I was recently sitting at a funeral of a neighbor and one of the readings for the service was from 1 Cor 13:1-13, otherwise known as the “Love” verse.
After the scripture was read someone got up and began talking about how loving the deceased was. Not that I would expect anything else, but I often times think there are questions we ask that inevitably are answered the same way regardless of who we are asking.

I am under the belief that we live in a crazy, mixed up world that is confused about what life is really about.

Man, I am so pumped to be heading home after a great trip in Italy. It was nice to spend a little time alone with my ‘Bella’ (beautiful woman) and to see a country we have never visited before, but nothing beats your own house, especially when it’s filled with your 7 kids! I know many of you know exactly what I am saying. Continue reading
