I hope you never pass me on the road when I am in a country frame of mind cause county music make me cry. I know I am supposed to be tough but some of those songs are geared to rip your heart out (if you have one, men). One of my favorite [...]

I attend an outstanding church. Great teaching, great worship, great programs, great vision, great staff, great congregation and the Lord’s favor is on us. We are blessed and I love to go to church. My family has a number of volunteer responsibilities there and my wife is even working part time at [...]
