My 100-Day Plan, Day 2: If … Then
"God does not give us everything we want, but He does fulfill His promises, leading us along the best and straightest paths to Himself." Dietrich Bonhoeffer I understood why actor Kirk Cameron came up with a 100-day plan, but why’d I end up with one? God made me an offer I couldn’t turn down before I got too comfortable with the one I’d...
My 100-Day Plan, Day 1: Challenged @ Kirk Cameron’s American Campfire Revival
“Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.” Abraham Lincoln I couldn’t help but laugh at this quote from President Lincoln.

Palmer Every Mother’s Day is a reminder of what a counselor told me 39 years ago, “Until you make peace with your mother, you’ll never be at peace with yourself.” After trying and failing to make peace face-to-face with Mom and then with her memory, I tried dismissing his counsel. After all, it’d been...

And second, if you believe it happened, you have to change the way you live.” Wolfhart Pannenberg The title of this blog post inspired by Casting Crowns' song, "Nobody." Every time I hear the word...
