Sometimes God shows up in little strange places where a situation might give me a revelation about Him in some way. That happened this weekend. Let me preface by saying I notoriously appreciate him more in the little insignificant moments, the blue door moments (shout out to my house buying story). These are the times… Continue reading That’s what dads do…

Every year…
Sitting here in the cool, crisp morning air, I’m reminded of how seasons change. The last time I was here was a couple of weeks ago and it was warm, almost hot, before that it was stifling.
