I usually can't resist taking quizzes like this, and then I bemoan life when they throw in a trick question and I fall for it.) But … Continue reading How Well Do You Know America?
Where do believers fit in to “Pride Month”?
Rainbow heart streamers and a "love is love" banner accosted us as we walked in. Flags and decorations screamed "pride month" wickedness. The blatant display of wickedness being flaunted was despicable. I was instantly overwhelmed with sorrow that our rainbow, the beautiful symbol that God created as a promise to us, had been hijacked by … Continue reading Where do believers fit in to “Pride Month”?

Over the side of the boat, where the rope ladder swings, … Continue reading D-Day: What Would You Do?
An Old Fashioned Spring
Spring is one of my favorite seasons. Everything is coming alive and new. It reminds me of the new life we have in Christ when we are born again. He removes the practices and lifestyle of the old man, and replaces them with the beauty of new life in Him. "Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are … Continue reading An Old Fashioned Spring

The Last Call//Forever We’ll Remember
"The Last Call", more commonly recognized by the name "Taps", is perhaps the most heartbreaking piece of music ever composed. It is comprised of only twenty-four notes, yet it stirs deep within us every ember of patriotism, grief, and humility that can be found. Those of you who have been to an American military funeral, … Continue reading The Last Call//Forever We’ll Remember
