Re: Prayer Requests & Personal Testimonies

I'm sorry Jim.

We lost an infant son almost 3 years ago, so we have some idea what you're facing. May God be near you and your family.

Re: Please tell me why?

This is more closely associated with the "no dually pickups because it looks like women's anatomy, and uncovered elbows look like another part, and we should avoid all of it, etc. line of thinking than it's not. Wait...what? For real? That's a totally new one for me. Are you serious? Is that r...

Re: Child injury or death, parent charged?

I appreciate the thoughtful response, Mike. I largely agree with you. And yes, this topic pushes my buttons, largely because of the experiences of people close to me. I have been in many discussions over the years with friends and with my wife about whether we can say that God causes things like th...

Re: In an attempt to brighten things up....

Yes, I do have a traditional side to me. In the not too distant past, some famous county music singer did a remake of this song. Cannot think of her name at the moment.

Re: The adventures in Daphna Dale.....

A full month of shaking shanties again! My skills haven't faded, though this companies trailers don't have quite all the options I was used to. I have found (and was shown) a few ways to overcome the lack of the options. Last night we hosted our youth group for the first time. It was nice seeing the...

Re: Guess Who I Met

I didn't get to shake his hand, but Dan Z gave a talk at our BMA convention this afternoon. I did make sure to shake his hand this morning after he preached for us. Glad to finally meet in person! I thoroughly enjoyed the event! I’m glad we connected as well – although you didn’t tell me you were s...
