A Note From My Preacher Son In Florida

PRAYER REQUEST: with Hurricane Matthew bearing down on us over the next several days, we are preparing to move into a local shelter (Pineridge High School, Deltona, FL).

Happy Easter Morning

Happy memories include my sons singing this praise song at our Easter Sunday morning worship service at our church in Kansas City years ago. They sang well together and back then often sang together.

Precious Lord

I can't help being sad. Joey Feek of Country Music's Joey & Rory died today after a long bout with cancer. Such a beautiful young wife and mother, with a beautiful smile, a beautiful spirit. She leaves her loving husband and baby daughter, who has Down's Syndrome, to go on without her. She sang as... Sign in to see full entry.

His Promised Peace

Where is the promised peace... when fear or pain attack my heart? when anxieties are stirred by imaginations sharpest jabs, and everything goes wrong?

I Can't Seem To Forget

In a life that I call long, there have been many instances that for a time I have held a grudge, felt a need to forgive and forget and move on.

One Hundred Percent Human

How easy it is to get into the habit of looking longingly for tomorrow, instead of living fully in this moment, on this day.

Gone Astray

Where have I been? I think I got lost from some of my blogs, this one in particular. It seems that I have skipped from #16 to #25. Just call me TAPS Van Winkle.

This teaching of Jesus from the Sermon on the Mount is surely meant as a parable, or fable, or have symbolic meaning, surely--- for I can't imagine someone really doing that.....
