  • Healings!

    Praise God!  I’ve been healed!  Not just once, but TWICE! After struggling for months and months with persistent knee pain (due to a fall suffered while walking two VERY excited Wheaten Terriers on a trail through Custer State Park), I got a… Continue reading

  • Miraculousness

    I didn’t see it this time. Colorado was too far away from the “path of totality” for even a hint of a glimpse of yesterday’s total solar eclipse. But we did get to experience this eerie natural phenomenon in 2017… Continue reading

  • Our unwelcome, uninvited visitor

    We received the official word on the morning of September 21. That was the day we found out that most of our attention and energy, for now, will focus on dealing with my wife’s cancer diagnosis. It was the last… Continue reading
