The remarkable thing about soil is that it does not care what is planted. It will give as much effort to grow weeds as rice, soybeans, or corn. Dad’s seed supplier provided him with the ancestry of the seed and the confidence that the seed was not contaminated with weed seed. A bad batch of …

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: You Got To “Beat ’em” To “Clean ’em”
Friday was one of my favorite days in grade school. Usually, around 3 o’clock our teacher would announce who had eraser duty. Oh, what a privilege to be picked. A classmate & I would take the box of erasers outside to bang the erasers on the screen device removing the chalk from the erasers. I …

When It Happens…
Where do you go…what do you do when the crisis happens? All public buildings have a fire alarm system.

“He’s On My Trail and I’m Exhausted…”
Growing up and hunting in Arkansas there are a couple of good reasons I never encountered a wolf; I was not Davy Crocket because I make too much noise, and I am not a good sign reader. Also, wolves are not common in Arkansas. Wolves are fascinating animals. Unlike us they do not have Wal-Mart(s) …
“But even if…”
How are you under pressure? I don’t mean the self-inflicted pressure associated with busy. No, it’s the kind of pressure that comes as a threat to you or your family. It can be the loss of a relationship, a job, your good standing or even your life. I have found that these situations arise over …
