Valuing Faith, Family & Freedom in Central Virginia



I’ve been reading through a document that was presented to me a week ago on “The Covenant and The Law“, and I’ve been scouring my Bible for truths concerning several points being made in it. There were three points that were mentioned that the author seemed to think were “givens”: the Priesthood, Sacrificial Rituals & [...]

Over the past few days I have spent gobs of hours poring over Romans, with notepad, pen & highlighter in hand, and I found it very fascinating. It took having to take notes to get through some of the language, but boy, was it worth it. I’m a visual person, I guess. I like charts [...]

Earlier this year I started a Beth Moore Bible Study covering the Psalms of Ascent. She talked about how we were going to go on a pilgrimage in this study, and in one of the first lessons, she asked us to describe in one word how we were feeling at the onset and write it [...]

I grew up in a Christian home, having attended church most of my life. I went to a Christian University and was even a “wing chaplain” for two years. That was almost 20 years ago. I have read/studied the Bible off and on my whole adult life. In all this time I had the idea [...]

A few years ago I started writing quite a bit about my take on the political scene. This past year I’ve taken a bit of a back seat to that topic. In fact I’ve been laying low, not saying much of anything. Not here, anyway. I started throwing some of my ideas around concerning the [...]
