This is something that is factual and informational that supports a concept of an idea. Sometimes the facts of the matter are very evident and available.

There are exclusive clubs that I can belong to that will keep certain people out of the club and certain people in the club. I was rejected from a forum for sign-making because I didn’t do the specific work that the forum represents in my everyday life. Exclusion is pretty much part of our culture.…
There have been instances in my life where my life changed in a big way. I’m thinking of job changes that look small in light of career change. All of those changes look small in light of divorce. Some life changes rock me from the bottom of my feet to the top of my head.…

I do enjoy this time of year when High School Football is in full swing. On the weekends, I can find a multitude of College Football games and then there are the Professional Football games as well on Sunday and Monday. I remember hearing a phrase many years ago and I think it was said…
I never witnessed first hand a miraculous healing of God. I’ve seen sick people get well. I’ve heard stories of cancer that was found and then it was gone. I think sometimes that my faith comes up short in this area. I believe that God can do anything He wants. I also believe that some…
I grew up in an older church rich in faith heritage. The church was located in Casey Creek, KY and named Roley Christian Church. I remember the attendance grew at one time during my teenage years up to about 70 in average attendance. My Dad was the song leader as well as an Elder in…
