God is fascinating. One thing I have learned through Bible study is God leaves His fingerprints wherever He goes… but you can’t see His fingerprints flying through life. We must “Search for it like hidden treasure. If you do this, you will understand what it means to respect the Lord, and you will come to …

Looking For Truth?
Truth…it’s getting harder to find. Never in mankind’s history have we had so much information. And now with AI, it is next to impossible to determine if what we see or read is true and real or something that has been manufactured. Not knowing creates uncertainty & anxiety.

Needs Or Wants
Saturday, we celebrated our family Thanksgiving with incredible food, laughter, family pictures, and conversations about Christmas. I was sitting beside our 8-year-old granddaughter as she searched Amazon on Meme’s phone for her Christmas wish list. Not much has changed in 70 years except when I was her age, we used the Sears catalog. We would …

“Question Bearing On Need”
This is one of the fundamental Principles taught in the Dale Carnegie Sales Course. It’s the question that gives the conversation focus. It’s the question that must be satisfied. What kind of questions are you chasing an answer for? I remember the lonely nights in college (1965-68), driving gravel roads thinking and talking to myself. …
The Bigger Picture…
Two weeks ago, vandals took advantage of me forgetting to lock the doors of my truck. The next morning when I opened my door this is what I found. All the glove boxes and consoles had been emptied and thrown onto the seat & floor…except one. If you notice in the top left corner of …
