I mentioned a while back we have had a guest teacher for July and he will continue on through August. He is amazing and I could listen to him all day. God has blessed him with the great ability to teach. It feels like ‘one on one’ and his classes have been remarkable. Today I will [...] -
There are so many songs that bring me to tears and the more I try not to cry the more I cry.
I will never comprehend God’s grace but I am ever so thankful for it.
Mending fences…really awesome!

I feel your pain and I’m glad you handled it the way you did. Better to have a cooling off period, gather your thoughts and then have the conversation (as Greg mentioned). Then you can say what’s on your heart and not have to regret what you said. I’m thinking of the song, ‘Angry Words.’ [...]

Summer is flying by, I can’t beleive it’s almost time for school to start!
I could find some chores for those bored young-uns.
Sending that love right back to you

Promises…we’ve likely all made them or been asked to “Promise” at some time in our lives. The promises we make are always conditional. Clean your room, eat your peas, do your laundry, be a good boy or girl. The list is endless, but to receive the reward of the promise the receiver has to perform an action. [...] -
Happy Birthday to Jackson! He is Fwee today and one of our daughters is Fwee with an eight after it today and it doesn’t even seem possible. I know the joy and love of which you speak, I think grandparents are given an extra measure of it. I like the image of angels peeking expectantly [...]

Sometimes things that make us (me) laugh the hardest are the ones bursting with truth. I’m still laughing! I need to find that book. BTW I am sure I have a book addiction. I love, LOVE, books and reading. Larry has finally said he isn’t buying another bookshelf so I need to quit buying books. [...]

I like the good things that came out of T-I-R-E-D.

This morning I sent a congratulatory “High Five” to my friend Greg England for a project labor of love he shared with his readers. After sending him the message I was curious and decided to Google “High Five.” I found much more than I expected and I suppose it really could be filed under useless trivia. That being [...] -

What a great article and what an amazing man to be so focused on finding the problem and dealing with his own health issues at the same time. I would say he had some answered prayers. I have to agree with Mike and Dee, we are the church, rough spots and all. Thanks for sharing [...]

Have you ever worked all day or perhaps all night at your job and feel like you have just been spinning your wheels? Things don’t always go as planned. Do you get frustrated when this happens, does the tension set in, and do you feel like things are out of your control? Well….they really are! Yes, we [...] -

Excellent thoughts/points on your last two posts!
I would be very interested in your LONG article on remarriage and “living in adultery.”

Patrick, I’m late weighing in here, I feel like I’m behind on many things. I too love reading your blog and hope you will carry on. You are always a breath of fresh air and common sense. My husband and I were so thankful to finally meet you in March at the Tulsa Workshop. We [...]

After writing on forgiveness yesterday a friend e-mailed this to me and I thought it to be a good follow up to yesterdays post. Two friends were walking through the desert. During some point of the journey, they had an argument; and one friend slapped the other one in the face. [...] -
jkgarr wrote a new blog post: Forgive or Not to Forgive 1 week, 6 days ago · View
Forgiveness is not as easy as plucking petals from a daisy, “forgive, forgive not, forgive, forgive not.” We must put away our own stubbornness, our own hatred and our pride. Over the years I have had many conversations with close friends as well as casual acquaintances that have been carrying around a lot of bottled up [...] -

I can smell that rat all the way over here in hot humid Oklahoma. So glad you were wearing your “rat armor.”
I’m sure you will get a lot of cheesy advice on rat extermination.
