My brother-in-law, Tig, told me a story about his recent elk hunting trip in Colorado. His hunting party was driving down a mountain dirt road when it began to rain. They continued traveling as the dirt turned to mud, and found that they had gotten stuck in the ruts of those that had gone ahead of them. At that point they had no choice but to go forward. No turning left or right because the ruts h ... Read Christian Column

Yesterday my daughter gave me a picture of my grandson Jude. I had forgotten all about it. It showed him reaching out to touch a little horny toad. Seeing that picture made me smile in surprise because I remembered how much I loved horny toads. I grew up chasing and catching them as a child in Oklahoma, and had not seen one in over 35 years. That reminder also made me think of the other times God ... Read Christian Column

On a deeply cloudy morning in 1975 I sat waiting…highly anticipating my very first airplane ride. My parents and siblings had driven home the week before from my Aunt Sharon’s ranch in Oregon, but I was given the opportunity to stay an additional week and fly home by myself. I found Oregon a nice place to visit with one exception; it had been overcast, rainy and dreary for our entire stay. By ... Read Christian Column

While sitting and listening during a warm summer afternoon at my best friend Samantha’s grandparents farm, I found myself completely attentive to every word that her grandfather had said. He was explaining how his world-renowned California oranges, “South Shores Best,” had earned such a household name. He went on for hours, backtracking, making sure he didn’t leave out any details. The plantin ... Read Christian Column

Legacy, such a strong and meaningful word that truly defines one’s character, morals and accomplishments. Through Legacy, an individual leaves behind unforgettable memories, an emotional tie that forever binds the heart and mind. We all choose what we want to leave behind, but ultimately what to give away. Giving in this sense is not of the materialistic essence or understanding, but from a spirit ... Read Christian Column

I grew up in the Midwest, Oklahoma City to be exact, right in the middle of tornado country, and there, Spring always announced itself in the very same way. Late in the afternoons the horizon would grow dark as blue black clouds bellowed and burped their way across the sky. I have vivid memories of watching them roll in and knowing their power. My heart would beat faster as anticipation, fear, ... Read Christian Column

When I was pregnant with my youngest child it was discovered that we had Rh-factor incompatibility. My blood type is Rh negative, and hers is not, and somehow a very small amount of her blood crossed over into my system. This made for a difficult pregnancy which involved constant monitoring by a neo-natal specialist, and eventually an in-utero blood transfusion in the seventh month of gestation. ...

Nothing was imaginary in the Land of Real Reality. By the age of 21, every resident, through grit, guts, goal-setting, and self-respect, owned his or her own business. By the age of 30, most citizens owned their own homes (paid for with cash) and had started their own families. A Dream Come True was not only the norm but the expectation. Governments were not allowed to interfere in the ini ... Read Christian Column
