Jim passed this morning

Life has a way of becoming stunningly obvious at times. Take last week for example. My driving assignments have slowed since the Christmas rush has subsided. Not to fear, the Apainter Paul is getting some big painting jobs he needs help with. Last week we were painting an exterior in Frisco. We finished the back… Continue reading Jim passed this morning

A DEDICATION REQUEST

Elkanah sat at the table after serving everybody. He looked at his favorite wife. “Hannah, why aren’t you eating? I’ve given you twice as much as anyone else. Don’t let the food go to waste.” Peninnah snickered. “I don’t know why you throw the food to a dog like that. She’s only eating for one.… Continue reading A DEDICATION REQUEST

Who Really Believed that Overgrown Underground Rodent Anyway?

As I recall Phil said there was going to be six more weeks of winter on February 2nd. You know…that groundhog in Pennsylvania. So why are we in the 70’s and 80’s here in Texas already? I’ve even seen where it’s in the 70’s back in Michigan…and it’s only the middle of the month. I… Continue reading Who Really Believed that Overgrown Underground Rodent Anyway?

This Week I Lingered at Linger

This past Friday and Saturday Stonebriar Community Church hosted the 2017 Linger Conference. Why do they call it the Linger Conference? I wondered the same thing until I received an email from the man in charge when I offered to volunteer for setting up on Thursday. The email came from none other than Chris Linger.… Continue reading This Week I Lingered at Linger

TESTING GOD

Gideon tapped the heads of wheat against the rim of the winepress. The pile inside looked like enough for about two ephahs. He glanced over his shoulder. I hope the Midianites don’t find me here. They shouldn’t since grape harvest won’t occur for a few more months. A minute later he looked around. He caught himself… Continue reading TESTING GOD

The Donald and the Constitution

I’m taking a chance and diving into the political arena with this post. Humor will hopefully get folks to breathe a bit as they watch the video I recorded here. I pray the message of chilling comes through as much as the call for action to protect those without a voice. I’ve held my tongue… Continue reading The Donald and the Constitution

How Did You Ring in the New Year?

Okay. A show of hands, who watched the ball drop on New Years’ Eve? If you’re in Idaho did you watch the potato drop? They actually do that there. The country bumpkin in me believes it. Full confession…I didn’t even consider it this time around. I witnessed too many midnights in 2016 to stay up… Continue reading How Did You Ring in the New Year?

I Wish God’s Will for the New Year

I’ve seen a lot of wishes for happiness and good things from well-meaning folks. As a born-again believer I’m not comfortable in making those types of wishes. By taking a more eternal view of how God sees things I think you’ll see what I mean. Watch my video for a more thorough explanation. I’ll see… Continue reading I Wish God’s Will for the New Year

WE’RE DOOMED

Joshua waited for his spies to return from Ai. “So, what do you think? Can we take it?” One of the men nodded. “Ai isn’t anywhere near as big as Jericho. We’ll only need two or three thousand men to wipe them out.” Joshua nodded once. “Good. That’s what I was thinking, too. Choose three… Continue reading WE’RE DOOMED
