There's an old gospel song written by Albert E. Brumley called “Turn Your Radio On” in 1939, and it's been sung by just about every gospel singer and group since, plus many country artists. There were several variations on the lyrics, here is a popular one: Come and listen in to a radio station Where … Continue reading Ringtone
SOTU
There was an iconic moment right after the State of the Union address last night: Speaker Nancy Pelosi ripping apart what was apparently a copy of the President's speech. It came across as an act of rebellion and disrespect, and IMHO little more than a childish tantrum. It's amazing that Speaker Pelosi is the third … Continue reading SOTU
God’s Will; Our Choice
An account was told to me about two men. Both men were diagnosed with cancer within about two weeks time. One man chose to do all he could to fight the disease. He went to different clinics for different treatments, sought all the medical help he could find, traveling to wherever he needed to receive … Continue reading God’s Will; Our Choice
First, Last
I have a small sign that says “There is no telling where you can go or what you can accomplish if you don't mind who gets the credit.” Many people, especially in the business world, would scoff at that. “How can you get ahead, get promoted, get a raise, if you are not given credit … Continue reading First, Last
Restoration
One of my daily devotions - the Worthy Brief -- said this: "....the real issues America faces [cannot be] remedied by politics. Political realities simply reflect the internal moral and cultural climate of a nation and its people. In their drive for power, most politicians are simply responding to or manipulating the current passions of … Continue reading Restoration

Joshua went up to him and asked, “Are you for us or for our enemies?” 14“Neither,” he replied, “but as commander of the army of the Lord … Continue reading Sandals
Timeline
The future. What is it? Why is it important? Just how important is it? What if plans for our future fall apart? How do your plans for the future affect what you do today? What are you willing to totally give up today for future plans? What is the single most important thing to your … Continue reading Timeline
Perfect Vision
2020. The end of a decade. Where did the last 9 years go? What do we see in the coming year, or the next 5 or 10 years? Impossible to predict. We can always speculate. Keeping up with politics leads to a lot of guessing, but in such a volatile political atmosphere it's much easier … Continue reading Perfect Vision
‘Tis the Season – for Giving
Since retiring I don't make as much money as I did. Most people don't, obviously. But during December (and sometimes in November) I have had the joy of being able to leave generous tips to the waitress or waiter at various restaurants. Recently I read about a waitress getting a $1,200 tip! Most of us … Continue reading ‘Tis the Season – for Giving
Christmas Memories
The following I received from one of my brothers: I imagine that most, if not all, of us have some very special Christmas memories. I want to share a few of mine with you. One of my earliest memories is of my bobsled. My father built it himself from 1” galvanized pipe, wood slats, paint, … Continue reading Christmas Memories
