Several years ago, God gave me the concept of “God School.” What followed was a process that has helped me understand life. God School is composed of The Bible, Classroom Lectures, Study and Life-Lab. I believe Followers of Christ are enrolled in God School when they are “Born Again” (John 3:3,7). 1. The “Textbook” is …

“Just ignore it…it’ll go away!”
It’s Sunday and Monday morning is coming. The alarm will go off, and you will hit the floor running. After the chaos of everyone getting dressed & off to school and work, you stop at the drive-thru to get your daily caffeine push with a “Blondie” brew. You come through the doors at work like …
Hands That…
Little boys find things to do. I was around 5 years old when we lived on the farm. Our house was about 50 to 75 yards from the shop. In between the house and the shop was a pasture where I played dodge the patties. On this morning dad and the men had been repairing …
“Az mir daf schlogen a hunt, canst funnen a schtekl.”
It is incredible how God works! Over 25 years ago, while on a late-night flight I had an incredible conversation with an elderly Jewish man. He was full of “people wisdom.” He gave me a piece of wisdom that has been carried with me until this day. He summed up his thoughts on dealing with …

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. Uncertain & anxious is exactly how I …
Stuck!
This is a familiar situation on a rice farm at harvest. The field is soft from standing in water most of the summer. Many fields have soft spots. As a young lad growing up on my dad’s rice farm, I stuck a few tractors. But never like this. Never! Dad didn’t find anything funny about …
The Power In The Name
Very soon the world will be singing Christmas Carols. Many of them will have Old Testament names for Jesus such as the ones found in Isaiah, “Wonderful, Counselor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, and The Prince of Peace.” But there is so much more behind this. Did you know that “the phrase "in the …
“REPRESENTATIVE! I Want To Speak To A REPRESENTATIVE!”
Just like the dude in the picture I have literally screamed into the phone, “REPRESENTATIVE!” only to hear, “would you like to speak to a representative?” This is usually followed by a series of choices, “Press 1 if you have this situation, Press 2 if you are experiencing this situation, press 3 if…and by the …

“I Think I’ll Stay Here In The Shallow End!”
Growing up I thought swimming was walking in the shallow end of the concrete pool. I did this so much that my toes were raw. I watched other people splashing, diving, and enjoying the water. But I was afraid to get out of my comfort zone...the shallow end. That changed the summer I took swimming …

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 …
