A Letter to My Future Adult Children

Well, here we are, kids. I can still call you "kids", right? Then again should I even have to ask that question? Really, I mean, if I changed your diapers when you were babies, then aren't I deserving? Now that I think of it, lets be fair, you're adults and presumably married in the future,...

Till We Have Love

This is my complaint: Every beautiful strength has a hideous weakness. My brother, Mufasa, is truly a trendsetter of that adage. Don’t get me wrong, I love my brother. I have always wanted the best for him. However, the kingdom of the Pride Lands was turning into a nation bound for doom due to his weak... Continue Reading →

The Young Boy And His Fear of Dogs

  Young Todd could barely catch his breath as the neighbor’s dog attempted to chase him down. He hid behind the playground wall that was just high enough to cover his entire body.

Nevertheless, through all the chemotherapy he was blessed to... Continue Reading →

The Old vs The Young: The Battle of the Ages

“Haha, silly old man,” were the mental words I muttered as I watched the elderly gentleman performing awfully-sluggish lunges in front of me.  “Silly old man, what are you doing in the gym? You can barely move as it is. What has your life come? Simple drudgery. Your wrinkled old skin and fragile bones... What... Continue Reading →

God Saves All of us Crazy & Odd People

I have some Asian friends that are a part of this very large Asian group of believers. They gather together in various homes every day of the week. They pray drastically different than how I have learned to pray. They do hospitality well and treat me as one of their own. And they love Jesus... Continue Reading →

A Letter to My Future Wife of 50 Years

First things first, let’s get this awkwardness out of the way. Sure, you’re roughly around 75 years old, which means that you are approximately 50 years older than I currently am. Yes, you are from the future and I, conversely, am sitting here in the abstract year of 2013. But regardless, I’m your husband still.... Continue Reading →
