Happy President's Day. I hope you have this day off with pay! Relentless pursuit. I am not entirely sure what to make of Elon Musk. I do love the concept of D.O.G.E., although here-to-fore, the idea is an oxymoron. I am certain you remember that quote made famous by Ronald Reagan concerning the most terrifying words you [...]

I don't know if you have spent any time watching senate confirmation hearings, but assuming you have, I am reminded of this Scripture: "Let not the wise man boast in his wisdom, let not the mighty man boast in his might, let not the rich man boast in his riches, but let him who boasts [...]

I received a text late last night from my family informing that my father had passed away. He was 97 years of age and lived in good health his entire life. His body and mind just began to fail over this past year and he died peacefully of natural causes in his own home. Having outlived [...]

At his inauguration, President Trump mentioned that the next four years will be a "Golden Age" for America. As a proud American citizen, I "hope" that it is true as the last few years have been difficult for our faith family; those who believe in truth and justice. Themes of family, faith, and freedom were woven throughout [...]

Happy Inauguration Day! I am reminded this day of the passage from 2 Chronicles 7:11 - 22, claiming for this moment in time the promise of (v. 14), "If my people who are called by my name shall humble themselves and pray...then". I am prayerful that enough of God's people will continue to humble themselves before the almighty [...]

I read an article from In Touch Ministries a few days ago. The title was "Who Needs Patience?" The author commented: "The ability to wait is an essential spiritual discipline." I know that you remember that old bumper sticker..."Be Patient! God isn't done with me yet." The idea is certainly humorous, but it also reveals something about humankind. The author [...]

Well...another year has arrived. With it comes a strong desire to be prayerful. When I pray I somehow feel as if I am in control of something. There are many bizzare traditions surrounding the "ushering in of a new year" around the world; a quick google search will affirm this to be true. I read recently that [...]

Greetings from Tennessee - this the last Monday of 2024. Happy New Year!  May God grant us His favor and return to take us home to be with Him in 2025. As we leave 2024 behind and enter into another new year, I want to encourage you to make 2025 the year where you and I [...]

Merry Christmas! My granddaughter, who turns three today, is fascinated with the Angels that are so very prominent in the Biblical account of the birth of Jesus. As she was "helping" unpack tree ornaments last week, her priority was on finding the "angel topper". She had remembered that specific ornament from last year. Of course once we found it, she carefully supervised its [...]

I just love saying Merry Christmas; no Happy Holiday wishes out here where we live in Tennessee. As we creep ever closer to celebrating Christmas 2024 we all know individuals and families that are struggling with loss and find it difficult to rejoice in the Good News. For so many, Christmas is just a hard season to endure. [...]
