November 15, 2025 D.L. Moody (1837-1899) served God’s kingdom as a pastor and leader with his life and his wisdom.

November 8, 2025 At 4:30 this morning, Coffee and I rolled out of our beds to be greeted with a fresh coat of snow and 30 mph wind out of the north-west. It sure didn’t take the ‘ol pup long to get finished outside, and I’m not looking forward to going out there either. As…
