Heartache of Joy!
I really just wanted to take this opportunity to thank all of you who prayed for Rachel.
Strangers In Search of Hope
The big day finally arrived. We met the kids going from our church and got them all loaded. We then headed for the other side of town and picked up the other four. Looks of uncertainty on their faces were quite obvious. The trip’s 1st day was mostly uneventful until we started seeing mountains. The [...]
Greater Love Hath No Man…
John 15:13 NIV says: Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.

What are you a slave to?
Why don’ t we all take some long hard looks at our lives and see what we are slaves to?
Trumanisms going in new direction!
I still love MMA but it has dropped way down in my priority list. I am a firm believer in “Practicing what you’re preaching”.
I have been at Christian camps the last two weeks. Last week I was talking to a group of 10 high school kids. We were discussing things we are slaves to. As [...]
