Well, maybe exactly a day over 44. Yesterday was my 45th. Promise gave me a new backyard propane barbecue, then a surprise birthday barbecue at one of our member’s houses. Well, Karen lined all that up. What a wife! And I got about a hundred Happy Birthday’s online. Fun, huh?

That almost sounds like a dumb question, huh? Does having kids change anything? Duh!! Another mouth to feed. Diapers. Sleepless nights. Fevers. Bumps and bruises and scratches and you name its….

In life I have to work like it’s up to me, and pray like it’s up to God. Both are true in ANY area of life, huh? As a pastor I have the responsibility of leading a flock. It doesn’t matter if it’s 40 or 40,000, the rules are still the same. Namely: No matter how . . . → Read More: Work, Pray, Work, Pray, Listen, Obey, Listen, Obey

The bible says we shouldn’t have to put an oath to seal our words, but just let yes and no mean yes and no. Do you mean it when you tell somebody something? I try to be that way. Of course everybody fails, like a dad who promises his kids to go to the movies, but . . . → Read More: My Word Is My Bond

Recently I heard a mom tell another kid’s dad that his son didn’t need to press very hard at baseball practice. “It’s the off-season,” she said. “You can push him during the Spring season. It’s not like practicing NOW is going to make a difference THEN.”

Did you know that “Spiced Ham” is the full name of what we call “SPAM?” Yep. The name of that delightful meaninacan is short for Spiced Ham. I don’t remember ever trying it straight from the can, but I do remember having it heated up with eggs once years ago.

When I go to the movies, it’s usually one of three reasons.
First, to see it with or for somebody else. Previewing movies to make sure they’re okay for my kids has been a practice all their movie-going lives. Previews don’t say whether or not a “family” movie is going to be bawdy, and seriously: do you . . . → Read More: Let’s Go To The Movies

I’m old enough to remember McDonalds when they would change the number on their sign every once in a whilee from Millions and Millions served to 250 Million served to 300 Million served to 750 Million served to the day I noticed they said 1 Billion served!

That’s what the colonel told Elvis, right? “Just let it all go…” Well, a year ago I bought a 21′ Victory Sloop. I called it a sailboat when I picked it up, but the owner corrected me, informing me that it was a sailing yacht. Hoo hoooo! I’m a yacht owner! But there were a few problems.
