October 2023 Update

October 23, 2023

Fall has finally found us here in Wisconsin. The mornings are frosty, and the boys wear coats on the way to school. The leaves are showing their colors before they drop, and our trick knees and elbows are reminding us that yet another year has passed and winter is on the way. Over the years, […]

A broken arm, a mangled tongue, and a leaky basement.

December 10, 2021

That was just September! It HAS been a year for the books. Would NOT have minded if some of it stayed in them, though. Thank God that we know the end of this Story! Can you imagine the turmoil if you didn’t know that God’s Word said that God is a good God (Luke […]

So, it’s June. 2021. Already.

June 17, 2021

Anyone else feel like while 2020 went very slowly, 2021 has been trying to do double time to make up for it? I know that March was just 3 months ago, and maybe it seems like this BECAUSE WE’RE in the, “Hurry up and wait mode.” But it just seems like I’ve had so much […]

The 4/22/21 Urologic Oncologist Update…

April 22, 2021

This update ranks up near the top, as far as my Top 10 LEAST favorite ones to send… And yet I will preface this with, it’s also yet another time that God’s graciousness and mercy has been shown to us. So, there’s always that side of tribulation in this world to look forward to! My […]

Medical News Update -4/19/21

April 19, 2021

The story continues to unfold, but it would appear that the 2cm cyst in my right kidney has continued to grow. I’ll tell you more about that later. But first some good news. Tamara had a great bit of news from her retinal specialist! She has been seeing a specialist for a while to take […]

March 2021 Update

March 25, 2021

In many ways, 2020 was a weird blessing that we’re incredibly grateful for and still trying to recover from. Over the last few months, not only have I been challenged to dig into the Word of God, but I have had the opportunity to do so with an old friend. In the process, it seems […]

Happy New Year! Happy Spring! Is it Summer, yet?!

January 29, 2021

Last night was the first “cold” night of the winter already and already summer seems like it is lurking around the corner. Please quietly disregard the fact that there is still snow on the ground and it’s below freezing… I don’t really ever remember thinking that, before. You see, I’m the guy that would be […]

How much more can God stand?!

October 27, 2020

My pastor dropped some heavy truth on Sunday. I thought maybe those of you that read my meanderings would appreciate some thoughts from the words spoken. We’ve been in 1st John for a while now, going methodically through the verses. It has been VERY good, and as a Historical Literal Grammatical student of the Word […]

This is the day that the Lord has made…

October 1, 2020

Happy October! Some of you have asked, and I appreciate it, what the results were from the last visit were with the oncologist. “Great!” In a nutshell, there is nothing new to report. All the things that weren’t supposed to be there, aren’t, and the things that were supposed to stay the same did! That’s […]

A couple of months for the books…

July 24, 2020

Well, we have officially kicked off the much needed ministry partner development time! We’ve been looking forward to this time when we can dedicate our energies toward connecting with new partners and reconnecting with long time partners. I know that we are not alone feeling that things are not normal, in America. “Quarantines” and “protests,” […]
