Clarksville, TN – Friday stunk. Or at least my attitude did.
“Stupid rain. I can’t find anything I am looking for. Car won’t start. Nothing is going my way, not today, not lately…”
Ever feel sorry for yourself? I do. I find it obnoxious, yet there I am tearing up driving down the rainy interstate because God doesn’t make everything peachy for me or give into my every desire.
Well I drug my pitiful self into the Montgomery County Jail. I signed into the “Religious Visits” clipboard, I sat down in the metal fold up chair in front of the monitor, and I picked up the phone with the 3 foot cord on it. A female inmate looked at me and started talking. And I was still feeling sorry for myself.

Or are you “that” friend? «Read the rest of this article»

Are We a Culture of Hoaxers and Liars?
Clarksville, TN – Better is a poor person who walks in his integrity than one who is crooked in speech and is a fool. –Proverbs 19:1
Is this true? Well of course it is.
Let me ask it another way: is it true in our culture? Absolutely not.
I am over it.
Why do we spend all of our time teaching children the value of honesty, yet we promote those who lie, time and time again? Do we enjoy being made a fool? Do we enjoy watching the ridiculousness of it all unfold? «Read the rest of this article»
