The G. A. Custer Backstory

It was on the hills of Eastern Montana that the life-defining act of a man would be decided.

NOW is the Time!

I read a blog today on a site which will remain nameless, with a title that will remain nameless, about a subject that will not remain nameless. Someone wrote about several things a pastor could do to avoid sexual temptation. They were listed and expanded on; then I took a moment to read the comments of people …

Deal with the Sin, but First Remove the Shame

Man Vs ?

In an effort to describe why I write my blog and stick to a singular topic stubbornly, I will use the Travel Channels show, Man v. Food as an analogy, no really! I enjoy watching Adam Richman attempt to consume mass quantities of food, and the entertaining way the show is presented. Each episode features local restaurants …

City of Hope (Official Lyric Video) // Brave New World // Amanda Cook Bethel Music

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KLtvB6D_lGs   I am trying to get there, I feel this song should move me and give some hope. Maybe it is yet to come...
