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 […]
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 […]

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 […]
Simplify!
Simplify is the word of the day. Do you hate clutter? Does it bother you or stress you out? Romans 12:8 says, “He who contributes, let him do it in simplicity.” “The ability to simplify means to eliminate the unnecessary so that the necessary may speak. –Hans Hoffman Four […]
Little Things
Recently I was sitting at Starbucks when two men happened to sit down next to each other, very close to where I was sitting. One, a white man, the other, a black man. One noticed that the other was reading the Bible. So one asked, “What book are you […]
I have Scars!
“Scar” is the word of the day. This word will make sense if you continue reading. How many of you have a scar? Do you hide it or do you show it off? A lot of people like to show their scars. It’s like a badge of honor. It shows that […]
