These past few months have been hard; emotionally and mentally hard. I’ve put off writing this blog for a couple of weeks because I would prefer to be positive and say all is well and all is good. Yet, saying “life is hard” somehow seems a bit defeating. Still, life…

All days aren’t spectacular. Yet, all days are a miracle of their own. How do we balance our perspective with the seemingly boring versus the mystery and awe of a new day? How do we find God through the mundane of everyday life? There are days that go by quickly…

It’s been an interesting few months in our household. I’m not really sure how to describe it all except to say that we have been able to see God working in our lives in so many ways. Of course, we have been looking to God for Him to provide answers….

Disagreements. Hardache. Beliefs. Hatred. Confusion. I’m not sure there are many happy stories to tell about Gettysburg, PA back in the Civil War.

While visiting New York City this summer, we took the time to visit the 9/11 Memorial. I really did not know what to expect as this was my first time in NYC. The ony reference of the twin towers I had was movies and pictures; mainly, TV newscasts of that…

Easter has come and gone. We are in the 50-day waiting period before Pentecost; when the Holy Spirit was given to us. I don’t know about you, but I don’t like to wait. I don’t like to wait because that usually means I’m not in control. After Jesus rose from…

I’m not a big fan of Good Friday services. I struggle to dwell in the unhappy and uncomfortable times of Jesus dying on the cross. I don’t like how it feels and I know the end of the story, so why put myself through that? I don’t like being sad…

Every year since our kids have been in the teen group, our family attends a southeast region competition held at Trevecca Nazarene University. This competition consists of both arts and sports and there are almost 2,000 kids competing. It is a busy time and a tiring weekend to be sure….

Yesterday in Sunday School we were discussing “It is Finished” written by Jason Nelson and David Dorn. This was a series we recently found on RightNowMedia.org about the Lenten season. As I was preparing the lesson, the discussion was around “thirst” and how Jesus cried out on the cross, “I…
