"Encouraging Christians to say "YES" to God everyday"

  • Be Grounded!

    “I am so thankful that you are steady and grounded.”  She is dependable, self-aware, and faithful to the calling God gave. The wild swings of emotion that make life stormy for some do not rule her life. She is capable of being warm, loving, joyful, sorrowful, but her emotions enrich her life, not govern it. […]

  • Be Light!

    As the sun slipped down over the horizon to the west a big, beautiful orb of light appeared in the east.  The moon was glowing, shedding soft light where I stood in the gathering night.  That nightlight is not nearly as bright as the sun, but it a reassuring presence in the night sky, something […]

  • Be Real!

    Social media is a mixed blessing.  It is a great way to communicate, share ideas, and connect.  It is also unbelievably ‘fake.’ A ‘selfie’ (pictures of one’s self in case you didn’t know) can be taken over and over until just right tilt of the head, sweep of the hair, and smile is in place.

  • Be Wise!

    In an earlier time of life I confused intelligence and knowledge with wisdom. I thought if I ‘knew enough’ it was enough. Hopefully; God, time, and experience has brought me greater wisdom!

  • Belonging to the truth

    Being deceived or scammed is as old as time. Every year thousands of people loose large sums of money to schemes of those who steal through deception. We are almost to the end of an election cycle and I will be so glad to see those commercials that take fragments of truth and weave them […]

    Have you ever started a project, a new job, took on a challenge only to experience real doubts about your ability to finish it? In 1977, Bev and I believed that God was giving us a new assignment for ministry in a town 2,000 miles away from home. Full of dreams and faith, but mostly […]

  • EOTWAWKI? (Translation? See last line!)

    The election hype, the dire warnings are issued by both sides promising that our country is doomed if the other guy is elected. Are there differences between the Republicans and the Democrats? Sure there are, more than ever, with our very divided nation. Will the election of one party or the other have a real […]

  • A Thoughtful Faith

    It’s election season and those awful commercials are back, you know the ones that address complex issues in just 30 seconds. Illegal immigration, which is a real issue with many causes, both economic and political, becomes about ‘them,’ those who are ‘different.’  Our current economic state resulting from multiple causes both foreign and domestic, is […]
