2:15 – I Made Myself Angry #faithbites #faithjourney Angry This #faithbite is going to the pot calling the kettle black or an example where I should practice what I preach, but here goes nothing. The past couple of days I have been angry. I receive bad news from someone and I get mad. Someone doesn’t do something that I thought […]
2:3 – Be a Becky #faithbites #faithjourney Becky Today a church friend of mine passed away. It was unexpected and I hope that everyone keeps her and her family in their prayers. To quote one of our Pastors “I’m grateful death doesn’t have the final word!”. I couldn’t agree more. But today’s faithbite isn’t about death, it’s about life. We […]
360 – I resolve to…. #faithbites #faithjourney resolve Christmas is over and now I’m looking forward to 2019. While this is not the end of the year post, this is the first on resolutions. While I may look like someone who has it all together, just kidding, I’m as broken and messed up as the rest of us. One of […]
358 – Hark the Grandpa Harold Sing or What is Impact? #faithbites #faithjourney harold Tonight during our Christmas Eve service, I was helping the young ones get ready for the live nativity scene.

324 – Vaccinated by Christ #faithbites #faithjourney Vaccinated Before we get started, I’m going to ask for a little leeway here. I’m going to use an imperfect metaphor, but I think it works. So bear with me 🙂 And now, onto faithbites. Yesterday my youngest got her flu vaccine. Today, I had my oldest vaccinated against the flu. They were […]
319 – Responsibility for Your Actions – Good and Bad #faithbites #faithjourney responsibility About two to three inches of pearly white snow covered central Illinois this morning. It is beautiful unless you have to travel, shovel, or go anywhere. A perfect day to stay home, sit by the fire, drink hot chocolate, and rest. But alas, this was not in the […]
314 – Let It Go For Peace #faithbites #faithjourney peace I don’t know about you, but I tend to be an easy going guy. I try to love people and help where I can.

309 – The Biblical View on Voting #faithbites #faithjourney Voting Tomorrow is Election Day in the United States. It’s a chance for us to vote for our next set of leaders. Many are disillusioned with the voting process, our government, and how the country is going. Many think if you don’t vote, the country is going to die. Some think […]
305 – Looking in the Mirror #faithbites #faithjourney Mirror When you look at the mirror, what do you see? Normally you see your reflection. If you are like me, most of the times, my reflection doesn’t seem to match who I really am. The funny thing though, is looking at my kids seems to give me a reflection from when […]
