4:44 – Silence Is Golden #faithbites #faithjourney silence Setting Last night, my eldest had a sleep over with a friend. This morning, my wife said it was so quiet because she wasn’t here. I said I knew she was gone because it was so silent. Please don’t get me wrong, I love my family, it is just sometimes all I […]
3:349 – Rejoice In Your Talents #faithbites #faithjourney rejoice Setting Lately, I have been spending a lot of time learning 3D printing. I have had more failures than successes but am really enjoying it. In the past couple of days, I’ve had people tell me how great my stuff is and they want to commission me to make something for […]
3:279 – Support – We All Need It #faithbites #faithjourney support #RoadToEdD Setting You are probably tired of me talking about my dissertation. I know I’m tired of talking about it. During the past few days, I have been posting my progress on Facebook as this is my final push towards the degree. My goal is by Friday to have […]
3:266 – Pray For Those Who Can Not See #faithbites #faithjourney see Setting Unless you’ve been living under a rock, which sometimes I wish I was, you have seen how divided we are. If you don’t believe what someone believes 100%, you are evil. If you vote a different way, you are in league with the devil. We all have […]

Maybe you were taking a shower and a thought or prayer came to you? Maybe you were about to make a decision or take action and you got butterflies or a pit in your stomach. Have you […]
3:251 – Bearing False Witness #faithbites #faithjourney false Setting I was debating politics with someone, and they brought up how can we as Christian men, bear false witness. It is a concept I was only marginally familiar with, so I figured we could all learn together. We throw around so many terms and ideas, it’s important to understand what they […]
3:220 – Prayers For Our Educators #faithbites #faithjourney educators Setting It’s almost that time again: Back to School. Instead of the normal back to school supply shopping, reminiscing on the end of summer, and excitement about the fall, we have lots of fear, anxiety and trepidation about returning to school. COVID-19 has rocked our world and the Education system didn’t […]
3:157 – Showing Respect #faithbites #faithjourney respect What does it mean to respect someone or something? How do you show respect? Today, I was in a debate about protesting by kneeling during the national anthem. This post isn’t about that, but rather the concept of what does it mean to show respect. Is it different for different people? When we […]
3:149 – Quiet, Please! #faithbites #faithjourney please Quarantine life has hit a new high or low. My tank is empty. I need a break. Just some quiet. It’s not that anyone is being bad or doing wrong things, just on eggshells right now. I went out to sit on the deck, and my youngest followed me for a snack. I […]
3:146 – Choose To Say Nothing #faithbites #faithjourney nothing I like to talk and share my opinion. The hardest thing can be to day nothing. I was in a situation where many people were sharing ideas that I disagreed with and was less than factual. I could have corrected them, I could have pulled out facts but that would have […]
