Army VALUES. Family VALUES.
Yesterday morning at church, a man from my neighborhood and I visited a few minutes and our conversation led to his two sons who have made serving in the Air Force a career. One was just promoted to Colonel. He quickly pulled up a photo of his sons and two of his grandsons, who all…
What’s Wrong With Me?
I had three siblings that graduated to heaven; two of them had Alzheimer’s disease and the other had Diabetes so severe that she lost one foot to the disease.

Where Do You Get Your Daily Nourishment?

Making Room for God
