I do not know about you, but to me, it seems like 2023 is flying by. It seems like a month or so ago that we were having Thanksgiving dinner and Christmas get-togethers. The first hay cutting is past; local produce stores are offering strawberries and other spring/early summer items. Those of us living in … Continue reading Time Flies

You Are Priceless
In the early 1990s, a local church with a school suddenly lost its Pastor. The church asked me if I would teach the Pastor's Bible study class for the remainder of the school year.

A Watered-Down Faith
My opinions of church may seem contradictory to many readers. On the one hand, I believe every Christian should attend church whenever humanly possible. That includes Sunday morning services and Sunday evening and mid-week services as well.

In our area, some of the high schools have not yet held graduation. Others had online ceremonies. Still, others only allowed immediate family in the … Continue reading To The Graduates Of 2020
Church VS A High School Pep Rally

We were a large school, playing the best schools in the state of Ohio. In my junior year, we went to the final four, … Continue reading Church VS A High School Pep Rally
We Matured Faster, But They Grow Up Quicker.
When people my age (I am 60) look at the differences between now and "back in the day," technology tops the list. Today everyone is walking around with a phone in their pocket. When I was a kid, we knew of one person, a doctor, who had a phone in his car. I remember getting … Continue reading We Matured Faster, But They Grow Up Quicker.
