                    AFRAID TO FAIL
Back when Joe Garagiola was a catcher in the major leagues, he had a young pitcher out on the mound who had just come up from the team’s farm club. It was his first time ever to pitch in the majors. The first two batters he faced had both gotten hits, and now were on second and

                    I’m a terrible typist. I’m old enough to have taken typing class in high school when that kind of thing was taught, but I never thought that I would need to be proficient on a keyboard; so I bowed out. Typing was not in my future. But here I am on a keyboard just about every workday hunting and

                    The problem is that the church that fails to change fails to impact the culture of change. It becomes a dinosaur, a memorial to a world that no longer exists. So, on the one hand, while it protects those within its walls from overwhelming stress, on the other hand, it becomes biblically and

A mother kept a candle burning in the window every night for ten years.  One night, very late, a poor wretched woman came in from the street.  The aged mother said to her, "Sit down by the fire."
The stranger asked, "Why do you keep the light in the window?"  The old mother
