It was January 1985 when I stood in the Garden Tomb area and walked down to the tomb to look inside.  The Lord’s presence was real and I was blessed by being there.  We would go up into the garden and view the hill called Golgotha, where we saw three crosses and could see the [...]

Several years ago I took a group of boys from an Explorer Post to Philmont Scout Ranch just outside Cimarron, New Mexico.   We were ambitious back in those days and so for our ten day hike we chose the mountain climbing, five or six peaks over a 126 mile trek.   We began the first day [...]

While in Memphis a couple of weeks ago I heard a college president talk about Revelation 21: 1 — 7.  This passage speaks about going home and heaven.  He then spoke about Max Lucado’s book, “The Applause of Heaven” and paraphrased the last two pages.  My mind went back to a youth meeting in Ft.

Today begins Homecoming 2009 at Toccoa Falls College.  This year we have much for which to thank the Lord.  New buildings for Gate Cottage and Counseling/Psychology are underway.  We will break ground for these two as well as dedicate the Outdoor Environmental Education Center.  The Lord has been good and we praise Him for all [...]

John 1:14 states “And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen His Glory, Glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.”  The song often goes through my head, “We have seen God’s Glory” and we know that today God’s Glory is Jesus Christ.  He [...]

Recently I was asked by a student at graduation if I would attend his ordination service the next day in another town.  I thought about the pressure of the weekend and wanted to just stay at home but I agreed to attend.  When my wife and I walked in the church we were escorted to [...]

This week I attended a conference where Crawford Loritts was the speaker.  He spoke of the deep joy that is below the surface.  He stated that ” joy has to do with relationship not circumstances.  Joy is resilient happiness, Joy is confidence, Joy is Jesus living in our hearts and lives.” Crawford used the Matthew [...]

In tough situations and in times of hard choices God is good and provides the direction we need.  Hebrews 11:6 says “And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.”  May God [...]

The school year at Toccoa Falls College is about to begin with classes beginning on Monday, August 24.  Our faculty and staff met last night for dinner to begin the new year.  On Saturday afternoon, August 22 and Sunday afternoon, August 23 my wife and I will host the freshman class at our home with [...]

I recently read the book “The Servant Leader” by Ken Blanchard and Phil Hodges.  I would highly recommend this book to people who are interested in being a servant leader in your organization.  As the writers explain, “Leadership is an influence process.  Knowing that we can see that Jesus is our model for leadership in [...]
