  • Fanatical Animal War

    Saturday mornings make for some good times with 2 little boys. This morning a serious war broke out. 2 dinosaurs took on 10 farm animals which took on 10 African safari animals which took on 12 mini primates. It was awesome!

  • Tiger Woods’ apology

    There is a lot that has been said about Tiger’s public apology.  I don’t have many thoughts or comments about it. Here is what I came away thinking after his speech – the Bible is so true! The Bible says “all have sinned.”                            The Bible says “no one understands.” The Bible says “the heart is deceitful above…

  • Listen first!

    We have all been in the situation when someone is trying to tell us something we need to hear and we can hardly hear what they are saying because we will not be quiet longing enough. We must get our 2 cents in. (Perhaps you have been on both sides: sometimes you are the one…

  • baby gorilla

    This is a picture I took from my cell phone of a mother gorilla holding her new baby. It was born February 6th at the Louisville Zoo. It was so amazing to observe this mother and baby.

  • the poor

    Our church just finished reading the entire New Testament. I was amazed how much Jesus and Paul both speak about caring for the poor. In America, we do not see many poor people.

  • Happy Valentine’s Day, Valeria!

    I am thankful to God for the precious wife He has given me. I love Valeria! Happy Valentine’s Day!

  • What will be said at your funeral?

    Lately, I have been a part of a lot of funerals.  This is both good and bad for obvious reasons. I enjoy observing and preaching funeral services. They cause me to really think about many different things. Here are 2 good thoughts. What will be said at your funeral? What will all of the people…

  • Book of Life

    Spend some time thinking on these verses… and be strengthened! Revelation 13:8 “All who dwell on earth will worship it, everyone whose name has not been written before the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb who was slain.” Revelation 17:8 “and the dwellers on earth whose names have not…

  • What does a snow day look like for you?

    Please leave a comment telling me how you spend your snow day? For the third time this winter already, we have a good accumulation of snowfall. We have over 6 inches already, and it continues to snow heavily. Notice how hard it is snowing. Also, listen closely for JJ asking me if I like it?…
