When It Happens…
Where do you go…what do you do when the crisis happens? All public buildings have a fire alarm system. They do two things: alert everyone in the building of the emergency and contact the local fire station of the fire emergency. The fire alarm activates the planned response. In school we had fire drills to …
“What’s Going To Happen?”
It’s incredible. We have a new and even worse crisis every week. Just when the current crisis begins to lose its fever pitch…BAM! Up pops even bigger crisis. No matter which 24-hour news network you watch remember this, they all have 1 thing in common, “making money” …and nothing sells like fear. Yep! Nothing glues …
“Am I Alone?”
Being alone…truly alone, can be frightening. If you have not been there, you will. Alone can be in a foreign place, an experience you have never had, or even in a crowd. Alone is not an external experience, it’s internal. Alone is the fertile ground that the seeds of fear can grow into uncontrolled anxiety. …

The Power of His Word

Prepare Before…

I use the word grueling because to survive the contact, the preparedness must be physical, mental, and emotional. It must push the limits. In a culture of fewer & fewer participants …

Can I Trust It?
I never thought too much about it before… grab bars are for old people. Welp, I am moving into that phase of life. When we travel, grab bars are one of the first things I look for. In the last 44 days Mary & I have been away from home 22 nights. Nothing causes me …
