When one door closes… (2009-9-23)

“When one door closes, another opens up!” I got this little message in a fortune cookie after a three hour conversation with our lead pastor. I responded jokingly by saying, “God even speaks through fortune cookies!”

what if’s… (2009-9-14)

“what ifs” is the simple torment of the enemy of our souls…know God’s will and walk in it…
I posted this statement on Facebook and feel that I need to elaborate a bit more on the topic.  Often times, life can be so frustrating and even defeating.  It can be compounded by our own insecurities and [...]

A New Season (2009-9-12)

“1There is an appointed time for everything. And there is a time for every event under heaven–
    2A time to give birth and a time to die;
         A time to plant and a time to uproot what is planted…” Ecclesiastes 3:1-2
During the past few weeks, I have been asked many questions like, “Fel, what are you going to [...]

life’s disappointments… (2009-8-10)

It has been several days since I heard the General Superintendent of the Assemblies of God speak at the opening session of the 53rd General Council in Orlando, Florida.  Dr. Wood spoke on the theme of “Your Life–Your Legacy” and used the life of Leah as his foundation.  I’m sure many of us are not as familiar [...]

unexpected calls… (2009-7-22)

I’m sitting here typing this blog after finishing a conversation with a friend…an unexpected call! Are you of those few (or many) who have a caller id on your phone?

Have you been in a situation when you didn’t know what to do? Do you feel like you’re in limbo?

Kansas City Barbeque (part 3) (2009-7-6)

OK…if you haven’t figured it out yet! Kansas City is definitely barbeque heaven! Others might argue the point with me, but I’ve lived long enough in our community, that there are some incredible pit masters right here in town.

what about the 4th? (2009-7-4)

Some of you have been planning all summer, even longer, for the weekend on the 4th of July.  There is the barbeque, picnic, going to the lake,  fireworks, and family get-to-gethers that you have been waiting to enjoy on this long weekend.  It is a national holiday representing this country’s freedom. 
As I was driving down I-70 [...]

The joke is on you… (2009-7-1)

This past month, there has been a media blitz about Dave Letterman’s joke on his show, The Late Show with David Letterman, regarding his joke about Governor Palin’s daughter.  You can follow this link about his monologue:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zMmKMX44g…
After a media storm, and a full pledge rebuke from Governor Palin, Letterman succumbs to the rising pressure about [...]
