I hesitate wading into this controversial subject but I see so many posts on Facebook calling for us to put prayer back in the schools and arguing that many of our problems are because prayer has been removed from the classroom. Wondering which side is right, I decided to go where I always go when […]
Confession time: I recently became angry at my husband for what I perceived as displaying insensitive and rude behavior to me. But then I was reminded by the Holy Spirit of my own actions earlier that week. They might have been perceived by him as being insensitive and rude behavior. Thinking on my actions vs. […]
After a record-setting week of cold temps – it is great to be above freezing once again – even into the 40’s. Last Sunday I came home from church and did not go out again until this past Saturday. My husband took me to Applebee’s for lunch. I have been to Applebees many times to […]
Recently our youngest granddaughter had a sleepover with us. We took her to a children’s museum. On the way home we started playing a game we had played with our children when they were little to pass the time on a road trip. My husband started by saying “I’m going on a picnic and I’m […]
Growing up I loved being a red-head. Not really confident in my looks, I felt my red hair made me special. There are not that many red-heads around. One of my sisters was a brunette and the other a dark blonde. When we met people I would be the one they would notice first because […]

In Christian circles we love to talk about fellowship. When we announce church events, we often try to encourage everyone to attend by talking about the opportunity we will have to “have fellowship with one another.” There is the weekly/monthly/annual fellowship meal. And, of course, when summer comes we often have the church picnic. Most […]

Most of us grew up seeing the Ten Commandments posted on walls of our schools, courthouses and churches. Many have claimed these principles are the basis for our Judeo-Christian society.
