The Secret of Happiness
What in the world are we supposed to be doing with the time we have here and now?
Do you have peace about where you are… right now? Have you found your groove?
Do you hop and dash around looking for the next thing? Does you life revolve around this phrase: “if I could only do this… [...]
Vapor Trails
My wife and I had the opportunity yesterday evening to attend a wake for a close friend’s family member. I had never met the matronly grandmother, but certainly feel as if I got a sense of who she was through the legacy of her children and grandchildren.

Thanks Dad
As we observe Father’s Day this year, I’d like to tell you a little about my remarkable Dad.

Youthful Witness
They were busy working in the sweltering sun, with sweat on their brows and joy in their hearts.
I found myself greatly inspired this week by a group of teenagers at a summer mission camp.
I was sent to do a TV story about this particular camp. The story turned out fine, but the teens probably don’t [...]
Styrofoam is the Cause
We live in a society of “Throw it Away.” From the items of fast food, relationships and even marriage everything is thrown away.
I took my daughter to the emergency room and she needed stitches, they brought out a throw away kit to sew her up. The needle, scissors and hemostats went in the garbage when [...]
NOW! Listen.
I’m a pretty tolerant person and I don’t let much get under my skin. Like anyone else, though, I do have a few pet peeves that make my teeth grind. Number one on my list of things that raise my blood pressure is when I am in a conversation and someone else butts in and [...]
