We go on Vacation….
The first leg of our long-awaited travel time has finally arrived. The Lord provided unusual weather as it was sunny till we passed through Camp Verde and then rain on and off till reaching New Mexico and then, rain like heavy rain, like covering highways with water and mud rain. We just made it intoContinue reading “We go on Vacation….”
A Restaurant Critique…
That’s right, by me. I told our daughter that she should start a blog as a food critic. She knows the business well and eats out often. But she has refused so I have some photos and will do my very first and probably my last.

No problem, you can do it…
Famous last words from my buddy Bruce on changing the rear tire on my dirt bike. He talked me through the whole thing in less then 3 minutes. Then left for Colorado. Months went by and many rides on a semi bald tire. One day after failing to climb a steep hill we call roundContinue reading “No problem, you can do it…”
One of life’s pleasure…even at advanced years…
Riding a dirt bike is a lot of fun, but it is not without planing and much detail. At least for me. First, I have to line up a riding partner. You do not want to go far from home by yourself. A solo ride takes much more planning as Norm needs to know exactlyContinue reading “One of life’s pleasure…even at advanced years…”

Jonah, chapter 4…
Chapter 4. vs. 1. Jonah was just not a little mad, he was a lot mad. He really did not want salvation and God’s grace to come to the Gentiles. The reason for his running from God in the first place. Jonah becomes like the elder son from Luke 15: 25-31. vs. 2. JonahContinue reading “Jonah, chapter 4…”
Jonah, chapter three….
Chapter 3. This chapter could be titled, “The God of the second chance.” Our God is the God of the second chance! vs. 1. “The word of the Lord came a second time.” Not too many companies, businesses, or any one of us would give anyone a second chance, but God will and HeContinue reading “Jonah, chapter three….”
Book of Jonah, chapter Two….
Chap. 2 vs. 1. Some put a great deal of emphasis upon the word then—“Then Jonah prayed unto the Lord his God out of the fish’s belly.” The assumption is that this means after he had been in the fish three days and three nights, then he prayed. This is not what it means. ItContinue reading “Book of Jonah, chapter Two….”
Study of the Book of Jonah, chapter One…
Chap.1 vs 1. Jonah here is identified as a prophet. His name means “dove” and his Dad’s name means truthful or loyal. vs. 2. Jonah receives his orders directly from the Lord. Nineveh, the capital city of the Assyrian empire. Note that God identifies it by its wickedness. A great city filled with aContinue reading “Study of the Book of Jonah, chapter One…”
Introduction to the Sunday school study of the Book of Jonah…
Jonah is the book of the Bible which perhaps has been criticized more than any other. Unfortunately, many Christians thoughtlessly cast aspersions upon this important book in the canon of Scripture without realizing that they are playing into the hands of the critics and innocently becoming the dupes of the skeptics. You hear even ChristiansContinue reading “Introduction to the Sunday school study of the Book of Jonah…”

Leaping Lizards…
Not to often, but once in years do we come across a reptile like this in the desert. I was ripping up a small wash and came upon this fella before he had time to scurry into his shelter.

Are we Pillars or Caterpillars???
“Again may I say that I am afraid there are a great many people in the church who are caterpillars. Church members are either pillars or caterpillars; the pillars hold up the church, and the caterpillars just crawl in and out. There are a lot of people just crawling in and out of the church,Continue reading “Are we Pillars or Caterpillars???”

Sunday School, Book of Lamentations, chapter 2-3…..
Chapter 2:1. “How hath the Lord.” Most of chapter 2 depicts God’s Judgement in vivid pictures. God covered the Judeans with a cloud (verse 1), withdrew His hand of protection (verse 3), bent His bow and had slain with His arrows (verse 4), and marked a line to destroy the walls that He designated (verseContinue reading “Sunday School, Book of Lamentations, chapter 2-3…..”

Sunday School, Book of Lamentations…
“There is nothing like the Lamentations of Jeremiah in the whole world. There has been plenty of sorrow in every age, and in every land, but such another preacher and author, with such a heart for sorrow, has never again been born. Dante comes next to Jeremiah, and we know that Jeremiah was the greatContinue reading “Sunday School, Book of Lamentations…”
