Week 373

Positive post Sunday, April 21, 2024…. Week 373.  I’m grateful God’s plan for me included reaching yet another milestone yesterday, a milestone that unfortunately I have achieved several times before.  Yesterday was the 1st day I rode my bike on the street with some of my riding buddies after my open-heart surgery 8 weeks ago. …

Week 372

Positive post Sunday, April 14, 2024…. Week 372.  During my recovery, I have been able to catch up on my reading over the past several weeks.  I love to read (and write)!  Yes, Dana Rendler (mom), I realize this is quite a change from my early years when you couldn’t get me to read or…

Week 371

Positive post Sunday, April 7, 2024…. Week 371.  Have you ever received an unexpected gift that meant more to you than the person who gave it to you could ever image?  Well that happened to me!

Week 370

Positive post Sunday, March 31, 2024…. Week 370.  As I was preparing to write this PPS, I decided to look back over the last few years and see what I wrote on Easter Sunday.  Not surprisingly, I began each PPS with, He has risen, Alleluia, Alleluia!  I also wished a very Happy Easter Sunday to…

Week 369

Positive post Sunday, March 24, 2024…. Week 369.  The last 2 weeks I focused on being relevant rather than being recognized and turning success into significance.  I am blessed to have the opportunity to pursue both through my renewed relationship with Jay McCall and Brian Cameron.  By the grace of God, I have been blessed…

Week 368.  Keeping with the theme from last week, this week’s PPS is titled, From “Success” to “Significance”.  As background, by the grace of God, and the sharing of a photo of my tee ball team on Facebook, I’ve recently been reunited with two longtime friends, Jay McCall and…

Week 367

Positive post Sunday, March 10, 2024…. Week 367.  I’ve given this week’s PPS a title, “From Recognition to Relevance”.  I’m the first to admit that throughout my life, I’ve appreciated being recognized for the accomplishments and milestones I have achieved.  Whether it was winning a baseball or football game in my early years, or graduating…

Week 366

Positive post Sunday, March 3, 2024…. Week 366.  Thanks to the grace of God, here I am BACK HOME for my regularly scheduled programming!  Well, considering what my family and I have just gone through, this PPS will certainly not be regular.  As covered by my loving daughters last week, I once again escaped death…

Week 365

Positive Post Sunday, February 25, 2024… Week 365 Written by Dan’s daughters- Heather, Stacy, Alison, and Kristy.  When we told our dad we would handle his Positive Post this week, he tried to micromanage it in true Dan fashion. He requested that we don’t make it about him. Luckily, we have no problem ignoring him,…
