One of the more pleasant things a pastor’s wife will experience is when her husband is honored for all the hard work he does. She is the only one who truly knows what he goes through, the hours he puts in and the sacrifices he makes. This Sunday I had the privilege of seeing that [...]

Finally after more than a year our house is sold. Yesterday we signed on the dotted line and that burden has officially been lifted. Unfortunately, we did not make any money on the house. Since this is a buyers market you have to sell for what you can get unless you can afford to wait it [...]

Over the last few years since we have been in the ministry I have had people come to me with various problems they we facing in their lives. Most of the time the solution to their problem was prayer. When I would suggest this to them they would always tell me that they had prayed [...]

2Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.
3Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sing praises unto him with the timbrel and harp.
4For the [...]

As I sat at my computer today, I looked out the window and saw this picture. The leaves are already changing on some of the trees in this area. This is certainly a place where you learn to have a true appreciation for the fall season. And the folks around here really do it up [...]
