What Do I Do First?
This spring, I attended my grandson’s first T-ball game. What a riot! Turns out the order in which players do things is important. For these little tikes (4-5-year-olds), it was a lot to remember! First hit the ball. Then put … Continue reading

Little Faith
At a conference on faith, one of the main speakers, Lysa TerKeurst, defined life as, “Not what I expected.” In viewing events in the gospels, I’m sure the disciples would have agreed with that definition. It seemed Jesus was always … Continue reading
