Panic settled upon me after hearing how driven the state of Kansas has become in its effort to lure, entice, kidnap the KC Chiefs across state lines. Wouldn’t that be a federal offense?

During the past few months, I have had the honor of officiating at two funerals, and yesterday I attended a third funeral. There is one resounding principle that keeps ringing in my ears: the greatest gift ever is love. Yesterday’s funeral was for a member of my church family of 28 years. I came to this community to

Enough is enough! When did it become acceptable for corporations to allow their product to leave the plant below the standards the consumers have come to expect? Enough is enough.

given on Sunday, February 27, 2011 Conundrum This week has put me into a conundrum. For three weeks I have used the Life Application Study Bible’s blueprint for Philippians to provide a structure for the sermons. I really thought that was a safe way to dive into a new study since I have never

given on Sunday, February 20, 2011 Several times this week I found myself awestruck. Last Sunday morning it was seeing the eagle perched in the tree on Hwy M. On below freezing mornings it was the weather forecast predicting 70 degrees. Thursday morning I watched the snow piles along the curb dissolve in a little

How come major national news often begins with the latest Hollywood hype? Enough is enough. Certainly the Hollywood stars are public figures. But when
