  • Got A Minute?

    I am a pretty avid procrastinator. It’s an issue. There are goals I keep failing to reach, projects I keep failing to complete. On the other hand, I am on my second binging of all nine seasons of The Office for 2018. So yeah, I do have it in me to finish something. Anyway, I…

  • Written In Your Book

    Last Friday evening I got a phone call that a dear friend and former co-worker, Maria, had passed away suddenly. We were all stunned. Maria was the kind of person who was always full of life, always carried joy with her, always had a smile. It was (and still is) hard to wrap our minds…

  • Four Thoughts for Holy Week

    Holy Week is an opportunity for us to take the time to clear away the clutter and busy of our lives to focus on those things that are of eternal importance. So often our thoughts and hearts get distracted by things that don’t feed our souls. This week, I am making the time to meditate…

  • Writing Your Life’s Story

    One day we will blink and this life we know will be over. While we still have a chance, let’s love with a pure heart, because only a pure heart can break through the darkness in our world. Let’s laugh with the joy and gladness that comes from lasting goodness, and not merely passing fancy.…

  • A Life Well-Lived

    In the months approaching this half-century mark of my life, it has come to my attention with increasing frequency that we do not get any do-overs when it comes to the time that we are given to spend this side of eternity.  And, I will admit, I waste a lot of it.  I don’t like…

    How much do you have to love someone before you will die for them? There’s a philosophical principle which says that innate to our humanity is a sense of compassion for others, and that in the face of a crisis, the instinct that drives us to protect others becomes greater than that which drives us…

  • Lonely Roads

    Recently, life has seemed to consist of one really long, lonely road and I don’t like this turn of events at all.

  • Demonstrate Love

    This world does not need another protest- it needs a demonstration of love, and that is what I’m called to do.

  • This Road Home

    When I first started writing my blog, it was mostly for the purpose of providing a variety of perspectives on concepts that were being taught in Sunday School and Bible studies at the church where I was serving. Since I’m no longer serving in a ministry career, my blog has kind of transformed as life…

  • He Knows Me

    Do you ever have those days when you feel like with the right make-up you could totally be one of the zombies on The Walking Dead? You know, those days when your brain is obviously infected by something other than the intelligence virus? When you wonder when your “walking around” sense walked off and left…
