This week we’ve been taking a trip down Memory Lane! Each day this week I’m posting one of five of my favorite stories ever published here. Some are taken from books I’ve published and others (like today’s) have only been published online thus far. These are some funny, some sad, some heart-warming moments from the…

Living In Perfect Harmony [Church Book Excerpt]
As I mentioned here last week, I published a book on the topic of the Church, titled, There’s The Steeple… Here’s The Church—I call it “The Church Book”. As I was recently revisiting this book, I came across a chapter or two that I wanted to share again. And so that is what I’m doing…
Messes
It’s funny… I’m really not OK with messes. But, I have kids. Several. (And they are all really good at making messes!) Sometimes—after I am able to calm myself down a bit—it makes me smile just to think what a sense of humor God has. He, being all-knowing, must know that I am fairly particular…

Friends of ours participated in the Pageant this year. They played various…

Several years ago I published a book containing much of the writing on the topic of the Church that I had published here up to that point. Those posts are still available in the archives, and many are still read on a weekly basis. Just the other day I was flipping through a copy of…
