One of the best things my parents did for me as a child was making sure I enrolled in the Bible Memory Association (BMA) program at our Church. I found it very helpful to write out the verse I was to memorize. Oftentimes I just kept writing it until I had it down. I also … Continue reading Proverbs 7

Proverbs 6
Attending the National Radio Broadcasters Convention in Nashville in 2003 was an unbelievable honor. We will always be grateful to the church member that gave us free tickets to attend. Meeting Christian writers, pastors, speakers, and musicians was a huge privilege. But more than the endearing reception that a certain pastor/teacher/author demonstrated as he signed … Continue reading Proverbs 6

But thankfully, I turned to … Continue reading Proverbs 2

And yet, she could share with you some awful life experiences that make you wonder how she could possibly be … Continue reading B-E-A-M

OH SAY, CAN YOU SEE?
Looking around it sure boggles the mind how someone can be so blind. How can people abuse children? How can they be so cold and indifferent to a human life? How can they not see? In the old city of Jerusalem, Jesus and his disciples encountered a man born blind. Except for one other miracle, … Continue reading OH SAY, CAN YOU SEE?
