First Memories of Church
My parents were married at my mom’s childhood Church. It wasn’t very long though after I was born that we moved to Faith Community Church just south a couple of minutes. Faith was my first Church and it is tied with so many cherished memories. Our Church didn’t have a baptismal so at around 5…

Defining An American Woman
I can define a woman, unlike the newest U.S. Supreme Court Justice. Supposedly she is a woman, but cannot define herself. God created a woman with the capabilities to bear her husband’s children: to love, support him and keep him in check when necessary and to lovingly guide their family with him. There are several…

Leaving August
The month of August has been unscripted to say the least. It was the 2nd day of the month that I had my accident and from there whatever I had planned went out the door. Me in the ER, my Pork Burger at the State Fair and one of my Grandma Betty’s hundreds of albums.…

The Newest On the Gadsden Kid
This story has just been an awesome display of American rights being used. Brandon Morse gave this final title some flamboyancy. “The Gadsden Flag Kid Just Secured Total Victory” “In a very surprising turn of events, the members of the school board called an emergency meeting and affirmed their respect for the Constitution and the…

Update On The Gadsden Flag Story
New Headline: “The Gadsden Kid Is Undefeated, Has His School Running for the Hills.” Branden Morse is back with an update already for this story. This boy Jaiden lives in Colorado Springs and he knows a thing about Revolutionary War History as a 7th grader that’s soaking up American History. From my standpoint this is…

Words of Love
While singing and listening to the words of Shania’s fan favorites my mind went to one man. ‘It Only Hurts When I’m Breathing’, caught me as I was singing along. Never in my life have I deemed to understand these words. Being half a country away from him seems dire from time to time. Before…

The Music of Shania
Today has been like the day after. As I spoke with my cousins last night I said it’s been an emotional day taking stock of the Church from when we left 6 years ago to yesterday. I knew some people had left in different phases, but the reality of it was forceful. Waking up to…

Wow! What A Sunday!
The Lord truly… works… in mysterious ways. Today was a culmination of literally about 9 months of signs from God to wake me up. The amount of intricate working the Lord does in one’s heart and mind for His glory is incredible. Honestly… I am still digesting the events of my day. Yesterday was a…

August Letters
Funny how I get started on something and then something even bigger comes out of it. When I originally started this topic of American Letters, different ideas came to mind. I didn’t realize how many ways I could loosely use the term letter. It can mean a text, letter or card. On a bit of…

Inclusive
This morning a commercial for a playground used a form of this word. Does anyone else get tired of the overzealous use of this word? I believe most of us do provide such an inclusive environment, America isn’t called the modern day melting pot for no reason. In school it was the beauty of what…
