Imagine yourself walking up to two big doors one cold morning in January. The door on the left is pure craftsmanship. It’s a rich, cobalt blue with pure silver handles and hinges. There’s a leaded crystal, mirrored window just high enough that you can only see the top of your head. The door on the right appears to be made of old, cracked, and … The rest of the story…

He showed up with a servitude heart. And that was no small detail. Because he was actually a king. No, that’s not quite accurate. He was THE king. Of the whole universe, in fact. But He showed up here in our dirty, little world with a mission to make things right. And His actions, over and over, proved He came here to serve, not … The rest of the story…
I saw an interesting boomer description this morning. The writer made this list and the comment that followed: We drive used cars; Live in modest homes; Prepare our own meals – no meal services; Brew our own coffee; Grow gardens; Shop sales; Don’t consume to make others think we’re rich We aren’t celebrating that young folks can’t afford homes. Many of us have our … The rest of the story…
I hope you avoid the boomer pharmacy like the plague (How do you like my ironic twist of a phrase, there?). If you’re not a boomer, then obviously that reference doesn’t apply to you. But no matter. Because whatever Gen this or Gen that you are, I hope you also avoid the pharmacy trap. My guess is, you won’t. Tragically the boomer pharmacy already … The rest of the story…
Every year, there are highly effective assassins paid off roughly 500 million, in your tax dollars, to make sure innocent, preborn babies never see the light of day. Yeah, that group is well- organized, well-funded, and well-equipped to kill over 300,000 little children every year. Let’s face it. They get the job done. So, why would anybody wanna rock that boat? Especially when it … The rest of the story…
Biblical knowledge is available to anyone who’s interested in finding out more. And the key points, and truth, of the Bible are easy enough to understand that even a child can learn about the love of our Creator. And that’s more important to know and understand than anything else anyone will ever learn. Good thing Biblical knowledge isn’t being kept under a basket somewhere. … The rest of the story…
What I’m about to share probably isn’t for you. But I can almost guarantee it’s good for someone you know or care about. It’s something I shared with others a few years ago. And I asked them this question: If I told you to leave your troubles behind and move forward, what would you do? Get mad at me and say “NO!” Would you … The rest of the story…
What do you believe God couldn’t or wouldn’t help you through? Of course, I mean things that don’t go against His nature and word. Do you think financial problems are out of the question? Family squabbles? Job pressures? With all the people in the world, surely there’s an end to His patience and understanding. Right? Well, yes. And no. He DOES make promises to … The rest of the story…
It was about 2,000 years ago. And today doesn’t mark the exact day and time. But that’s another topic for later. Nevertheless some shepherds were on the job, whatever day and time it was. And their job was to watch over their flock of sheep. As they stood under the night sky, a host of angels appeared and told them to follow that curious … The rest of the story…
Over the years I’ve written some Christmas songs. And one of them became one of my favorite Christmas songs. Hey, who says a songwriter can’t like his own music? Not me, that’s who. Yes, it’s perfectly fine to have enough ego to admit you like something you create. It would be kinda stupid to be creating stuff you didn’t like. Where’s the good in … The rest of the story…
