I have never gotten over being a son of God through my relationship with Jesus. It is probably related to what He saved me from. My heart goes out to those that are living with uncertainty and fear. We who know Jesus have so much to live for. I wanted to give a shout out… Continue Reading

Striving to be Thankful!
My guess would be that thankfulness does not come naturally for most of us. It seems we are more proficient at finding things that are wrong then celebrating all the good. It does not take much work to fixate on one thing that is not right and to ignore a multitude of things that… Continue Reading

I want to give a shout out to Pastor Berney for covering our time together this past Sunday. Caryl and I were attending church for our granddaughter’s dedication.

Be Still and KNOW that I Am God!

It could be politics, family, job, church or even our own unhappiness with life. The problem with getting sucked in is that it defines our world… Continue Reading
Thank You – Master Plan (Part 3)
I have always been what I could call “a Big Picture Person.” I actually function better when I have a big picture. The development of our church site was quite a challenge. The goal was to max out the available property by developing a master plan. The challenge was in trying to get a… Continue Reading
Finding Confidence in God’s Word
It is a bit of an overstatement to say that we are living during a time of great uncertainty. The virus with the cascading ramifications have struck our lives like a harsh winter storm. Unfortunately, the storm has not blown over, nor should we expect it to just go away. The challenge for the… Continue Reading
