I’m sure we’ve all made New Year’s resolutions that have lasted no more than a day or so. Good News Wants to Know… In your lifetime, are there any New Year’s resolutions that you’ve kept? Although I believed in a higher power for years, I did not accept how much the local church meant to God. On New Year’s Eve many years ago, I made a resolution that I would make attending weekly worship a priority for the rest of my life. So far so good!

The angel went to her […]

Christmas morphs into ChristMISS I often have regrets after Christmas. I will regret spending too much time on the unimportant but momentarily critical noise rather than absorbing in the cackling of my many grandchildren, indulging in one of those, “hey dad, what if…..” conversations, hanging with friends, holding the hand of my wife, etc. Many of those regrets stem from not noticing, not listening and not seeing. I regret cutting a conversation short because I become bored with it and wanted to move on to something else. I regret times when I was more concerned about my diet than indulging in someone’s […]
