Today, 30Mar2018, is Good Friday for me. By the time this posts and the location of the server, it will more than likely be Saturday. On Good Friday, Jesus Christ was crucified after an illegal trial. Did Christ have to die? The answer is yes and no. If Christ does not die, then I am […]

Be yourself
I know there is a saying that you need to be yourself, but that is wrong. Our self relies upon the flesh and the world which we already know leads to death. Instead of being our selves, we need to be more like Christ. Being like Christ is not easy and in fact, I will […]
The Greatest Gift
A few days ago we celebrated Christmas, the birth of Jesus Christ. While He more than likely was born in late winter/early spring, this time of the year was chosen to represent His birth. Jesus coming to Earth was the greatest gift that mankind could ever experience. He was vulnerable when He was younger, He […]
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 […]
Grumpy
I’ve noticed recently that older people just seem grumpy. This really is nothing new as I also noticed this back in the 70’s, 80’s, 90’s, and even 2000’s. However, it just seems to have gotten worse with time. Do I blame these people, no. For the most part, it seems like everyone that is not […]

Sinful Nature
Since the time of Adam, man has been born sinful. You may think that is unfair, but once Adam and Eve decided to eat the fruit from the tree of knowledge of good and evil, all humans were tainted. In other words, the actions of two people have dictated the future of all mankind. Thankfully, […]
Health
I was watching a show on Netflix called “What the Health”. I thought it was going to be good and it actually started off being so until you could obviously tell that it was a group or groups that did not want us to eat the meat from animals or use animal products. I noticed […]
Hard Headed Children
Why is that our children do not want to learn from our mistakes. If my parents had ever said to me, do not do this, I would have asked why. Now I cannot guarantee that I would have done as they requested, but I do not know. However, I would have at least knew what […]
Happy New Year!
Well it is 2017. Are you ready? What did you all do last night? Normally, we go to our church and serve the local law enforcement dinner. This time, we( wife, son, and myself) just stayed in and enjoyed talking to each other as we waited for midnight to come to welcome the new year. […]
