Positive post Sunday, December 3, 2023- Week 353. It’s amazing how frequently God communicates with us each day. All we have to do is listen and see with open hearts and souls.

Positive post Sunday, November 26, 2023- Week 352. A few weeks ago, Michele and I were blessed to complete a ministry training series at our Parish.

Positive post Sunday, November 19, 2023- Week 351. The last 4 weeks have been very challenging as I continue to recover from an injury.

Positive post Sunday, October 22, 2023- Week 347. This week, I continued to reflect on how God speaks to me in my everyday life.

Positive post Sunday, October 15, 2023- Week 346. An open letter to my family. As you know, the Triangle of Life (Faith, Family and Fitness) is the foundation on which I live my life. When it comes to Fitness, it’s no secret that my primary exercise is cycling, or as you call it “Cardio”. …
Positive post Sunday, October 8, 2023- Week 345. Watching Toby Keith sing his song, “Don’t Let the Old Man In” after he was honored with the inaugural Country Icon Award at the 2023 People’s Choice Country Music awards inspired me to write about how important music is in my life.
