If playing golf helps me relax and focus, doesn’t that make it a business expense?
Just a short post for Thursday. I played golf first thing this morning and didn’t have time to write earlier in the day. I know what you’re thinking: “How can this guy sit there at his computer and admit to playing golf instead of working.” This may sound farfetched, but I am not blowing smoke…

Life, Prosperity & Abundance (A Conversation with Max)
So I was talking to my dog about a few things – as one does. You know, about life, and the Universe, and chasing rabbits, and just how glorious it is to walk through the park when it’s 65-degrees and sunny. And I said something like, “Hey Max; you’re pretty happy, aren’t you?” And he…

Success! Our first “in-person” men’s ministry gathering
Blessing and honor and glory and power belong to the one sitting on the throne and to the Lamb forever and ever. Revelation 5:13 This morning I want to share a moment of real joy.

Job – a timely word for those who feel in exile
I know today is supposed to be “Five Photo Friday”, but instead I’m going to take a little bit of a “side trip” and invite you to follow along with a Bible study. To be precise, it’s “Job.” Job is one of those books a lot of people scratch their heads about and say, “leave…
Soccer: still “a kick in the grass.” Throwback to 2011
Yesterday, checking for notifications on the various Apps littering my phone, a flurry of activity popped up on “Facebook Messenger.” One of my friends from the 1976-1979 Stetson University soccer squad had reactivated a long dormant conversation thread.
