It was the next day after my husband left for a fishing trip to Minnesota with his brother and a buddy. Why is it that everything seems to break down when hubby goes somewhere? The night before, the waterspout on the refrigerator offered a preview of things to come when it suddenly developed three spouts …
I Can Explain how I went to church covered in mousse. Read More »
I tend to dread hearing about friends and family my own age that have passed on, but the reality of the next life should bring great joy. And I suppose it’s a subject a person of any age might contemplate. It makes no sense to say that when this life is over, we will remain …
I admit this is a strange subject to tackle, but it’s true. Every word of it. My sweet spouse of almost fifty years bought some shorts that tie in the front. If you ask me, I’d say they resemble swimming trunks. Well, he decided to wear them to play golf. I don’t get out on …

In John 8:31-47 Jesus is speaking to the Jews. He tells them that if they hold to His teachings, they are His disciples, and his disciples know the truth and have been set free. The Jews are indignant and respond by saying that they are Abraham’s descendents and have never been slaves of anyone. Jesus …
I can’t understand how people can claim God doesn’t exist. Psalm 19:1-2 says, “The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they display knowledge. How can people explain the origin of the stars, the moon, the sun, our …
My husband and I live in a neighborhood with wide lots. We might as well live in the country as our house backs up to a greenbelt. From my deck I can only see trees and more trees. I love to sit out in the morning, gaze at the countryside, and listen to the birds. …

I’d like to offer encouragement to anyone who feels they have passed the time in their lives when they can be of service to the Lord. Let me share my own story and remind you that God is no respecter of persons. He doesn’t play favorites. If it happened to me, it could happen to …
God has given my husband the gift of serving as the Bible talks about in 1Corithians 12. If you need something done, just ask him. One way he serves in our church is by participating in the ramp group. This group of men, mostly in their sixties, seventies, and eighties build ramps for those who’ve …

Happy Fourth of July, friends. It’s a joy to celebrate the birth of our nation and say Happy Birthday, United States of America. There is no better country in which to live. I’m so grateful and blessed by the men and women who’ve fought for this country so that we might live in freedom, especially …
As everyone knows, while we’re on this earth, no one escapes the negatives of life. Christians included. Too, the more years we live, the more time for the effects of unpleasant and stressful issues to accumulate and weigh us down. I used to think that when I got older, I could deal with problems more …

I can explain, but this isn’t in the form of a complaint, by any means, rather a form of a confession. My husband and I are grateful, happy members of Northbrook Baptist in Cullman, AL. Communion or the Lord’s supper as it is sometimes referred to, is a special and memorable time in our church. …
Father’s Day is just a few days away. No doubt you’ll honor your godly parent who’s always been there for you. Right? No? You might say, my father beat me, or my father left me when I was three. Then this post is for you! God’s ideal plan for families in raising their children is …
