Book Metaphors

I came across an entry in one of my notebooks, and it was good to be reminded that God is the Author of life, and He knows how to write and finish good stories. When life happens and things change, whether we like those things or not, we need to turn the page. And...

Looking Back Again

Round about a year ago, I was looking for a new job, a new place to live, and a new direction in my life. Now I have two jobs, a place to live, and enough direction to figure out where I should probably head from here. I'm probably going to sound like a broken record...

New Year, New Schedule

Once again, I find myself changing my blog schedule. I'll be posting my blogs on Tuesday, since my new schedule this year allows better writing time on that day. Speaking of new schedules, this past year has been full of changes for me. I went from one job to another,...

A Little Easter in Your Christmas

Many people have mixed feelings about Christmas. The commercialism has a tendency to suck the joy out of it. But remembering that it's about the first coming of Jesus makes it so joyous! But let's not forget the whole purpose for the first coming: to die for our sins...

Drama Lessons

I've been in a few church drama productions, and I've learned quite a few things from being in them. Today is the day after the most recent production, and it has spurred me to share what I've learned. Listen to the director. Don't talk, use your phone, or otherwise...

Choosing Praise

Praising God is not always something you will feel like doing. But it is a good thing to do. Really, God's very nature demands that you praise Him. I mean, He created you, gives you everything you have, and takes you through every breath you breathe. If you don't...

Fear, Worry, and Trust

I learned something in church yesterday. Well, I learn every time I go to church, but sometimes there's a particular thing that sticks out that I want to share. One learns a lot in church. You should go regularly. But let's get back to the point. A lot of us are...
