Restoration is the word of the day. My two brothers and I were red blooded American boys. We loved to play football and beat up on each other. Many times things would get broken. I once put my foot through the wall in the bedroom, leaving a big hole, […]
Statute of Limitations
This word of the day is, “statute of limitations.” There are some things that you just need to leave in the past. Many years ago, all four of our kids were sitting around the kitchen table, telling funny stories on themselves. They were approximately 23, 21, 17 and 12 years […]
Don’t Assume!
I’ve made many innocent blunders in my life. The one I’m going to tell you about ranks up there with the best, or maybe I should say, the worst of them. Starla and I had gone to the hospital to visit a family whose newborn was having a heart procedure. […]
Consistency is the Key!
Consistency is the word of the day. Too many people quit, give up, and throw in the towel before they even give themselves a chance to succeed. This is true in life, marriage, business, work and school. Consistency is the key to success. I remember when my son Kolt was […]
A Father’s Heart!
One of the greatest joys I have ever experienced is that of being a father. I’ll never forget the feeling when my first-born son came into this world. (Happy Birthday bro) I thought I would never be able to love another child in the same way. But when my […]

To obey or not obey!
The word of the day is obedience. God is the author and creator of life. God has planned and fashioned your life for success. Ultimately, I believe any success that I have in life is due to following the direction of my creator. Deuteronomy 28:1 “If you fully obey the Lord […]
Serve
The word of the day is serve. I want to challenge you to serve someone today. Speak this word over your life and your marriage and relationships. Too often, we spend our energy and effort working to get ahead only for our own objectives. But what about others? What about […]
Let it Go!
Let it Go. This is the word of the day. Simply, let it go. I remember reading this illustration and could recall a few times when it happened with my own kids. Imagine, a two to three year old little boy in a Play Place/Playscape (like McDonald’s) where the bottom pit is […]
But I don’t want to change!
Change is the word of the day. Be prepared to speak this word over your life if you want progress. Because all progress requires change. We are living in a very fast changing world. Technology is rapidly changing every single day. By the time I get accustomed to my […]
