Raised in the south, I have a passionate love for the Lord, my wife of 43 years, my three daughters, my two grandsons, the empty nest, preaching the Word of God, pastoring people, discipleship, the University of Kentucky Wildcats (basketball) and Clemson Tigers (football), running the country roads and the Tweetsie Trail, and hiking these awesome TN/NC mountains!! For 24 years, I had the privilege of serving the Lord at Boones Creek Bible Church, Johnson City, Tennessee, as lead pastor. We are still part of the BCBC ministry team, but now greatly involved in D & D Ministry, This is a ministry to refresh and strengthen pastors and their wives, marriages and family through itinerant ministry and personal counseling. This blog covers the things I love about life and ministry which are one in the same.

Thank you so much for taking the time to blog. This has been such an encouragement. We love and miss you and your family, but we will see you soon.
What is your name and where are you pastor? You might want to tell us some basics on the about page.
Thanks for the input. This is a work in progress. Keep on keeping on!
Like your page – after Christmas blahs -Seven Ways to Live the Day after Christmas. I was having a boring day – maybe letdown and googled and found your article and traced to this page. I am sharing on my FB Thots’ and Meditations. Wish you were on Facebook. Shalom and have a blessed New Year ! https://www.facebook.com/ThotsAndMeditations…
