  • My Dad – The Legend

    My Dad – The Legend

    I may not be the most eloquent writer, and I know that sometimes my words can be misunderstood. Right now, as I write, I am overcome with both joyful memories and the sorrow that comes with seeing the final chapters of an extraordinary life. What follows are a few reflections I’ve gathered during this season.…

  • A New Nature

    The usual start to the prayer meeting was to gather early, maybe make some coffee or share some type of snack and swap stories or events of the day or week. Typically the group would splinter off into sub groups as the gathering grew. Occasionally, however, the attendance would be smaller and everyone just stayed…

  • What are we doing?

    What are we doing?

    I wrote to you in my letter not to associate with sexually immoral people— not at all meaning the sexually immoral of this world, or the greedy and swindlers, or idolaters, since then you would need to go out of the world. But now I am writing to you not to associate with anyone who bears the…

  • UNITY

    “I do not ask for these only, but also for those who will believe in me through their word, that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me. (John…

    Conspiracies Abound

    For the LORD spoke thus to me with his strong hand upon me, and warned me not to walk in the way of this people, saying: “Do not call conspiracy all that this people calls conspiracy, and do not fear what they fear, nor be in dread. But the LORD of hosts, him you shall…

  • The Lord’s Work? 

    In a recent political campaign, one of the candidates in my state advertised that everyone should get out and vote. On this I agree, however, he didn’t stop there because he tied voting to “doing the Lord’s work”. I will steer clear of the person. The point here is that, politics is not “the Lord’s…

  • Never Before

    Yet there shall be a distance between you and it, about 2,000 cubits in length. Do not come near it, in order that you may know the way you shall go, for you have not passed this way before.” Then Joshua said to the people, “Consecrate yourselves, for tomorrow the LORD will do wonders among…

  • Go and Tell

    As always, I have to start over and over. I have been busy with family, work, church and life in general. Recently, on a suggestion from a friend, I began limiting my time on social media, namely Facebook. It seems that everyone, no matter what side of the street they are on, are at a…

  • Rewind

    I was reviewing some old writings I had done in the past and came across this one from 2010. Sometimes I see myself as “corny” in these but, it was an interesting thought and I wanted to share it. Some of these thoughts and ideas come from Dare2Share and I should give them the credit!…

  • Don’t Judge Me…

    This has been a long road to conclude the little mini-series on “God Speaks”. As I have written and re-written the final piece, I struggled with all that is going on and being said in the world today. One thing I find interesting is the idea that “I can be the master of my destiny” followed…
