The NFL draft is finally over, but it won’t be until after the Super Bowl next year that people will quit talking about it. Then they will be too busy talking about next year’s draft. While I like football, all the football talk gets real tiresome for me. Perhaps it’s because my [...]
What a great day to be a sports fan. I was invited to give the invocation at a local golf tournament today and the weather couldn’t have been better. I really wish that I had signed up to play. It wouldn’t matter how good or bad (more likely) my round turned out, [...]
I’ll have a Venti Carmel Frap
Ok, I admit it, I love coffee. In fact I would go as far as saying that I am addicted to it. Not much beats good, hot, strong coffee; except perhaps good, frozen, strong coffee. Seriously, I will drink coffee just about anywhere and at any time. I don’t necessarily [...]
Along with our need for recognizing spiritual gifts, and the accountability we share with one another in using them; we also have a great need for support. Perhaps one reason our men’s groups are struggling is because we don’t often realize that we can’t do everything ourselves. Just as we need the support of our [...]

My grandparents were active in many civil activities [...]
One of the most surprising things that happened during our Men’s Group retreat was the discovery of so many spiritual gifts. We found out that just within our small group we have people who enjoy visiting the sick, feeding the poor, sheltering the homeless, and mentoring younger men. We have never discussed these things as [...]
Well the retreat is now over and I must say that it was a very good time away. Our first retreat was spent in Bible study, discussion on issues surrounding today’s men, and plenty of prayer and devotion. Like many men’s organizations, it is time for us to refocus and redefine our reason for being. [...]
Tonight was my daughter K.’s 4th and 5th grade Spring performance. They did a play called “1000 Cranes of Peace.” It is a true life story about a little girl named Sodoku who lived in Hiroshima, Japan, and was only two years old when the atom bomb was dropped. Ten years later she was diagnosed [...]
