It’s May 9th and it is snowing outside. That is just not right. Some things should not go together, like May and snow. These unmatchable things seem to violate nature, or at least common sense.

Most every morning I spend some time with God. I speak with Him and He speaks to me through prayer and His Word. While I was praising Him this morning, I was overcome with the thought that He alone is… So many attributes of God make Him like no other being. Therefore, I want toContinue reading “Morning Insights”

I worked most of my life in leadership positions. I consider myself to be an effective leader, but not necessarily a good or great leader.

I lacked goodContinue reading “Practical Leadership”
