  • I saw a video of Johnny Depp, and his T-shirt read, “Be Humble or Be Humbled”. I thought what a great title for a blog post; so, here it is, though I doubt some of you will like it because I have some not so positive things to say, unfortunately. For those of you that Read more

  • Crossroads

    I have been feeling off lately in my faith: for example, I woke up angry and depressed on Easter morning, when I should have been ecstatic in remembrance of what Jesus went through for us. I felt as if I did not know who I was; maybe it was stress or exhaustion from not sleeping Read more

  • Untitled

    My parents were not perfect, and I am guessing your parents were not perfect either. Perhaps you went through some kind of abuse or neglect from your mother or father or both of them. Well, I wish you would do yourself a big favor and forgive them. Parents do the best they can. Your grandparents Read more

    I remember the first bull I got on; it was on my brothers back in Grandma’s front yard. I bucked off and hit my head on the water-meter cover that resulted in a trip to the doctor, where I got five stitches and a proud moment; I was five years-old … Chapter 1- Freedom Buc Read more

  • Curasi Curiosity

    Obviously, I do not know all the answers, but I know who does. I do not know what the future holds, but I know who does. All I do know is I will die only to live in heaven, and the unknown escalates… I believe we could be in the end times, but I am Read more

  • A Dirt Bike Life

    When I was growing up, some of my best friends were dirt bikes(bicycles). My dirt bikes gave me freedom to roam around and explore; sometimes, I had to be a bit of a dare devil by jumping ramps and wrecking every now and then. It was so fun I rode almost every day until sundown. Read more

  • Scared

    It seems like forever since I have written anything; writers block is a real thing. All is well on my end, and I hope this blog finds you well on this beautiful day God has blessed us with. As most of you probably know, my wife Crystal is the Pastor at my church. This morning Read more

  • I Love Cats Three

    So, Crystal and I have adopted a cat, and her name is Sunny. Sunny is the third cat we have had in our fifteen years of marriage. When we adopted Sunny, her name was Sun; I am not sure why because she is black with tan mixed in. Sunny looks like she has eyebrows and Read more
