A Prayer for Our Nation at 250
A Prayer for Our Nation at 250 Today is a big day in American history – the Semiquincentennial of American Independence, or in other words, it has been 250 years since July 4, 1776. What a blessing to all of us who are citizens here, and also to individuals all over the world. As discussed yesterday, this is nothing less than the abundant blessings of God for all of us. We pause to reflect with…

Across the nation, there will be celebrations, fireworks, family gatherings, patriotic songs, and expressions of gratitude. For many Americans, this anniversary provides an opportunity to reflect on the blessings we…
The Trap of Social Media
The Trap of Social Media ~ and the challenge of self-deception Not that any of us remember this – as it did not happen in our lifetime; however, it is worth thinking back to the story that is told by Moses. Adam and Eve were living together in a perfect marriage, perfect environment, and with a perfect relationship with God. But then, the craziest thing happened. A serpent showed up with an…

Today, as this funeral takes place at 1:00 pm at James River Church,…
He Lays Down His Life for His Friends
He Lays Down His Life for His Friends This week two Christian County sheriff deputies lost their lives in service to our county, Deputies Gabriel Ramirez (30) and Michael Hislope (40), who both grew up here, graduated from our local high school, and served in combat in the US Army. Both killed by a ruthless, wicked criminal act. Our entire community mourns with these families and their fellow…
Our Community Mourns Together, Again
Our Community Mourns Together, Again Twelve years ago on February 19, 2014, this blog began on a day our community did not want – the death of sweet Hailey Owens (link here). It began in shock. It began with tears. It began with a town trying to catch its breath after the murder of a child. Back then, we mourned the loss of Hailey Owens. We mourned innocence stolen. We mourned the realization…
Officer Down ~ a Deadly Day in the Ozarks
Officer Down ~ a Deadly Day in the Ozarks Today, our hearts are heavy. Once again, a law enforcement officer has lost his life in the line of duty – this time, right here in our county – Deputy Gabriel Ramirez, 30 years old and a 2013 graduate of Ozark High School. A routine traffic stop turned deadly, and, again, our community is shaken. Families, fellow officers, and our community are left…
Whiter than Snow!
Whiter than Snow: though your sins were as scarlet… It’s a snow day – in fact, more like a snow week! As I write, it is so quiet I can hear flakes of snow hitting the ground. Everything outside my window looks quieter than usual. Covered. Clean. The roads are slower, the noise is lower, and for a moment it feels like the world is breathing easier. Snow has a way of doing that. It doesn’t fix…

Partnering with You ~ Serving You
As 2025 closes, thank you for another great year of ministry together. What a great blessing to walk alongside you on this blog. As another year ends, I am thankful to have shared this space with you over the previous twelve months. We can say again in 2025, outside of 2020 when everyone stayed home because of COVID, this has been the best year ever on the blog site. Readership was up again this…
Will Jesus Christ Return in 2026? Why Is This Significant?
Will Jesus Christ Return in 2026? Why Is This Significant? As one year ends and a new one begins, I can’t help but ask two questions to myself, “Will Jesus Christ return in 2026?” with its follow-up, “Why is this significant?” Have you thought about this? Are either one of these questions that you are considering as well? If you are a follower of Jesus Christ, my guess is you have considered at…
A Year Passes, and Faithfulness Remains by Howard Eyrich
A Year Passes, and Faithfulness Remains by Howard Eyrich I can’t believe another year has passed. Time flies when we’re fully engaged in following Him with beloved friends. What a year 2025 has been. Culturally, it has been marked by uncertainty, division, and rapid change. Many feel the strain of fractured relationships, institutional instability, and an ever-present sense that the ground…
It Happened Again This Year – What Is So Different about Christmas?
It Happened Again This Year – What Is So Different about Christmas? Very early yesterday, Christmas morning, my brother-in-law drove across the state of Texas. Upon arrival later some family time together, he mentioned how incredible the people were as he stopped along the way. Extra smiles. Politeness. Actually talking to each other. As he and I discussed what he had noticed, my mind went back…
On this Christmas Eve: Jesus Came to Dwell Among Us
On this Christmas Eve: Jesus Came to Dwell Among Us Christmas Eve invites followers of Jesus Christ to pause in the midst of the busyness and festivities to reflect on the profound mystery at the heart of this season. As I sit here and write, the Christmas tree sparkles with just the light of a small lamp in the room. Music and traditional carols play in the background. The rooms are filled with…
Comparing the Highlight Reel of Others to Your Real Life
Comparing the Highlight Reel of Others to Your Real Life Someone relayed a conversation to me recently (without names) that is worth a moment’s reflection. One friend asked the other, “You don’t think anyone picked up how bad our family is struggling on my posts, do you?” Of course the person is referring to what is placed on social media through Facebook, Instagram, TicToc, and other platforms.…

Waiting Well in Long-Term Struggle
Waiting Well in Long-Term Struggle James 5:7–12 I am grateful for the incredible discussion today in my life group, similar to the conversation about faith that works. In our conversation, we discussed how long-term struggles have a way of wearing us down. When a trial stretches beyond days into weeks, months, or even years, the weight of discouragement can begin pressing heavily on the soul. In…
