Easter is such a wonderful time!  The reminder of how Christ is Risen and all that He did and does for us every moment of our lives… It’s immeasurable!  I can get caught up though at home and at work with how commercialized it has all become. Easter egg hunts….

I go into the office at least once or twice a week.  We have a nice small suite in a three story office building just outside of Nashville in a popular “office building area” with a bunch of other folks who are in the same office building.  There are a ton…

We just got back from another great Thanksgiving get together/trip in Gatlinburg TN with my wife’s extended family. It’s always such a great time!  Getting everyone together and watching all the different generations of family members hang out and reminisce about old times (and new times) is always such a…
