What would like from the day? Careful now, your answer may define you. Wealth? Health? New job? Relationship? Reconciliation? Healing? Vacation? Time off? Relief? There would be as many answers as the people we know. God wants us to have a good life, as defined by Him. Honest. True. Holy. Loving. Forgiving. Caring. Helping. Serving. […]
Perhaps this is primarily an American question about the future in times of unpredictable uncertainty. Where are we headed? Bold words do not calm a bold world. Silence in turmoil is not a recipe for peace. Perhaps other nations affected by this are wondering in the same way. God only knows what to make of […]
Some theologians are suggesting that the end of the world is near. I do believe that we are a day closer to the return of Jesus. He said pretty clearly that we will not know the exact day of His return, but that we will see the signs. So I’m not with these folks who […]

Ever since I can remember, I’ve been a solution oriented person. As situations present themselves, I find it more effective to approach the solution to a problem than to find fault, assess blame and commiserate.
