A Love Story: Fairy Tales Do Come True - Part 1 of 3
Once upon a time, many years ago, there lived a young man who knelt to the ground every morning and prayed to the Lord for his bride-to-be.

Unglued
Over 10 years ago, Lysa TerKeurst  and I bumped into each other in a food line at a CBA Convention. We sat down, ate our sandwiches together, and have been friends ever since.

The Powerful Funeral

I just attended a 4 hour funeral in Romania this morning.  Well, it felt like it—it was a live webcast.  My dear friend Calin’s dad, Theo Ciuciui died unexpectly three days ago from a heart attack.

My Preacher Man

My Preacher Man
Someone was knocking loudly at my front door. I opened it and a man that I had never seen before stood staring at me. Solemnly he said, “Is the preacher man home?” I smiled and confidently said, “I’m sorry, no preacher lives here.” He insisted that one did live here. Then he gave me the story.
