Two questions!
A number of years ago, Joanne and I were selected to lead the Evangelism Explosion ministry within Highland Park Presbyterian Church. We all studied the material in depth which was developed by Dr. James Kennedy at Coral Gables Presbyterian Church. Our teams would go...
Be purposeful!
When you hear the word purposeful, what comes to mind? Not just ‘with purpose’, go deeper. Our astute dictionarians (my word) would tell us it is: ‘having or showing determination or resolve; intentional, full of determination, meaningful’. I love these: ‘bent on,...
In Christ, I am…
“Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints who are in Ephesus, and faithful in Christ Jesus: grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with...
Endurance and perseverance
Endurance and perseverance…go hand in hand, in every day of our earthly journey. Endurance is experiencing or surviving pain or hardship. Perseverance refers to continuing in spite of difficulty and lack of success. Neither word provides a tone of...

Babies!
BABIES…are special to everyone. And, of course, the cutest one ever is yours! We just welcomed Lily Jane D’Spain into our family. Fourth great grandchild. The soft skin, the innocence and the total dependency make them a joy to hold, and behold. The thing I liked most...
Lean into the wind!
Our church is studying the 22 passages within Psalm 119. They are the letters of the Hebrew alphabet. And in Hebrew, each line starts with the same letter. Try that in English. One of the examples used a few weeks ago was concerning the Ecosphere. This was an...
What on earth is going on?
The very first words in the Bible are: “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth” (Gen. 1.1). The scriptures that follow outline in detail that he took six days to make everything, including mankind. Everyone on board so far? You can’t help...
