I feel like my voice has been awakened for you.  The faithful, strong, loving husbands and fathers.

I woke up early and angry.  Strange combination huh?  Anyway, I wanted to practice my sermon a few times before the kids got up and totally distracted me.  Of course, being angry it was really hard to get my mind wrapped around the sermon.  So, I spent a few [...]

If you were to die tomorrow, what would you regret about your life?  Who would you wish you had [...]

This will be short.  I am sorry for not updating recently and don’t really have a good reason.
My reality has been turned upside down.  I have a hole in my heart that only God can fill for me.  Thank God for Todd Hoffman and his country get away in Sandy, OR.  He has been so [...]

I received this email while on my field trip up at Univera Headquarters in Lacey, WA yesterday afternoon.  I almost burst out laughing in front of 300 people and the CEO of the company.  Please read and keep out of reach of teenage boys due to some graphic language.

Happy New Year!
This is the slowest pace of life I have experienced for a long time here at Eagle Crest!  It is nice but I get a little bored too.  Only one computer can be online at a time plus I left my power cord for my laptop at home.  Pretty Lame.
