You may believe what the talking heads on TV say, but I don’t. They can’t even get the weather right most of the time, so why would we think they can get human idiosyncrasies right? I know why they can’t (or don’t) get things right. It boils down to a principal thing, a 6 letter word… Wisdom! It’s the principal thing. It’s the main … The rest of the story…
Ken had a very nagging feeling that just wouldn’t leave him alone. Right after he had his coffee each morning he’d start to stress about his ideas.

The answer to all three of those … The rest of the story…
I started writing lullaby songs for kids back in 2008, and they became a crowd favorite. So I wrote a whole collection of ’em in mostly a smooth jazz kind of feel. And I called it “Lullabye Bye”. The first song was one of those nice moments when a song just pops out. The title “In Your Dreams” has been used so much to … The rest of the story…
Cue the wackadoo snake charmer music. Because the power of three just cast another spell over me. Right here in the third month of the year. So, maybe 3 IS a charm. After all, the power of 3 is found in the main building blocks of life. Here are some factoids I shared a few years ago. And of course they’re still true: Atoms … The rest of the story…
By the Grace of God I’ve enjoyed a life filled with music, singing, and songwriting. I’ve been all over the country because of my ability to carry a tune. And I say by the Grace of God because I’ve been a miserable failure in so many other ways…so many times. God never saw fit to take my gifts away. For some reason He still … The rest of the story…
The ruler of this world is destroying it a little more each day. So, I hope you’ve given your heart to Jesus. And… I hope you’ve trusted He died and rose from the dead for your sins. I hope your hope is in the one true, living, loving Creator of the universe. Plus, I hope you’re willing to lean on God’s understanding rather than … The rest of the story…
