During the last few months I have made trips to Tennessee, Florida, California, and Arizona.

I received this magnificent painting in my inbox from Suzi—one of my social media friends. Her 19 year-old daughter, Kayla, painted it after being told by Suzi how much my book 41 Will Come impacted her.

Yesterday was Friday; Good Friday to be specific. Tomorrow is Sunday; Easter Sunday to be specific. Today is Saturday; nothing special to be specific. Saturday is the day between Friday and Sunday.

If you follow me on social media it will come as no surprise that I’m a longtime Chicago Cubs fan. I lived in Phoenix until I was almost twelve and back then Arizona didn’t have a MLB team–so I grew up watching the CUBS on WGN. Then I moved to central Illinois where you were […]

Posted on March 25, 2016 Leave a Comment
Is Good Friday good? For believers, Good Friday is somewhat of an oxymoron isn’t it? Kind of like jumbo shrimp, seriously funny, Hell’s Angels, deafening silence, freezer burn, and Microsoft Works.
