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. [...]

Merry Christmas from Tennessee! I recently read an article from InTouch Ministries entitled "For the Troubled Heart". The premise was that the pressures and burdens of life don't have to result in despair. Although Thanksgiving and Christmas are marvelous occasions to celebrate the blessings God has given, especially the birth of our Savior, these same occasions can also be VERY difficult for [...]

I trust you had a wonderful Thanksgiving with Family and Friends! Now ... on to Merry Christmas! Last week we spent a little time meditating on this passage from Psalm 127 "Unless the Lord builds the house, they labor in vain who build it; unless the Lord guards the city, the watchman stays awake in vain." As INTENTIONAL Men [...]

Happy Thanksgiving! I am "fixin" to celebrate my first Thanksgiving in Tennessee. As you know, Thanksgiving is a uniquely American Celebration; it exists for one simple reason. The Pilgrims, who founded the Plymouth Plantation (Modern day Massachusetts) in 1620, were so grateful to have survived their first year in this new land that they put together [...]

With Thanksgiving just around the corner, I pause to ponder the ramifications of this uniquely American celebration. As I mentioned last week, the official commencement of Thanksgiving was a Presidential Proclamation by Theodore Roosevelt in 1903. "In no other time has the experiment of government, of the people, by the people, and for the people, [...]

Well...as I sit down to write this blog the day after the 2024 election I confess to having a little faith restored in our Constitutional Republic. The Denison Forum comments: "Elective democracy both expresses and forges our national character. It is the natural outgrowth of our founding creed that 'all men are created equal...' offering [...]

Good Morning Men of Intention, One day left before elections in America! It is not an exaggeration to say that the whole world is closely watching. Regardless of the outcome, I like to think of tomorrow as just another day closer to the Rapture of the Church. But until that day, men of INTENTION know that we are [...]

"In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through Him all things were made; without Him nothing was made that has been made" (John 1:1 - 3). Last week we experienced a Hunter Moon, the largest supermoon we'll see all year. Where [...]

Good Morning Men of Intention, In John 14:6 Jesus plainly states that He is the WAY, the TRUTH, and the LIFE. Make no mistake, by using the definite article THE, Jesus was clear that there is NO OTHER way, truth or pathway to life. Fast forward to the end of Jesus' earthly ministry and we find Him appearing before Pontius Pilate (John 18:38) who questions the [...]

The war being waged against Israel has surpassed one year. In that time since Hamas launched their offensive the IDF has all but eliminated their capacity to wage war. The ability of Hezbollah to be on the offensive has also been dramatically altered, and Iran itself has been ineffectual here-to-fore in their off-repeated mission to [...]
