When life gives you lemons, what do you do? Of course the old saying goes you make lemonade when life gives you lemons, but that is not always so easy. Lets face, how many of us really want to turn lemons into lemonade. I would venture to guess that most of us want to turn […]

Tithing
Why is tithing one of the most hated topics in church? Most people think that a church is only after your money. I am sure for some that may be true, but for most it is not. Church like every other organization needs money to survive and without a steady income, the church is likely […]
Respect
I am back to hearing and seeing that respect is earned, not given. If everyone has this attitude, then how does anyone earn respect? The answer is you cannot unless someone makes the first move and lets face it, in today’s world no one makes a first move because that is a sign of weakness. […]
Christmas
I know that I have said I hate this time of the year, but that is not 100% true. I love Christmas time as it is the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ. I just hate what it has become and what it brings out in people. Christmas used to start the Friday after […]
Family
There is nothing like being around family for Christmas. My son went to Upstate New York where there was like 3 feet of snow and it was pretty cold. While he made it home for Christmas, we were not actually sure he was. My wife and I decided that he got himself up there and […]

Just what God ordered
Tonight, my son was having problems with his car. I was a bit upset, but I realize that things can happen. My wife and I got everything ready and headed over around 9:45 PM or so. On the way, I stopped to get gas and noticed a young man talking to a woman. After their […]
God is not fair
People are under the impression that God is fair. Well I am here to tell you that just is not true. If he were fair, we would all die due to sin and spend eternity in Hell. However, God sent His son to die for our sins so that we have a chance at eternal […]
Violence and Guns
I wish violence did not exist, but it does. People think that if they do one little thing, then the violence will go away. However, that is just not true. As long as Satan is in charge and evil exists in this world, then violence will always exist. There is a big movement to ban […]
