I remember back in the 1980’s I have seen Carman in concert several times.  I always liked the way he would tell a story in a way that would get people excited.  I have heard many people preach to me that his type of preaching does not produce a lasting conversion.  I believe you could [...]

This week has been quite active with my sister being in the hospital and now released.  She has had quite a traumatic summer and it is great to see things start to work our for her.  For those of you that know what this is about, thanks for the prayers.  This weekend was the big [...]

  I have always liked University of Oklahoma quarterback Sam Bradford but after watching this video, I have an even greater respect for him.

I often hear people complaining about politicians that are in Washington and how they should be replaced.  I have been guilty of that many times but recently I have been seeing some things that that should have been obvious to me but I have had my head in the sand.  The problems are not politicians [...]
