It’s A Wonderful Life: Reflections

This Christmas night we continued the family tradition of watching “It’s a Wonderful Life.”   We’ve been doing this for 20 plus years and yes, I’ve been the instigator.

Hope For The Holidays

The purpose of this blog is to encourage wholehearted worship worldwide. To be authentic, we got to keep it real. For many, the holiday season means more stress than joy.

Steve Jobs and Making a Difference

Song: Unity

This weekend marks our 29th wedding anniversary! To commemorate, I’m posting a song I first wrote for my brother-in-laws wedding,  “Unity”. I’ve sung this at my parents 50th anniversary and other weddings too. This is just a demo recording, but it gets the idea across. It’s today’s free download. […]

BlogX Inspiration Week #1

Last week I started doing a 90 day blog shape-up program called BlogX through the ultra helpful Tentblogger . Everyday there are strenuous blogging assignments designed to build up “blogging muscles” under the guise of super sensei John Saddington. The biggest benefit of BlogX so far is I’ve been forced to “ship” faster and more [...]
