“Here’s what’s happening in your world even as we speak.” I don’t know if they are original to him, but these words were made famous by Willard Scott, the former ‘weatherman’ on NBC’s Today show.

I trust you had a great Christmas! Just in case though, I wanted to be sure and give you a good reason for a good ol’ belly laugh so I found these frivolously funny signs just for you. I don’t know about you but I’m thoroughly confused by this one and I must admit it [...]

According to reliable reports coming in from the fictitious town of Whoville, it is now an indisputable fact that the Grinch has stolen Christmas! Reported sightings of the ‘mean green monster’ carting away all the presents belonging to the entire town, have created an extreme sense of disillusionment amidst speculations that this might be the [...]

It’s truly amazing how quickly time goes by when you’re living life to the fullest. The last three years have been an amazing season for my family and I. We’ve ‘fallen’ deeper in love with Central Florida and the people we are called to serve. We’ve, surprisingly, developed somewhat of an aversion to really cold [...]

I was on a friends blog and I found this youtube video. I’m not ashamed to say that it brought tears to my eyes! You see, I live in a world where ‘performance’ is a pre-requisite for ’success’, and as a pastor, everybody measures your success largely based on parameters that [...]

As you’ve probably noticed, my blogging has been somewhat sporadic over the last couple of weeks, and much of what I’ve posted has been fairly ‘heavy’ stuff.

The silence is deafening! The ‘angry mob’ that has sought to oust the ‘Kenyan born usurper’ would appear to have failed in their bid to disprove his citizenship.

So, Sola and I just returned from a fabulous 3-day cruise to the Bahamas (Nassau to be precise). We had an amazing time, not having to set an agenda and ‘pigging’ out like food was going out of style and we had to eat all we could before it was actually [...]

You haven’t read from me in a couple of days, but it is for good reason. I’ve been devouring copious amounts of material (written and video) regarding the troublesome issue of Barack Obama’s birth certificate. I watched (or rather listened on youtube) with distate, a purported phone call by a ‘bishop’ to Obama’s grandmother in [...]
