Well, the Christmas season is officially underway. I can assure you that I have NO plans to go out shopping today. I'm just built for stress like that. Anyway, since it is official, I thought I would search for a Christmas themed photo to feature. A while back, my brother put all of the digital … Continue reading Friday Photo Flashback

Friday Photo Flashback
I am a man of faith. I am not here to start a theological debate. I debated turning off the ability to comment on this post, but I didn't. If you are a person of faith, too, you may enjoy a little history lesson. Yesterday was Bring Your Bible Day. The idea is, that whether … Continue reading Friday Photo Flashback
This Simply Amazes Me
This came up in my Facebook memories this week and I thought it would be cool to share. In my Bible classes, the pastor/teacher always talks about how amazing the Bible is. The fact that it was preserved throughout history and we can hold it in our hands today and read those words in itself … Continue reading This Simply Amazes Me

So much death …
For 5 days, I have opened my blog with every intention of writing. I have stared at the blank page, not really knowing what to write. How do I begin to even tackle what has been on my mind? I mean, I didn't even tell my wife about it until just a couple days ago. … Continue reading So much death …
Never Miss A Chance … To Keep Your Mouth Shut!
I have never read The First Law series, which is a series of graphic novels by Joe Ambercrombie. However, I came across a quote from Jezal dan Luthar (a character from that trilogy) that sets the stage for this blog: "Just keep your mouth shut and smile. That's always good advice" A book that I have … Continue reading Never Miss A Chance … To Keep Your Mouth Shut!
