I missed Oliver North’s latest article a few days ago but I’ve finally come to my senses and brought myself up to speed. He shares the following, but you must read the whole thing yourself. Yes, war is dangerous and unpredictable. But don’t believe the cynics and critics who tell you that our young men […]
Enough faith?
by Maynard H. Belt — Reprinted with permission “He….encouraged them all that with purpose of heart they should continue with the Lord.” Acts 11:23 Sometimes I just don’t think that I have enough faith! Yes, you heard me right. Sometimes I just don’t think that I have enough faith….especially when I read Hebrews Chapter 11. […]
Prayer and mourning
Sadly, tonight we have news that a U.S. Marine helicopter crashed in Kuwait killing all 4 American and 8 British soldiers aboard (corrected count).

Ah, there’s my blog
Amidst all the boxes from the move “up north” I seem to have misplaced my blog. I couldn’t remember which box I put it in, but as you can tell I finally found it. Our move to Higgins Lake was fairly uneventful, which is just the way you want a move to go. We had […]
Space Shuttle Columbia lost
A couple weeks ago The Homeschooling Revolution reported that the commander of the Space Shuttle Columbia, Col. Rick Husband, is a Christian, homeschooling dad.
