If you follow this blog, you may already have read the article entitled, “Adoption.” The week our son and daughter-in-love adopted our two grandchildren was a blessed week.

Finding Healthy Balance
(Returning to articles published from 2020-2022, this was written in late April of 2021.) Last Saturday, my wife and I made a trip to Birmingham to see our children, who live in North Alabama. We enjoyed the time we had with them, visiting, laughing, and catching up on the latest events in their lives.Continue reading “Finding Healthy Balance”
Adoption
(I’m breaking my review of 2020-2022 articles to celebrate!) Unless they have been hiding under a rock, my friends on social media know that my bride and I had a very special occasion recently. Not only did we have one, but our entire family also had one. Because of this, the result was that myContinue reading “Adoption”
Living in Community
(This was originally written around St. Patrick’s Day 2021. It is a continuation of unpublished articles between 2020 and 2022. I guess I write a lot about community!) St. Patrick – Who was He? A lot of fuss goes into a day we seem to hardly know about. We joke, wear green, and say sayingsContinue reading “Living in Community”

(Imagine “White Christmas” playing in your ears right now.)Continue reading “Christmas of 2020”
The Hurricane of 2020

Back in the Saddle
It’s been a while. So…I began a blog in 2020…and I quit blogging in 2020. This week I decided to get back in the saddle…it’s 2022. A lot has happened since 2020…a whole lot. In any case, I have been writing since then. I wrote a doctoral project and completed a degree. I have writtenContinue reading “Back in the Saddle”
What’s the Church To Do With COVID-19 Now?
The congregation entered from the rear of the sanctuary and was told to avoid utilizing the restrooms. They were asked to wear masks and to take one from the church’s supply if they forgot their own. The time to shake hands arrived and left with only virtual hugs and air high-fives. Families sat together andContinue reading “What’s the Church To Do With COVID-19 Now?”
