Fleeting Moments

I’ve been feeling nostalgic lately, probably because I’ve \been listening to “oldies but goodies” from my hey-day. From the Beatles, Sweet Baby James, and Three Dog Night (and don’t forget the Doobie Brothers), I ran across one from 1965 – “What the...Deep Roots
I grew up in Big D. From my first memories; I have been fascinated with trees. I just knew if I climbed all the way to the top, I could reach heaven. As I grew older, I became more aware of the world as we traveled around the country. When we went west, the...Prison Bars: Seen and Unseen
Anyone who has worked in a prison ministry has dealt with plenty of men and women incarcerated while living behind steel bars. Laws have been broken and you have been found guilty. There is no freedom. Prisoners are told when to wake up, when to eat, when to bathe,...CLEAN UP YOUR MESS
