Last night was a total lunar eclipse, and a blood moon all in one night. People flooded the news and social media with the overwhelming excitement of seeing these phenomena. Pictures were profusely posted on social media, as were assorted videos of footage where people took time just look at the moon. The question is, Read More
Shorts and flip-flops on Christmas Day? This has been a very strange Christmas in the South. It was 78 degrees on Christmas Day. I know it has been odd all over the country.

“I will be filled with joy because of You. I will sing praises to Your name, O Most High.” Psalm 9:2 This Christmas is different from any other in my life. This year, God gave me an amazing gift…forgiveness. If you’ve read much of my writing, you know that I had a less than desirable Read More
