So tell me, how often does God ask you to do something where you don’t feel even remotely qualified? When you look back over this past year, did you have any tough assignments? I sure hope so! Don’t give me that look. We both know …
You know those cute little mini-books that are by the check-out line at the Christian book store? One caught my eye because I was in the middle of making a 2018 calendar for you …
No doubt you have heard the old saying: everyone loves an underdog. Everyone? Really? Well, maybe sometimes. Like in movies. But in real life, most of us prefer …
Once a quarter, I look forward to the “What I Learned” series. I am fascinated with the premise not only because I like to learn (especially from the Bible – as you have probably figured out by now) but because it makes me sit back and take stock. So – you guessed it – I am joining in! And I hope you will learn something new from me today. Life-long learning here we come! Without further ado, and in no particular order, here are 7 “good” (and completely random) things I learned this fall …

I had to laugh when it finally dawned on me. “Of course,” I thought as I mentally bopped myself on my forehead in I-should-have-had-a-V-8-style! And then I couldn’t stop chuckling. Please tell me I’m not the only one who has private jokes with the Lord. Now I get it. Ever had a deadline looming and you really needed to hear from the Lord? …
When did Fall get to be so happy anyway? I don’t remember it always being so popular. Do you? Could it be that Starbucks started this whole cozy-autumn-pumpkin-spice craze? I don’t know. Maybe it’s been around all along and I just didn’t notice because …
