Today I am taking a few students to the mercy seat of the federal government, The U.S. 6th District Federal Courts. There isn’t much agenda to it other than seeing the courts in action. It should be interesting… I’ve been working on all my court lines like, “I object…. no, I object to your [...]
Nothing SpecialAs I was teaching last night [just hours ago] at Light Force, I was thinking in the back of my mind about this. (For those who wondered… Sometimes the mind wonders even in highly public communication time!)
I am such an “unspecial” communicator of the Word! I’m not really dynamic. I’m not real flashy. I [...]

The youth group continues to roll on in a positive and loving environment. One of the things I am really proud of is that we continue to be content driven and not hype driven.
The vibe of the group has really been amplified in the last 6-8 weeks. Since we’ve been concentrating on making everyone feel [...]
It’s been a long time since I updated about the fund raising efforts. As of last Sunday we have raised about 92% of our $16,000 goal.
Up until recently, this has all come in small portions. There have literally been hundreds of people making small sacrifices to reach this one large number.
I know this isn’t a [...]
The Story
A few years ago there was a star running back coming out of college. He had done the right thing, avoiding an early entry into the NFL draft after his junior year, he finished his senior year and graduated from a well known University.
