Hello, my “Walking with Jesus” friends, Today America, and perhaps much of the world, awakens to the aftermath of yesterday’s ‘midterm election frenzy’, which has gripped much of America for the past month. I doubt anyone could calculate the outrageous financial spending which has taken place all across America, over the past several weeks, for […]
Good morning my “Walking with Jesus” friends, How do you respond when your children or grandchildren, or someone you care about very much, makes wrong decisions or even chooses a life path that is contrary to what you know is right or God honoring?

Hello, my ‘Walking with Jesus’ friends on this first Monday of November. Without question you and I will MANY times this week be faced with information or images calling us to make choices, sometimes difficult moral and ethical choices…. right or wrong; helpful or hurtful; holy or wicked.

Good morning my “Walking with Jesus” friends, What is the most significant accountability moment you have ever experienced? We’ve probably all had times when we’ve been called to give account of our actions, right? Was that a terrifying experience for you?
