Lest We Forget — THANK YOU!

Through almost 223 years of America’s history, boys (and in more recent years girls also) have said goodbye to parents and with heads held high have marched off to serve their country. Many of those years have actually been years of peace and a great number of those brave soldiers have never been required [...]

The Unsung Hero

Often not knowing all the reasons why, she nods her head in submission as to the Lord when her husband shares the news that he believes the gospel is to be shared with a tribe who live on another planet in a distant galaxy who speaks “Klingon” and who wear nothing but toothless grimaces and [...]

This time of the year is controversial for a number of different reasons. There are some who believe that Christmas should not be celebrated by true believers because the origins of the actual holiday are rooted in ancient pagan festivals. It is not my intention to argue that point in this particular blogpost. I have [...]

Most schoolchildren could give a basic [...]

My Recent Absence!

Over the past 2-3 weeks, my posts have been greatly limited as have my comments.  A very small group of people are aware of what has happened in our lives, but we are thankful to the Lord for those who have offered words of encouragement.
The Christian life is NEVER easy, but then again, the Lord [...]

A Tale of Two Deaths – Conclusion

Both heart-breaking tales of death I have shared are true accounts of the lives of two very different individuals. The first account was the story of what happened with my own younger brother, while the second account came from visits I made in my ministry as a pastor.
In the true account of Lazarus and the [...]

A Tale of Two Deaths – Part 1

A long time ago, there was a time that death meant very little to me. Apart from being a word that very few were willing to discuss, it was something that had not really had any major impact in my life. Although an adult, death was impersonal for it had not really affected any of [...]
