Still Living Among the Living
I can’t help myself — I still have my Easter decor’ up and am still living in the moment of embracing my risen Savior. He lives! Christ Jesus lives today. He walks with me and talks with me and tells me I am His own. He lives. He lives — salvation to impart. You ask…
Forty More Days – He’s Not Done Yet
There’s forty more days of Easter. Don’t pack up the lilies.Don’t tuck away the joy. Easter wasn’t a one-day celebration.It was just the beginning.

God’s Not Dead — He’s ALIVE!
The stone is rolled away. The tomb is empty.And heaven is not whispering — it’s shouting! HE’S ALIVE!!! What looked like a grave — was really a doorway.What looked like the end — was heaven shouting — “Watch this!” Peter said it best: “It was not possible for death to hold Him.” (Acts 2:24) Not…
He Walked Among Us and We Walk with Him
Today is Ascension Thursday — a day many believers don’t realize carries as much awe as Easter morning. We often shout “He is risen!” And rightfully so. But do we whisper the second half of the miracle? He stayed a while — for 40 extra days! For forty days — after coming out of that…
Pope Francis’ Trip to Heaven
On Easter Monday morning, Pope Francis made his final journey — this time, straight into the arms of the One he loved and served so faithfully.

Change My Heart, Oh God!
Today is Ash Wednesday. It kicks off the season of Lent — a 40-day journey leading to Easter. It’s a season of reflection, renewal, and re-centering our hearts on Christ. But for those who’ve never observed it, Lent might sound like an overly somber religious ritual — kind of like giving up chocolate just to…
40 More Days of Easter
Hold it! The Easter season (the resurrection of our Lord and His time on earth before ascending to heaven) is still underway. For 40 days after His resurrection, Jesus was “in and out” of places and people’s lives during that time. He was showing up when they least expected Him. Can you imagine being one…
A Brand New Life
Last June, my son’s family’s precious 14-year-old Havanese, Bentley, went to doggy heaven. We closed that chapter of caring for him and making him feel comfortable, but the love for him will never leave us. We’ll forever cherish the precious memories of Bentley growing up with my four Wuerch grandsons. It really is like losing…
