Adam threw Eve under the bus and, as far as we know, up to a few moments before he denied responsibility for his woman – his love and hisContinue reading "Who will speak for this woman?"
Sermon: THE DANGER OF A GOOD SERMON
GET UP AND GO! Celebrate the sacrifice as if we’re expecting to go someplace. Every now and again we have to address life as if tomorrow is not good enough. Next week is not good enough. God is doing something wonderful TODAY!
An Open Letter to Ann Coulter by John Franklin Stephens
This is a very tasteful and thoughtful confrontation. It brings to the forefront our looseness with words and how one person's thoughtlessness becomes a dagger to someone else. Many thanks, John Franklin Stephens for writing and sharing your Open Letter to Ann Coulter.

If you're not already up, keep pushing until you're upright. Today's lesson: Sometimes it doesn't get better until you make it better.
Sometimes people are just jerks.
Recent jerk attacks on my good will: A couple of weeks ago, I posted on FB that I was going to attempt to ride 55 miles on my bike in an event. I asked for words of encouragement and prayers.
