    Is seeing believing? Or are there things that are very real that we cannot see? Our garage doors open by unseen forces at the touch of a button.

    Church Fights I’m told that there is a church in Texas that debated over the issue of telling a lie. Some felt that there were some occasions in which a little white lie was acceptable.

    I love to cook. The only problem is that many of the things I like to cook are things that my wife does not particularly care to eat. I like to cook things in a crock pot or in a pressure cooker.

    I’ve often admired the mate-ship that’s found among soldiers. I imagine that entrusting your life into the hands of your mates while in the heat of battle is an experience that forges incredibly strong friendships. You’ve faced death together, and may even owe your life to one another. There seems ...read more

    FIRE OF DISCIPLESHIP I love to make a campfire. Many years ago I remember going on a fishing trip in the mountains of Arizona.
