Life is not as easy as it appears on television or social media. As we watch television and see no one working 40 hours a week and yet getting to go to the coffee shop daily, we get a false idea of life in our minds. I like Seinfeld and Friends but who has time … Continue reading Every Test, Every Temptation

The Denomination of Non
When I speak with people about church, they always ask the denomination. Then I say, “Oh it’s non-denominational.” It’s an interesting phrase. There’s different denominations (for example Catholic, Methodist, Lutheran, Baptist). Then there’s non-denominational.

This does not mean we should only give our best at work or our best at … Continue reading Your Best Songs
Crumbling Bags
When I reached back to the bag rack, I noticed that there was a bunch of crumbled bags that were placed inside the first bag on the rack. They must have fallen off the rack, come off with other bags, or posed a problem by being too difficult to open during bagging. As a result, … Continue reading Crumbling Bags
Tower Building
In Genesis 11, the people were attempting to build a tower to make a name for themselves which resulted in the people being scattered.
