• A New Chapter

Then the night before my family got the news we were waiting for. As I said in Sunday School it was a double whammy. Tears and memories of this…

• Saluting A Hero

  As I drove north up 41 into Terre Haute, during the first three stoplights, I began to notice the flags. Sometimes on a good windy day they are wonderful spreading their message far and wide. The message yesterday was that a former Sheriff of Terre Haute was being laid to rest. It was in his…

• A Prayer for the Common Sense American

  Heavenly Father, Abba, You have given me and everyone who was born an American a gift and blessing. We have been greatly blessed in this nation to have the Patriots and their blood soak our shores with their most pious prayers. We would not have what we have had in this country if not for…

• Creatively Blocked?

  Do you ever feel creatively blocked, musically, artistically in whatever medium you work in? Sometimes it’s ironic how I can feel the piano keys better than I can writing during the same day. Or I can write up a storm, but I just don’t have the want to hold a needle that day. I find…

• Devotional Day # 19 Closer to Christmas Each Day

  Today the topics are the Shepherds and the Angels. I was just as amazed that Israelites in the year Christ was born had really very few sheep.
