Its About Giving
“But when the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit upon his glorious throne. All the nations will be gathered in his presence, and he will separate the people as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. He will place the sheep at his […]
I wasn’t prepared
Did you know that if you are eligible to vote in a general election but not for the primary you can still vote in the primary? At least that was the law back in 1988. That was the year I was first able to vote in an election and that was also a Presidential election year. I was […]
Actions speak louder than words
If you know Zach any at all then you know how much of a momma’s boy he is. He says always makes comments about how much he loves Misty more than me. But you know, it’s all talk. He makes this comment and that comment but if you pay attention then you know he loves […]
Prayer of Thanks.
God I just wanted to take a minute to say thanks for giving me the opportunity to help Mikaela. I hope that not only can we help him but at the same time I can teach my boys something about giving and the needs of others. It has given us chances to talk to them […]

Money, money money!
One of the things we have tried to get the boys to learn is how to be responsible with money. We have made some mistakes with money and as Dave Ramsey would say, we have paid our fair share of “Stupid Tax” We are in the process of cleaning it all up and are making […]
Don’t know what tomorrow will bring
Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. James 4:14 (NIV) This week has been nothing but a reminder of this verse. In one day a young worship leader who used to lead worship at my […]
He’s My King
2 Very early on the first day of the week, just after sunrise, they were on their way to the tomb 3 and they asked each other, “Who will roll the stone away from the entrance of the tomb?” 4 But when they looked up, they saw that the stone, which was very large, had been rolled away. 5 As they […]
