Photo by sergio souza on Pexels.com I think it is safe to say that, though many of us experience this anecdotally, it's a general trend to hear someone say that "less people are going to church than they used to." This is true. It's well-documented that most Christian denominations in the United States are shrinking … Continue reading Denominations are dying… should you even care?

Taking Christ out of Christmas: Is it really “them” or is it you?
Photo by Jameel Hassan on Pexels.com Christmas is many things to many people. It could be the most wonderful time of the year.

[Myth #2] As long as God is on the schedule, I am good to go.
Photo by Bich Tran on Pexels.com In case you were unaware, I am engaged to be married. Who is the girl? Sydney Kate Grubb is the girl. And she is absolutely wonderful.
