For about 30 years, the United States faced a series of monumental historical landmarks: World War 1, the Roaring Twenties, the Great Depression and World War 2. Having taught United States history, I would say that I know quite a bit about what took place. At least I thought I did. When I read the […]

The Lines of It’s All Under Control by Jennifer Dukes Lee
I was honored to be a part of the book launch team for the book, It’s All Under Control by Jennifer Dukes Lee. I am a fan of her writing and greatly appreciate her genuine love of Jesus that is so apparent. Plus I can tell that she is truly a fun person! I did receive […]

Taking a Risk (the Ballot Line-up)
Risk:to venture upon; take or run the chance of: Learning to play the guitar was one of my goals in my early 20’s. Perhaps it was possibly because I was slightly enamored with the cute single instructor. But I borrowed my grandparents old guitar – the one that must have been purchased at a discount chain because […]

Lines of Wilderness Wanderers
I never used to get how the Israelites felt after they left Egypt. Why they complained and grumbled. Why they wanted to go back. Hello? Come on, people! God just walked you through the SEA. On dry ground. Plus He continued to show Himself in miraculous ways. Having honey wafers just show up on the ground or […]

When the New Year started, my goal was to post on this site every other week. Since over two months have passed since I last posted, obviously I have been rather unsuccessful. I heard a quote once that said that “Man makes plans. God laughs.” While I think that quote might not completely be consistent with God’s […]

Reflections from the first half of 2 Corinthians I have pondered the line in the past. “God never gives you more than you can handle.” A saying that makes you feel guilty after you feel overwhelmed or discouraged when life takes you on a different path than you anticipated. The one that makes you wonder […]

Once upon a time I wanted to learn to play guitar. Absconding my grandparents’ really old out-of-tune guitar, the one that no one is quite sure why they had since neither of them played, I sought an instructor. Conveniently I asked the guy I had a crush on and one lesson presumed. I was supposed […]

As I mentioned yesterday, Kyle’s cousin (and now dear friend of mine) is releasing her 2nd book today! I know how excited I am about her next book being available, so I cannot imagine how she is doing about now! Since I had the privilege of being one of the early readers, I am hoping […]

Today is a “Severe Weather Alert” day across Nebraska. Having lived in the area of the Hallam tornadoes a decade ago, I definitely pay more attention if bad weather is coming my way. To be honest, all that could happen today makes a bit nervous. Praying “please don’t send them my way” seems a bit […]
