It’s that time of year where we re-orient ourselves, think about the past year and consider new things we want to accomplish for the year that is coming up.  So along those lines, here is one thing I’d like us all to consider:  How can we be a better Christian in the…

I write about doing this every year now it seems.  And every year it gets a little harder and harder to do. Saying “Merry Christmas” to all those folks that we come in contact with at this time of year. Are you afraid to say it to you co-workers because you don’t want…

We’ve all done it at some point or another. I found myself doing it again last week. Jumping on the perennial “Bandwagon”. I was headed to lunch in the car with a couple of co-workers.  The conversation started to go in the direction of talking about the poor performance and…

I know I write a lot about what we say and how we say it, and that people all around us are watching us to see if it all matches up with God’s directives. Maybe it’s because it has been on my mind as of late. Maybe it’s because I…

That’s all it takes. Just one kind word from us can make the difference in someone’s day at the office. I was having a not so good day recently (probably because we had gone out of town recently and I was still trying to recover from the loss of sleep…

I work at a place in which we openly pray before meetings, pray for our work to be successful, and regularly pray for each other and our needs. Yet I have worked at places that this was nowhere near the case. Something simple I put into practice ever since I…
