Since its Father’s Day I would like to share with you two things that you will never hear a man say on Father’s Day. You would never hear a father say to his son, “…here are the keys to my brand new truck, and here is my platinum Master Card… go wild!” And you would never hear a father say to his

I have shared a few other memories of my trip to Israel. We were in Israel for two weeks, which included two weekends. During that time we experienced two days of “Shabbat” which of course is the Sabbath.
For Jews, the new day actually begins with sunset. So, the Shabbat began about 6:00 on Friday

Let me share astory about the folded up cloth that was e-mailed to me this week: Why did Jesus fold the napkin? An unusual approach to a biblical story. Why did Jesus fold the linen burial cloth after His resurrection? I used to ask this question and other Bible Scholars did not know the answer.

And I have something else to say it. We share the same story as this crippled man did: we can’t walk and others carry us. The pastor, the elders, church board, somebody from your family… your religion is a second hand religion. Others are carrying you… You are just passive watcher, crippled

It’s interesting how we share faith. We all have our own way based on our own abilities. I have always been impressed with those who can quote the appropriate scripture in times of crisis. My sister, Jean, can do that. My pastor in San Antonio, Texas, could do that. I just can’t do that. I’m

I’d like to share a poem I found. It’s called “The Perfect Church,” written anonymously. It says:
“I think that I shall never see A church that’s all it ought to be; A church that has no empty pews, Whose preacher never has the blues; A church whose deacons always “deke”, And none is proud but

I want to share one more time from our trip. On the ship, we had an inside cabin. There were two long hallways running the length of the ship that had access to cabins on either side. The cabins along one side all were on the outside and therefore had windows. The cabins on the other side were
