Mt. Charleston

Went for a walk this morning with Angel. It was a nice, and we decided that since we’re waiting on the closure of our house, and since we are taking a staycation instead of a vacation, we decided that we were going to go up to Mt. Charleston and make a day of it.  We [...]

MRI

Thanks to some connections, and an MRI staff that was able to get me in yesterday, I’ve already received my results.  Everything came back negative!  Praise the Lord!
Have you ever had an MRI?  If you get claustrophobic in tight areas, than you might have a problem.  A couple of times, I had to just chill [...]

Pain

Pain has innate way of telling you & me that something isn’t right.  The way God has uniquely crafted us, and given us pain receptors, never ceases to amaze me.  Pain can sometimes be good, and pain can sometimes be bad.
Ever since I came back from Bolivia in January of 2008, I had been wrestling [...]

Home!

Well, we closed on our house today.  Very excited!  We hope to have keys on Friday.  Now the fun begins!
We will give our lease agent 30 days notice, and we’ll begin moving everything over to our new home.  Once we get everything moved out, the cleaning & painting begins on the rental.   Yes, we have [...]

Scramble Lesson

I golfed in a fund-raiser yesterday at “Bears Best” golf-course in Summerlin. Great course, and you would never know we are in a recession by the houses that are being built on the course. Sick!
I’ve golfed in fund-raisers over the years, and have even led the charge in hosting them. They can [...]

Connection Sunday

I’ve been waiting for Connection Sunday for some time. Connection Sunday is a time in which the church is brought together for the purpose of connecting people into relationships. I believe Christianity summed up is “Relationships”.
We had over 60 people tonight! I never anticipated that we would have that many people participate. [...]

Carpet Sweeping

Have you ever been asked to do something, and you wait tell the last minute? We probably all have done that at some time. Some people are amazing procrastinator’s and I tend to be a good one, but I’m really trying to change my ways.
OK, go one step further than procrastination and you [...]

The Dugout

I’m doing a wedding tomorrow night at Mt. Charleston.  Here’s one of my favorite marriage stories.
Ruth Ryan, wife of Hall of Fame pitcher Nolan Ryan, had one moment she looked forward to in every one of her husbands games.  In her book “Covering Home,” she writes:  It probably happened the first time on the high [...]

Smokey Joe!!!

In the process of hunting down & moving to buy a house, my wife (Angel – she really is!!;)), and I moved to get approval from various lenders.  We received the approvals, and ultimately chose to go with a lender that we felt was the best representation for us.
The day we walked in to seal [...]

The Line

I start a new series tomorrow entitled “Called!”  I don’t want to give away the farm by sharing everything about the series, so, in short, the series will cover a few things that I believe every Christ Follower is called to.  One of those things is relational community, and how in Las Vegas, I’ve found [...]
