I was prompted to serve at a church satellite campus in 2014 by the Holy Spirit. The main campus was located in Knoxville, and I had attended that location following my move from Indiana in November 2012. The home church had several established satellite campuses, and this campus was the smallest. I had talked to Read More …

Love Heals
I was wide awake around 4 am on October 12, 2016, and experienced a vision. This was a single image and very vivid in detail. I fell asleep afterwards and woke around 6 am following a profound dream. I was actually in the dream. The dream starts with me riding in a car and a Read More …
Christmas 2022
My daughter and I discussed Christmas plans in November. Usually I drive down in a rental car, but she was concerned about the fatigue I experience after the long drive. She checked the cost and discovered that I could fly cheaper this year than rent a car. I was surprised. After consideration of the differences Read More …
Happy Birthday To Me!!!
I was thinking about my upcoming birthday, in the early 2000s, about 20 years ago, while I was sitting at work. Usually the birthday fund in the office provided a cake for an employee’s birthday, but on occasion this did not happen if several birthdays had recently occurred. I was excited about my birthday that Read More …
Visitation
The power went off on Tuesday morning, July 10, 2013, at 5:00 a.m., and I awakened immediately. “Oh no!” was my first thought. The weather forecast had predicted another hot summer day and it would not take long for the cool of the evening to be replaced by the heat of the day inside my Read More …
Help
One Saturday night in October 2021, I left a client’s house in Elkhart at 9 pm after a two-hour shift. As I pulled out of the driveway, something sounded wrong. I parked at the curb and walked around the vehicle. The front passenger tire was flat. I had recently added roadside assistance to my auto Read More …
Keep On Pedaling, 7/29/2022
I want to preface this post by stating that I did not write the words below. This piece showed up in my memories today, from 2014, so that would have been during the years I was living in Knoxville. I was deeply moved the first time I read the words, and today the words and Read More …
Letter, 7/17/2022
Last week I received a sweet surprise in the mail. Beverley’s daughter recently found an undated letter that her mother had written to me while I was living in Knoxville. I had mailed a signed copy of “Showered By Grace” to Bev when I received my first shipment of books. She referenced the receipt of Read More …
St. Peter’s Home
I remember a large orphanage in Memphis when I was growing up, located on an impressive block of prime real estate in Midtown Memphis. Black wrought iron fencing wrapped around the property. We passed by this location whenever we drove down Poplar Avenue or when we visited Overton Park, and I would wonder about the Read More …
Church
I have attended church faithfully since Scott’s death. I love corporate praise and worship, and I am spiritually nourished by the Word of God spoken from the pulpit. That being said, I have struggled with “church people” since I returned to church as an adult with Scott in 2008. My only previous experience was with Read More …
