Texas has some extremely diverse landscapes. If you love the ocean life we can deliver it with, or without, a barrier island. If you prefer hills and trees the east side is for you. Vast farm land is in our western counties. Rugged hills are in our mid-section. I live in Plano. It was so… Continue reading El Paso Lessons From an 18-wheeler Driver

Can one person really enjoy teaching himself new things from the Bible? Stonebriar Community Church is the organization I chose to be included in their membership. Therefore,… Continue reading The 2016 Stonebriar Men’s Retreat is in the Books as Another Winner
There is at least one advantage to living a non-routine life
God calls some folks to live ordinary lives. He ordains them to be accountants because they like working with numbers and helping people keep their taxes straight. He makes some to enjoy playing with Dremmel tools in victims’ mouths so they’re dentists their entire working lives. Farmers love working the soil and watching plants and… Continue reading There is at least one advantage to living a non-routine life

Can an Old Country Bumpkin Really Succeed Today?
The more I attempt to try new things the more I’m convinced I just need to find a team of folks who know what they’re doing. Case in point: I recorded my first Facebook Live event last week.

A Voice From a Fire
“Come along fellas. We need to eat the top of the mountain and work down. Most of you know that.” Moses looked back. The sheep were following him up the trail.

A Final Assurance
Jacob looked at all the carts, sacks of grain and animals before he stared at his sons. Simeon’s face was too sad for a proper reunion. “What is the meaning of all this stuff?” Benjamin walked up to his dad and grasped Jacob’s shoulders. “Joseph sent them. He wants us to bring you to him.”… Continue reading A Final Assurance
Military Bootcamps Have Age Restrictions for a Reason
I never enlisted into military service when I was younger. Now, I’m pretty sure I’m “over qualified” to do so. I say that because they have age restrictions in place to protect the enlistee and the government agency in charge. Very few 55 year olds can withstand the physical rigors of eight weeks of bootcamp… Continue reading Military Bootcamps Have Age Restrictions for a Reason
