Rantings of a Jesus-loving, raving lunatic

Why don’t teenagers share their faith more often?

( Rants )

This is a question that has plagued me from the time I was a teenager (a long time ago in a far away galaxy). Of course there are the obvious reasons of fear, peer pressure and not knowing what to say. But, after dealing with tens of thousands of teenagers across the nation at our […]

Writing Retreat Starts

( Rants )

Today my writing retreat strarts. After I drop off my two little lovely happy hyper kids I take the hour and a half drive to Breckenridge, find the in-town Starbucks (surprise, surprise) and start typing away.
I have several things I need to pound out on my keyboard and two book ideas I’m working on. One […]

War Heroes

( Rants )

My dad was a war hero.
He fought in the Korean War, was taken captive and was the very last POW released from the Korean War…three years after the war was over.
I’m glad my dad was a war hero. It kind of makes me proud of him even though I’ve never met him. Its nice to know that, […]

The “You mean to tell me…” People

( Rants )

You can always tell when someone is preaching the true message of grace because that’s when the "You mean to tell me…" people show up and begin their mantra:

"You mean to tell me that my aunt Suzie, who is the nicest person I’ve ever met is going to die and go to hell just because […]

Fundraising…I LOVE IT!!!

( Rants )

My passion for fundraising seems weird to a lot of ministry people. But I absolutely love it! I love casting the vision of Dare 2 Share and engaging people with the strategy and asking them to invest their time, talent and treasure in the cause.
This year I get the privilege of seeking to help raise over […]

Writing Retreats, Mental Illness and Prayer

( Rants )

I’m going crazy.
I spent all day yesterday co-writing our brand new drama "Credo" with Paul Leavitt. It was a good, frustrating, productive and powerful day that I believe, by God’s grace, will provide another blockbuster Friday night drama for the Dare 2 Share tour next year.
Today I have to get to write a 4,000 word chapter for a […]

Goodbye Dr. Falwell

( Rants )

Dr. Jerry Falwell died today.
The news hit me like a ton of bricks. It truly stunned me. He seemed like the rock of Gibralter, a mountainous man with mountainous vision who accomplished much of his God-given vision during his 73 years on planet earth.
I can’t say that I saw eye-to-eye with him on everything. My view has […]

Field Day…WOWS!

( Rants )

Wow!
My kid had a blast during Field Day! He (and every other Kindergartner) won bunches of ribbons…one first place ribbon, three seconds, two thirds and a fourth. He looked like a virtual rainbow of victory with each of the ribbons pinned to his bright red shirt.
Kudos to Faith Christian Academy for setting Field Day up […]

Field Day Woes

( Home Sweet Home )

Today is Field Day for my six year old. Last night he told me that he wasn’t going to win anything. As he did he started crying and it broke my heart. Jeremy is convinced that he is the slowest kid in class.
I tried to reassure him that it was going to be okay. I gave him […]

A Different Kind of Mother’s Day

( Rants )

Today feels different. Usually on Mother’s Day I am struck hard with the loss of my mom three years ago to cancer. Now, don’t get me wrong. I thought of mom right away today. And I miss her greatly. But I know she is doing well. As a matter of fact she is doing better than […]
