i write about living life well… a legacy is something we live, not leave.
People seem to talk to me above anyone else. It’s true. If 100 people are in a parking lot, people will see me, and walk past sixty more, just to ask me a question. Just the other day in the midst of a rain storm, I noticed when I crossed the parking lot that someone…
We fight over blankets at my house. Not in the bed, but in the living room. The place where we live, well except we spend most of our time in our kitchen and living room (den). I like a cool house. Mainly because with this century home, it can get very humid. So, to keep…
As a researcher, perpetual student, and resident “always available”, I get a lot of questions. As of today, I have answered directly over 2500 questions related to Scripture in an official capacity.

“It doesn’t get any better than this…” I thought as I looked at my infant daughter surrounded by my four other children and bride of 18 years. Something wells up inside when I see the glorious beauty of my family and in the best of humility, I praise God for them and for His grace…
