It was a good night for this Buckeye in Okieland. 33 - 7 are my favorite numbers.

Marriage Matters…

As a married man, I admit that there have been times that I have taken my wife for granted. In my hurried days, I just seem to rush through my day, come home from work, pretend to be engaged in conversation but secretly wanting to return to work for solace, for quietness, to hide from [...]

The day that began at 2am

It really did. The phone rang very early this morning. A family needed my assistance, and I answered their call for help. Life can be messy at times, and the mess associated with sin definitely leaves a lot of yuck to be cleaned up. I am amazed that God has called a goof ball like [...]

Another Christmas…

Another Christmas came and went. Something magic happened this year. You see growing up, Christmas mornings were always a special time. Family gathered around the Christmas tree, mom and dad sipping coffee, and my brother and I wide-eyed and breathless and the bounty Santa left for us. This year, the presents for this big kid [...]

Over the weekend, we got to see her parents and Heather. They made thier trek across the country yet again, [...]

The Cross Hanging…

The cross hanging in my old church above the baptistry used to steal my attention during services. It wouldn’t be uncommon when at the church really late, to find me sitting a few pews back staring at the wooden work of art. I meditated often about the cross and the Savior’s torment on such a [...]
