I wasn’t sleeping well that night. Maybe because I was looking forward to Christmas break so much as my second year in a new high school was nearly as stressful as the first. Well, by the time the phone rang, it was early morning, pre-dawn, and I had been awake for a few minutes. I [...]
Come see us April 18 at Hickory Grove Main Campus for the Global Missions Celebration. Each year our home church holds a Global Missions Week which culminates in a night of celebration at the end. The celebration is this coming Wednesday and we’d love to see you and/or meet you for the first time. When [...]
NASCAR stands for
National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing
but has become
Jimmie’s Association for Stock Car Auto Racing
I now understand why so many people grew to dislike Jeff Gordon back when he was winning so much. Unfortunately, the media is the main contributor for such good champion drivers to end up losing fans instead of gaining [...]
I finished cleaning up the RV (1999 Jayco Eagle 302FK) this afternoon and it is primed for selling! Actually, when I finished my last task of mopping the floors and had a chance to look around at it, I kinda wanted to keep it. Only long enough to take it to the beach for a [...]

Dana and I went to Waxhaw yesterday after church to check our PO Box and nest boxes. Low and behold 3 of the bluebird eggs have hatched! And, in the other house we left behind, there were four little Carolina Chickadee eggs. Thought I’d share the good news.

That’s how far we traveled last week on our trip to Florida. We started out with a 12-hour adventure to St. Petersburg long before the sun came up. The drive was supposed to be only 10 hours but once we arrived at our reserved hotel, well… it was, let’s say, not as we [...]
“Oh man, here’s one of those weird missionary people who got his hands on a blog. Next thing you know he’ll be sending out a petition e-mail against Piggly Wiggly for selling Budweiser in a 100-pack!” No, I’m not some freakazoid who enjoys making legalistic stands but I do have morals.
