Star Wars and Mary Poppins?
(Email viewers click here for video.) I remember seeing Mary Poppins when it first hit the big screen. Greasy fingers found the bottom of a red-striped popcorn box with no help from my brain. My gaze never left the dancing chimneysweeps, the laughing man, nor the woman floating through the air clutching an umbrella. Live […]
Our Christmas Card to You
I planned to wish you a Merry Christmas today with our family’s Christmas video. However, as I put the final touches on the video, a text rang in from my sister-in-law. Her husband Dick had written a letter while traveling a mile high above the earth that she thought I might like to read. I […]
A Baby Changes Everything
Unplanned. Unexpected. Uncertain. “My son is here! Oh God, Mary seems so calm and content, but why me? Will I get it right? Will I give him what he needs? Do I have what it takes? After all, Lord, a baby changes everything.” Rough and rugged. Terrified. Dazed. Hands accustomed to saving lambs from predators caressed […]
Are You A Fixer Upper?
“We take the worst house in the best neighborhood and turn it into our clients’ dream home.” If you recognize these words you might be a fan of HGTV’s hit home improvement show “Fixer Upper”. Chip and Joanna Gaines do indeed turn nightmares into dreams. Chip readily admits his favorite day of the whole process […]
Give an Answer or Share A Reason?
I’ve said it before, but it bears repeating – I stink at math. Numbers boggle my mind, and just for the record, letters ought never be included in a number sentence! Hello?? That’s why they call it a number sentence! But, I digress. Even though the trauma of solving mathematical equations requiring higher-ordered thinking skills […]
I Saved the Best “Thanks” for Last
For the last four weeks I’ve attempted to introduce you to an appetizing assortment of friends who’ve already taken their seats at Heaven’s table. Tom’s life inspired us all to take advantage of every opportunity to share Jesus. Ed and Jean encouraged us to be intentional in our service to others. Carolyn left us a […]
Thanks, Mack

Thanks, Carolyn
Back during my days of white lace socks and patent leather shoes, my Sunday school teacher asked us to memorize Psalm 100. Back then the redwoods were mere saplings, and the King James Version was the only acceptable version of the Bible for good little church girls like me. To this day, I cannot read […]
Thanks, Ed and Jean
Thanksgiving is officially on the way! It’s finally November! We will soon arm ourselves with shopping carts in hopes of bagging the perfect turkey. Heads will bow, platters will pass, and tall tales will be repeated for the 25th time. But, before we undo the button on our jeans, I’ve got a few more drops […]
Thanks, Tom
Thanksgiving, my favorite holiday, lies just beneath October’s calendar page. Before we flip the page to November, I’ve decided to get a head start in introducing you to some people outside my family who have gone on to Glory, but whose influence continues to live on in the hearts of many. These are just a […]
