Summer is officially here! For many of us, summer is typically a time of relaxation and ease.

When you think of change, does a feeling of uneasiness arise within you? Honestly, I don’t know many people that enjoy change.

Traveling has become so much easier with the invention of the GPS. In the past, we had to rely on maps or when all else failed, stopped for directions.

Statistics claim that a whopping 60 to 80 percent of evangelical kids will “backslide.” As a father of four, this deeply concerns me.

Our environment, education, goals, family and friends, and heroes all influence our choices. As a parent, I made many decisions for my […]

Have you ever asked, “Why not me, Lord?” Sometimes life’s disappointments make us question God’s plans.
