Charlie…Is Still Inspiring
My heart still cannot simply move on from Charlie Kirk’s assassination. His death hurts his family most obviously, but secondly it hurts this Country in the long run because he was such a unique figure in our Religious and Political landscape. Truly a one in a million persona who could weave from religion to politics…

Musing on Sunday Night
This morning in Sunday School I saw the words ‘vulnerable communities’ in our book and couldn’t help myself. Charlie was ministering to such a community. College students needed to be taught to be more able to question the Liberal professors trying to dictate their thoughts. And he did his way. However, when I tried discussing…

Overwhelmed
This morning I was awakened way too early for the morning after Grandma’s party. I had hoped to sleep in longer, Bryan wouldn’t have it though. He wanted to talk to me last night, but I was physically and emotionally exhausted. So I promised him this morning; our definition of morning was not the same.…

Sunday Musings
The last couple of Sundays have felt really good. Being in a pew at the evening service has helped my perspective this past week. Maybe a small part of that is getting to watch goodhearted humor like seeing kids on a Sunday night feel that being at church is natural. As natural as it was…

Writing Prompt:
Why do you blog? For me this goes back to my purpose. God gives everyone a purpose or many purposes in life. I have always been reminded by the parable Jesus tells of the Talents. It’s humbling when God shows you your abilities and that they matter. Possibly even to others. Music was the one…

Prayers In Action
Circle-back Psaki says prayer doesn’t work. I can’t say how many times I have heard on the news how evil her text about prayer is ineffective. Nevermind… that the kids who were in the church were in there to pray when that maniac began this horrific nightmare for the families of these kids and the…

Writing Prompt: What Motivates You?
The general answer to this is that God has a purpose for me. Everyone born and sadly those that are created and unborn in the womb have a purpose. Roe versus Wade wouldn’t have been reversed just a few short years ago if those unborn lives didn’t weigh heavily on the minds of mothers and…
