When I was growing up my mother always asked, “Have you got clean underwear on? Make sure they don’t have holes in them.” I have discovered this was a common question for moms with little boys growing up in the 50’s & 60’s. When I think about it, mother must have accepted a known fact, …

God School: Lab Sesson – “Don’t Over Think It”
Question, who do you think will have a better day, the 2 boys who recognize God’s fingerprints in their life or the scholar trying to prove God didn’t perform miracles? When I was in the first & second garde we lived in the country. It was about a ¼ mile walk down a dirt/gravel road. …

God School: Today’s Lab Session, “Discouragement”
Discouragement…we have all experienced the gut punch of life. I have learned it follows expectation. I hear, see, or think of something awesome, great & fun, and not long after “BOOM!” something happens to bust the ballon. Many times, the busted ballon of hope resulted from my poor choices. But sometimes it was just life. …

God School: God Is The God Of Small Things
What do you expect of God? A BSF buddy wrote this week about spending time with his buddies on a camp out. The question of “What do you expect of God?’ resonated long after the campfire went out. But what do you expect from God? Chances are we don’t think too much about it until …
God School: What Do You See?
In 2024 I had cataract surgery. Before surgery I thought I could see pretty well. The doctor asked me if I needed more light to drive and read? “Yes,” I replied, “because they don’t make the lights bright anymore.” In my mind I was doing simply fine, but I did the surgery anyway. It was …

Do you ever look back and mentally kick yourself? It was 60 years ago, my Spring semester at Arkansas A & M (now UAM) when I was sitting in Dr. Culpepper’s Botany class. I had chosen Ag-Business as my major. Little did I know how the events & choices over the next 60 years would …

God School: Connecting The Pieces
The longer I’m enrolled in God School the more I am amazed at Him. One of His amazing ways is how He orchestrates people, situations, and His Word to accomplish His Plan. Most of the time it is late in the game when I recognize His fingerprints that reveal He’s already been here. It was …
God School: A Song of Ascents
It was a time of high anxiety, uncertainty, persecution, and turmoil. That was what life was like when people and Jesus climbed these steps to the Temple Mount. I learned, when I went to Israel, and took this picture, the custom was to recite from Psalms the “songs of Ascents.” You can find these in …
What Will 2026 Be Like?
Some see storms, floods, destruction, and loss. And others see bright, warm, sunny days. What do you see? In reality, it will be some of both. But at the core, how we deal with both will be determined by what our heart tells us. Proverbs 23:7 says, “For as he thinks in his heart, so …
“If I Had More Time I Would…”
What would you do if you had more time? May I suggest studying God’s Word? Did you know a study of 40,000 people by the Center of Bible Engagement found that after reading the Bible four or more times each week “Loneliness dropped 30%, Anger issues dropped 32%, Bitterness in relationships dropped 40%, Alcohol consumption …
