I was reminded of a story I read once about a mother who would listen with her young children to an instructional program on the radio each morning. She particularly enjoyed the exercise class. One day she tuned in late, only to hear an energetic instructor already urging pupils along at a fast

When I was in Atlanta I saw a young lady with blue hair and bright red streaked hair with yellow mixed underneath setting on a bench.
-She had ear rings, nose rings, eyebrow rings and a lip ring. I went over to talk to her. I told her that I liked her hair. (I really did -she looked nice.)

As I was getting ready to come to church today, I was helping my son to get a bath -- and quite frankly, he didn’t want to have a bath, especially because he couldn’t sit and play in the tub for awhile. And so he resisted and complained and made it difficult -- but we struggled through it and got

I remember when I was a young child having a conversation with my grandmother while we walked down the street one day. I asked her if she was going to heaven when she died, and she replied that she hoped so. Now here is a lady who had probably been in church all her life, held many offices and has

I tried counting backwards, I tried counting sheep.
The leftovers beckoned-- the dark meat and white,
But I fought the temptation with all of my might.
Tossing and turning with anticipation,
The thought of a snack became infatuation.
So, I raced to the kitchen, flung open the door
And gazed at

Since I was a little shy when I was in high school, I didn’t ask many girls out on dates. So my friend came up to me one day and said, “Hey, I’ve lined you up with a great date for Saturday night. It’s all set.”
“Who is it?” I asked. It turned out to be his cousin Doris. I had never met her. In

All I really need to know I learned in kindergarten.
All I really need to know about how to live and what to do and how to be I learned in kindergarten. Wisdom was not at the top of the graduate-school mountain, but there in the sandpile at Sunday School. These are the things I learned. Share

I can remember a time while I was a young and poor college student of being invited to preach at a church without a pastor. I was to preach and my wife was to sing in the morning worship service and also in the evening service. I was about eighty miles from home. After the service all of the

I remember when I first started training to be a pilot. I was a young pastor and lived in Labrador in the north east part of Canada. The church purchased a bush plane to be used for outreach in parts of the region where there were no churches of any kind so I needed to learn to fly. On my very

I remember as a child, my brother, sister and I used to ‘play house’ outside. Dad had built us a playhouse and we spent many days out there. Like most kids who would play house always had to make something to eat – right?
So there we would go. Gotta have a little water to mix in with that dirt –

As I was driving one foggy night, I topped a hill and I could see through the fog for a moment. What an awesome sight! The clouds were scurrying along at a rather quick pace, accross the face of the huge moon that seemed to softly light up the entire sky. Quite a change from driving in that fog

When I was very young, I remember swimming at a lake during a Gregory family reunion. I know, the thought of such a reunion is more than some of you can stomach. At the lake, there was a dock. I would walk a little ways out on the dock, jump in the water, and then walk back to shore. Each time
