All of us on Christmas Day.
No telling what I may write about. But, hopefully whatever it is will be beneficial to those reading.
The passions behind this blog
Everyone is passionate about something. Who I am and who I am becoming as a man, a husband, a father, grandfather, retired pastor, leader and Christ-follower all work together to shape my passions.
If I think I've got some wisdom or insight to share, I'll share it. If I have a question to ask, I'll ask it. If something in the news strikes me I may comment on it. I won't shy away from controversy, but neither will I tolerate what we call in the south "ugly" behavior in readers' comments.
If you enjoy it, great! Glad to have you along. If you don't, that's OK, too. Thanks for stopping by.

I don't even "know" them and I feel like dancing!!
How wonderful!
NICE!
Congratulations on this joyous homecoming!
Wonderful news! I have been praying for this day for some time now. So happy for you all.
Last year my son had an unexpected four month stay in a hospital 1,000 miles away from home. The day we finally made it back home was the happiest of my life! I can only imagine what this drive will be like for Tricia and Nate.
GOD IS GOOD!!!!!!!!!!
Sending prayers and well wishes from Ohio
As if we need yet more proof that we serve a good God. He gives us more anyway!
Thank you, Daddy, for your many blessings!
Woo hoo!
What a great banner to welcome them home! Bet you just can't wipe the PermaGrin off your face these days! Savor the sound of a tiny baby crying in your home at 2:00AM tomorrow morning! What a gorgeous melody! Almost as sweet as the praises reaching Heaven from around the world today! So thrilled for all of you.
HA!! I keep looking at the clock!!
w00t! I can't imagine how excited you and your wife are right now :-)
Yay! So glad they are headed home. Love the sign.
unlike apple, i don't just feel like dancing, i am! on a sprained ankle and all! rejoice!
Thinking of you all right now and the joy you must be experiencing.
Praising God right now for everything...
julia
Amen Amen Amen!!
I'm crying and I don't even know any of your personally. What a truly joyous occassion!
beautiful!
Yahoo! What a neat banner!
Glad for their homecoming and that you, grandparents, can snuggle more with lil Gwyneth! ;-)
Marissa :-)
We'd like to come visit your church when we come for our annual vacation. I know that I've driven by it but just in case I'm wrong, at which milepost are you located? I can see the church in my mind but not the milepost marker:)
We love our church so much that we haven't tried others while vacationing in years past. We just couldn't imagine liking any other church. After following Nathan's blog and now finding yours through his, I'm excited to bring my family to meet your church family in a few weeks!
Thanks so much and congratulations on your son's homecoming!
Oh, and what time are your services?
What a wonderful way to welcome them home. It is obvious that they are loved and cared for!
We are so happy for all of you Rick! Praise the Lord.
Rick,
Has anyone thought about submitting Nate, Trisha and Gwyneth's story to Extreme Home Makeover? They would probably get chosen and have a house built that would meet Trisha's special needs! Just a thought.
Scott
@ Kateri - We're immediately south of Jockey's Ridge State Park, almost milepost 13.
@ Scott - many times over the last 6 months.
Thanks, Rick! That's what I thought. Our house is directly across the highway from the Jockey's Ridge entrance.
See you in a few weeks!
Kateri
