This week I want to present three situations I recently experienced as a way to ask how you would respond: Today I was at a wedding reception at Michelangelo’s, and I had to run back to my car because I forgot my tooth brush... you know, a typical thing people forget to bring in with them to a … [Read more...]
Are You a Good Boyfriend, Girlfriend, or Spouse?
When I work with couples getting ready for their wedding they typically try to sound better than they are... some couples need to try a little harder. I get they want the minister to like them and approve of the wedding, but let’s be honest about how things work. Being faithful to your partner … [Read more...]
Do you have the same problem as me?
This week I noticed that I have a problem... not the first time I’ve had this experience... I’m sure you’re surprised to read that. The sad thing is it’s actually a pretty common problem that most of us don’t really think about because so many people do it. I have a tendency to “brag” about how … [Read more...]

If she at least did something to screw me up that’d be awesome because I could say something like “Yeah, I’m this way because my parents beat the stuffing … [Read more...]
Is it Luck or God?
This morning I was driving to a small country church where I was filling in for the normal pastor who was away, and while I was casually driving and talking to myself (I was rehearsing what I was going to say; I’m not my own best friend) I looked in the rear-view mirror and saw red and blue flashing … [Read more...]

Oprah calls them ‘aha’ moments, but my response is more ‘oohhhhhh’ because to me “aha” is more of an “Aha, I knew you were up to no good; started making trouble in my neighborhood. I got in one little fight...” Sorry Fresh Prince flashback. Plus, ‘oohhhhh’ is … [Read more...]
