I’m fairly certain that everyone reading this devotional agrees that stealing is a sin. We would never walk into a store and shoplift. We wouldn’t sneak onto our neighbor’s property and walk away with their tools. We wouldn’t drive off after pumping our car full of gas. We wouldn’t rob a bank or jewelry store. … Read More »
First Responders
Across our nation, an estimated 4.6 million individuals serve a population of 337 million. That means 1.4% serve 98.6%. We know these heroes as our First Responders.

Preach It Anyway!
Our world changed on 9/11/01 and nothing has been the same since. We should have expected it, but I don’t think we realized just how far reaching those changes would be.

If We Only Knew
I am not a fan of The Wizard of Oz and have some convictions against it for a variety of reasons. However, we cannot deny its monumental place in pop culture. Rotten Tomatoes ranks it 46th out of 300 greatest movies of all time in spite of a 98% rating. Ranker ranks it 22nd while… Read More »

Worship That Smells
Did your worship stink yesterday or did it have a pleasant aroma? Think about that for a moment as we consider a product that many of us have in our homes. Febreze. The Febreze commercials have been interesting through the years. Do you remember the commercial where an overflowing trash can with rotting items had… Read More »
Bad Credit
The third Thursday of October has been designated as Get Smart About Credit Day. It would have been this past Thursday, but I had other things to write about. From national statistics, it’s evident that Americans are anything but smart concerning credit card debt. “Collectively, Americans owe $1.14 trillion on their credit cards, the Federal Reserve… Read More »
