On one trip to India, my friend Masi hosted me at his home and made a point of asking me to wake him if I needed to visit the out door bathroom in the night. Well, he slept so soundly, and I had my own flashlight so I went outside on my own in the night to tend to things. The next time I was there,

Back when I was still wet behind the ears in my 1st ministry, our church had a joint VBS with one of the denominational churches in town. I liked their preacher, but I made the mistake of letting him give the invitation. His church sprinkled babies and ours only baptized adults… so he was a little

A few years ago my neighbor was going to sell his house and move to a larger house with more land. He and his wife were very excited in the beginning and even put down a very large deposit. They kept their house because they needed a place to live while the newer house was being built. If all

My wife Christina and I came here to visit First Congregational Church in December of 2006 to candidate and interview for the position of Pastor. Some of you may recall what the church sign on the grass in front of the building had displayed on it that December…
It said “What is missing in this

This week my brother-in-law, Bob, and his family stopped by to see us on their way to South Padre. They were full of enthusiasm as they looked forward to getting away from the grind. Four days later they stopped by again on their way back to San Angelo. The funny thing is, they looked worn out.

I may have mentioned that I love my wife’s cooking. I am always amazed at the way she simply just knows exactly what to do and what to put in the dish. She follows a recipe as a guide rather than an instruction manual. She does things and puts things together, I would think were completely wrong,

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

I went fishing one time with my uncle out on the sound in North Carolina. He had a boat and he used to set nets in the morning and go back in the late afternoon to get his fish.
In this particular case, there had been a run of fish that he couldn’t stand, a type of shad. He wanted croakers and
