I went to a gun show over the weekend, looking for a specific pistol or a concealed carry holster.
I did a sweep of the whole place, looking at guns mostly.

Happy Birthday, Lindz!
Linda and Lindsey in January 1983
We love Him because He first loved us. 1 John 4:19
Last night, while lying in bed, Linda and I began discussing the events of 30 years ago.
It was 1983 and about 2 o’clock in the morning she began to have some abdominal pains. They were intense enough to warrant waking me up. Continue reading
It’s Simple!
For the past two mornings I’ve faced problems with both of my radio transmitters.
First it was ice, not a real problem since the transmitter did just what it was suppose to – automatically fold back the power to keep from damaging the circuitry.
But then both transmitters shut down and I struggled with getting either back on-the-air. Continue reading

The Great Titanic vs A GREAT GOD!
I want to continue with the thought from yesterday, using an article from Worldnetdaily.
The designers of the Titanic were so sure that it couldn’t sink that they made no provision for such a disaster. They had so much faith in themselves and their design of the ocean liner, that they hardly gave the need for lifeboats a second thought.
The overconfidence of the Titanic designers wasn’t amendable. They couldn’t fix the problem of the sinking ship after it struck the iceberg. It was too late because there was no second chance. When they called for help, none came. Continue reading
Now Showing: The Universe! Created by God – Directed by God
I remember the first time I heard the word “agnostic”. It was a girlfriend’s dad that used it was we sat around the table. I had become a Christian and was sharing my faith.
I remember him saying, “I’m really an agnostic!” I had to ask, “What is that?” Continue reading
