LOOK AHEAD!
I’ve come to the end busy week in my world. It started with my final week of coaching almost 90 kids in the fine art of public speaking. It has been fun watching them develop their skills and to hear … Continue reading

COLUMBUS DAY
I remember the days leading up to Columbus Day when I was a child in elementary school. We’d draw pictures of the Nina, the Pinta and the Santa Maria. We were told stories of how people viewed the world as … Continue reading

Yesterday I kind of blew my stack when I discussed being offended. Sometimes it’s better to just not know all the ugly stuff going on in this world. Sometimes it’s better to be blissfully ignorant. Well – not really! God … Continue reading
I’M OFFENDED!
I am getting really sick of it! I’m tired of hearing that my country’s flag has become offensive to some. I’m overwhelmed that some are offended by my lack of understanding of sexual immorality. I’m disgusted that just about everything … Continue reading
