Hearing Problems
Have your ears ever gotten you into trouble? While we’re aware of times when our words, thoughts or emotions have gotten us into trouble, we seldom think of the problems caused by our ears. All too often we passively listen to things that pollute or poision us, not realizing the damage being done and the […]

Teach – able!
What have you learned lately? Learning is a prerequisite to growing. It’s one of the most important activities we can engage in. President Harry Truman said, “It’s what you learn after you know it all that counts.” This statement identifies one of the greatest hindrances to learning — pride! One of the marks of pride […]

Childcare
On Tuesday, May 15, 2012 my wife and I had the privilege of welcoming our 5th grandchild into the world. Zoe is a beautiful little girl!

A Choice That Changes Your LIfe
There’s a very important and attractive attribute that’s quite rare in people today. It’s something we’re generally taught to be at a young age, but somehow forget and forfeit as time passes.

Blessed By Friends
Friendships are one of the great gifts in life. Having good people in your life you can count on is a wonderful blessing. Being the kind of friend that others can count on is rewarding. Unfortunately we sometimes fail to invest the time and energy into our relationships that they deserve. Our busyness and preoccupation […]

Are You Sure?
While the Bible contains instructions, commands and principles of wisdom, it’s also filled with promises. In many ways the Bible is a promise book from God to us. There are great promises of salvation, provision, help, deliverance, healing, strength and blessings. One example is found in God’s word to His people when they were facing […]

Whole Life
Compartmentalization. It’s a big word, but an important one to understand. It’s something lots of people do. And when we do, it causes problems for us spiritually, emotionally and relationally. To compartmentalize is to divide life into parts and to make an assumption that one part doesn’t affect the other parts. We mentally segment our […]

Qualifying For Blessing
Great blessings come to people who simply show up and faithfully do what they’ve been asked to do. When we’re where we’re supposed to be, doing what we’re supposed to be doing, some really amazing things happen. In the New Testament book of Acts we find a great story about a group of folks who […]

Sing, Sing, Sing!
Everybody’s a singer, or at least a “wannabe” singer! Singing is a natural human expression. We sing happy songs, sad songs, love songs, songs that tell stories, songs that ask questions and songs that make statements. The greatest singer in the Bible was King David. He’s known as the “sweet singer of Israel.” As a […]
