There I was, standing in my underwear when the Drill Instructor walked in, screaming “Atten-hut" and began inspecting the beds, foot lockers and ripping the place apart. This was my introduction to the one & only military way. What I thought…the way I liked it…no longer mattered! After screaming a string of insults, laced in …

Walking On Egg Shells
You’ve been there, it’s a comment, an opinion, and the next thing the veins are bulging in the neck, the scowl on the face and raised voices. Nothing sets people off today like a good-ole political opinion. And everybody’s got one. I have been a political animal most of my life. In fact, my youth …

In August 2014 I had the privilege of being in Israel with a group from our church. One of the places we stayed was in northern Galilee. At supper one night one of our group members said, “I’m going to spend the night up on the roof and watch the sun come up over the …
Where Are We…Where Are We Going?
Growing up we only had paper maps. One Christmas mom, dad & I, went to see my brother, Gene, who was stationed in San Antonio. Being the young lad, I sat in the back and watched & listened. According to dad, the streets in San Antonio were laid out wrong. They lacked common sense. Lost …

“What’s The Answer?”
There I sat…It was the semester test in 9th grade algebra with 10 minutes before the bell and my test paper was almost empty. I didn’t then, nor do I now understand why I need letters to solve a math problem. But here I was. I needed answers. By the time my buddy handed me …

“I’ve Got A Secret!”
The sooner a person learns, “Don’t ask why, just do as you’re told,” in basic training the better. I was the only one in our group told to report to this specific room. When the sergeant shut the door, it was all business. He told us to fill out the forms of everywhere we had …
Nematodes?
It was November 17, 2023, at 3:30 am when I suddenly woke up with a word on my mind. That word was NEMATODES. (God was planting the seed for this message a year later.) Chances are you have no idea what the word means. It’s been over 60 years since I heard the word, nematodes. …
