magnified” by Cody Carnes came on. Right there, in the middle of all the other moms quietly passing the time, it was […]
Flying by the Seat of God’s Pants
Many of us have experienced a roller coaster ride or another death-defying amusement park apparatus at some point. Some consider it to be most exhilarating, to others it can be unnerving, and for some, it is a mixture of both. There are those that will not step on any kind of ride. I commend […]

Nothing Else

Leaving a Legacy
What do you want to be remembered for after your gone? Not the type of question most of us spend a lot of time thinking about because it’s not a pleasant topic…dying and all. The idea came up in a recent Bible study and I listened to a podcast that asked this question recently so […]
“April Fools!”
It’s April Fool’s Day! Today, jokesters everywhere are playing tricks on each other. Hopefully all in good fun with no harm done. I love a good prank just as much as the next guy. Especially when I’m the one doing the pranking! On this day, however, I feel led to remind you that there is […]
