EV batteries!


If you could un-invent something, what would it be?

They don’t work well in cold weather!

Of course I can!


Can you share a positive example of where you’ve felt loved?

I always feel loved at home and at church too. Love is found in those places most of the time. Have a wonderful day!

A dog…


What is your favorite animal?

Specifically, Dachshunds. I became attached to this breed in 2005 when we got our first, Trixie, and I don’t believe I would want any other breed. They are loyal companions and they show their love to those who love them. It doesn’t matter whether it’s a standard, a miniature or the one that is called a rabbit, they are all loving and protective to their humans.

God says…


What are your thoughts on the concept of living a very long life?

We’re supposed to take care of our parents, honor them and it will add years to your life. Look it up if you want because it’s one of the Ten Commandments.

To tell others


What is your mission?

When I was called to preach in 2011, that was and is still my calling. God doesn’t take back His calling. Just as the oath I took when I joined the Air Force forty-three years ago, that oath has not been taken back.

My mission is to let as many people know about my Savior as I can. If you don’t want to read it, don’t. God loves you whether you know it or not. He sent Jesus Christ to pay for all of humanity’s sins and when you realize that you need Him, ask Him to forgive you and to make your heart receptive to His Spirit. You will be changed to be more like Him and your life will never be the same.

Lots of things…


What could you do differently?

It depends on what we’re talking about doing? I could cook breakfast differently but why? It turns out the same most of the time.

I could tell more people about my Savior and I do that here. God called me to be a preacher and this blog is the best place to be. I’ve been doing this for ten years so let me know what I need to change.

The future…


Do you spend more time thinking about the future or the past? Why?

Because the past is done and thinking about it can’t do anything except cause stress and sometimes regret. Tomorrow isn’t here yet but you can think about it and plan although I wouldn’t plan too far ahead. None of us know for sure if we will be here tonight, so think about where you want to spend eternity more than you think and worry about things you can’t do anything about.

Yes, I do


Do you play in your daily life? What says “playtime” to you?

I don’t play pranks on my wife but we do occasionally say things that we understand are just loving jabs. Done with love for each other. We’ve been together for 32 years and I pray that others will be committed enough to learn to love your partner and stay together.

Those who give you direction


What relationships have a positive impact on you?

What do I mean by that? Relationships that give advice rather than tell you what to do. People who can give you direction but refrain from getting in your way.

Sometimes parents fall into this category but many times they try to get their children to fulfill their dreams rather than listening to their children. Teach without pushing your ideas. Help without doing everything for your children. Make sure they know Who is in control rather than letting them go their own way. God’s Word says that we’re responsible for teaching our children about Him and His commandments for life so they know what they are supposed to do or not do.

A small comfortable place


You get to build your perfect space for reading and writing. What’s it like?

I would build a twenty by fifteen cottage with a fireplace and a small kitchen.

That’s what I would build if I could.
