Do You Like to Laugh?
But no matter how bad my jokes are, I still like to laugh and I’m very convinced that it’s good to laugh!
I’ve been thinking about this from what I’ve been reading in the Bible lately where God tells Abraham that he’s going to be a dad at a really old age in his life…
Managing Expectations
What do you expect from God? Do you think that if you obey God’s directives in your life that you will live a struggle free life? There are a lot of times when we read the Bible, we pray, extend our faith, trust God and hope that our efforts and obedience to God will facilitate a life of greater ease and less struggle…
Snips and Quips for Practical Living
Over the course of some recent months, I’ve had the opportunity to enjoy reading and discussing the book of Proverbs.

The Basics
I also know that we can feel and be under tremendous stress in our daily living and we need divine help to keep the proverbial, “wheels on the bus.”
What could such divine help look like?…
Why Do You Read Your Bible?
Over the course of my life, I've read the Bible for loads of different reasons. In my childhood, growing up as a pastor's kid, I was often told that I should read my Bible. Consequently, I read the Bible for many years because I should, and that motivation worked for a little bit…
Unmet Expectations
I’m bringing this to your attention because there’s a family in the Gospels who were disappointed with Jesus and the painful reality that He didn’t meet their expectations. I’m referring to John 11…
