I talked with an old high school friend yesterday!
His wife has been diagnosed with cancer but we know that Jesus can heal.
Our conversation drifted along and Van finally said, “I need to do like you and quit Farm-Ville!” Continue reading

What Should Work For One Should Work For The Other
I was up at 1am last night…this morning…whenever!
The alarm at the church went off in the sanctuary.
Once I arrived, a quick survey of the windows indicated no breakage there so it was internal and probably a bug or something on one of the motion sensors. Continue reading
Anything Can Be Fixed
I told a couple last night that I can fix anything!
That’s a pretty big statement and deals more with life and relationships than it does mechanics and electronics. Continue reading
Your Testimony Overcomes Satan
Something else happened at church camp that was really awesome.
Last year, several of the ‘kids’ gave their testimonies; my Courtney and JC were 2 of them.
Night one – no testimonies.
Night two – no testimonies.
Then on day 3, Courtney told us she was 1 year old. Continue reading
A Great Reward
Last week’s church camp brought me into the reality of what each of us is capable of in the kingdom of God.
On the first day a young lady walked up to me, waving and smiling.
“Do you remember me?” she asked. Continue reading
Finding What Is Lost
I guess you know I wasn’t around to do a Morning Thoughts most of last week. I was at church camp with my peeps.
There is only one spot on campus that you can do any internet from and that’s outside the main office with a laptop running on battery power, so I opted not to do it.
Needless to say, today’s Morning Thought something that is leftover from last week. Continue reading

She is 14 today.
I’ve known Court since she was about 5 or 6; it seems like I’ve known her all her life.
I know she was so excited about turning 14. Continue reading
The Power Of God's Word
Though I know the strength of God’s word, it never fails to amaze me the power that it has over people.
While we banter about with idle words of thought, philosophy, and political views, we get nowhere.
But when we introduce the living word of God, we began to see a difference and change in those we speak to. Continue reading
God's Will In All Things
What is the will of God when it comes to going to the movies as a Christian, joining a club, social drinking, attending church, and all the other everyday little choices you have?
No matter what you do the Bible says this, “whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy — meditate on these things.” Phil 4:8 Continue reading
God's Will For Believers
When I look at John 6:40, I see God’s will for unbelievers; that they should be saved.
When I look at Romans 12, I see God’s will for believers; Continue reading
