Father Hear Our Prayer

It’s erie this morning. For the first time in days, we have a pause in the rain and actually see some sunshine peek through the clouds. It’s very quiet, truly the calm before the storm. Milton is an angry boy headed for the Florida West Coast. As I’ve been helping with our disaster recovery group activities, sharing…

It’s Worth Repeating

There are just some things that ya, every now and then, they are worth repeating. For instance, I don’t think we can ever say too much, God loves us. A reminder to ourselves every day that we can do all things through Him who strengthens us, is definitely worth repeating. You get the idea, there…

Many Hands

Yesterday we made our way through the big task of securing our church and campus for the upcoming storm. As you can probably guess, there are many moving parts, and takes time to accomplish. The forecast for Milton requires that we do a full battening down of the hatches so to speak. As we put…

Well, we’re prepping again for another storm here in Florida. This one is different, and actually quite rare in that it’s not coming up through the Yucatan as they normally do.

The Train

The newest phone scans your face to let you access it. An ai types your messages as you speak. With the touch of a button, you’ve ordered, paid, and had your dinner delivered to your front door. You don’t carry cash because with just a touch of your phone on the pad at the restaurant…

Where It Started

If you’ve been following this little blog for awhile you know that it was originally supposed to be a little book, not a little blog. Well, I have all of the chicken scratches, loose papers, post-it notes, etc. still in a binder in my office. This morning as I was struggling with what to say…

Dawn of a New Day

It is indeed the dawn of a new day. Yesterday was another day filled with emotion as we come together to help those in need in the states affected by Helene. What was so wonderful though, the connections that have been made to share with others. This person has that friend, who knows someone there,…

Bringing Out the Best

It’s been difficult for everyone over the past few days to see the images coming out of TN, NC, and FL. They are images that will never be forgotten, things we’ve never seen before in our lifetime. Something happened yesterday afternoon though. I began noticing pictures and videos being posted that showed not the devastation…
