Share Do People Look At You Strange? Are You a Gaijin? By Martin Schmaltz / a couple of years ago When I minister in other countries, there is this barely perceptible, but yet real emotional maybe psychological thing that happens when I return home. It seems that when I arrive back at the first major U.S. airport, there is this sigh and relaxation that passes through me. As I am making my way to immigrations, […]
Share Right Priorities By Don Doran / a couple of years ago Good morning! From the time we are small children there are certain things that are drilled into our minds as being important. Meals or food. We eat several times a day. Huge buildings are dedicated to selling food; eating places and advertisements are everywhere. Clothing is seen as a status symbol more than a covering. […]
Share Its time to believe By Steven Lewis / a couple of years ago We have heard it time and time again, “Don’t look back”, but we keep on turning our heads to see, and if not our heads our minds, and if not our minds our hearts. Jesus is soon to return and each and everyone of us is going to have to give an account for what […]
Share Disturbed!!! By Susan Niswonger / a couple of years ago I watched my 3-week old grandson as he lay in my arms fast asleep. Unable to resist, I gently nuzzled his soft little cheek. It was just enough, he opened his eyes and screwed up his little face; Grandma had disturbed him and he was not happy! Like Nathan I have settled into a comfortable […]
Share SALT the Great Influencer! By Don Doran / a couple of years ago SALT the Great Influencer! Good morning! Having a good day is your choice… “Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.” Matt 5:13 Have […]
Share The Process of Giving Birth By Sheri Boulet / a couple of years ago As a Labor and Delivery nurse I don’t often get to see the stages of labor played out before my eyes anymore since most of our patients opt to have an epidural which allows them to be in relative comfort for the most part until the birth. But the other night I had a beautiful […]
Share Have We Really Lost What We Had? By Gary Madden / a couple of years ago Have We Really Lost What We Had? Two business men were flying over a lake almost home when one of them remarked, “Times have sure changed. I remember when I was a little boy down on that lake sitting in a boat fishing and looking up at the planes flying over and wishing I […]
Share Check the Madness By Steven Lewis / a couple of years ago If you listen to the topics of today it all spells doom, doom, and more doom. The reason it spells it so loud and clear is because the evil that runs free on this Earth has made it where they are scared about everything. I wrote this article Check the Madness because people need to be […]
Share His Name Was Shawn: Did He Know About Jesus? By Susan Niswonger / a couple of years ago Yesterday, I met Shawn. A friendly, talkative 10 year old, sporting a “Desert Storm t-shirt” and desperately wanting to go swimming in Higgins Lake. Jenesa, and I were sitting on the beach watching Caleb frolic in the sand and water and Nathan was snoozing under the umbrella. Caleb assumed everyone was family and every toy […]
Share No One Said It Would Be Easy By Sheri Boulet / a couple of years ago When I was going to nursing school, things were pretty tough for us. We made many sacrifices so that I could finish knowing that in the end all the sacrifices would be worth the result. We had one car for most of that time.
