Growth and Change

They’re not looking at your faith based on how many scriptures you can quote. They’re looking for your faith when the oven is on broil or your dwelling place is a glacier.

It’s cruel on some level, particularly when you make … [Read more...]

Not Too Deep

Shallow water is fun to splash in, but you're not planning for a full on swim with those bright yellow boots on. Swimming in the deep end of the pool is for people who know how to.

A Tale of Two Cashiers

My cashier is distracted and keeps turning back around to see her fellow teammate at the next checkout line. She gave me the normal salutation and of course I responded back with the same pleasantries. Who is ever ready for the “what happens next” scenarios? She began to tell me I wouldn’t believe what just happened to her friend working behind her. I wish I could say otherwise, but that’s just … [Read more...]
