Life Without Christmas?

Dear friends, What would life be without Christmas? What would your life be like without Christmas? Some of you are probably thinking, “It would a whole lot less hectic Glen!” True, but then again: No Christmas vacation No family traditions or memories No nativity scenes No gifts No carols in the malls No churches No…

The Last ____________?

Dear friends, I can almost guarantee you that your children and grandchildren can fill in the blank! Ok, maybe you can too and perhaps some of you have your tickets for Friday?  People are standing in lines waiting to hand over their hard-earned cash! My body has never darkened the doors of a “Star Wars”…

Let’s be thankful disciples!

Dear friends, “Rejoice always; pray without ceasing; in everything give thanks; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus!” Thanksgiving isn’t a once-a-year celebration for anyone who calls themselves a disciple of the Lord Jesus.

Fire!

Dear Friends, By now most of us have heard of someone we know who has suffered loss due to the “raging fires!” Questions abound when tragedies like Houston, Florida, Puerto Rico, Mexico, Las Vegas and now Northern CA take place! Answers however are in short supply! The word “fire” is mentioned 519 times in my…

Another catastrophic and heart-breaking day!

Dear friends, Today is a tragic day in our nation as we all have heard by now the senseless murders in Vas Vegas!  Dreams have been crushed, hearts have been shattered and torrents of tears flow!  catastrophic. Today, questions abound afresh but answers are few and far between. What we can do is pray as,…
