Sometimes I am just plain GROUCHY.
It is NOT PRETTY, but it is TRUE and REAL.
Yes, I know. I don’t really have ANYTHING to be grouchy about. All my fundamental needs are being met. I have a wonderful job, a loving family, and this fantastic group of friends. I belong to an incredible church. And I [...] [...more]

Brad Lomenick and his team have certainly figured out how to produce a WOW event.

You calm my raging seas
You walk with me through fire

Here are just a couple of [...] [...more]
