I like to read biographies written for children. They give me a quick overview about famous people. The latest one I read is about Johann Gutenberg. He changed the world with the movable type, the father of modern printing. He gave the masses access to books. Did you know that Gutenberg is not his real […]

I want to remember this for myself in my Bible devotional reading. Matthew 17:1-13 Don’t be so quick to do things for God. The first response is to listen to God. Enjoy the glory and majesty of Jesus.
I, along with a few from my church, went to a family conference at Calvary Chapel Chino Hills a couple of weeks ago. I learned a lot plus got this free book! The book is not theological and it’s not theoretical. It’s meant to be very practical by laying out some very specifics things parents […]
I remember reading Joni’s life story when I was in high school. She was an inspiration to me to be more committed in pursuing God. I saw Joni & Ken live in person last year when she spoke at Mandarin Baptist Church. She was amazing and continues to inspire. After reading the new book about […]
Writing is a discipline, and I haven’t had any recently. I have things I want to blog about but it takes effort to get words down into a coherent form. So as with anything, just take a step and put one foot in front of the other. Here’s my one step: My head is beginning […]
I like to read biographies of famous people from the children section of the library. The easy reading highlights interesting facts about well-known people that are not so well-known to me. At dinner one day, while my family was talking about games to play in the swimming pool, we asked the question, “Why is that […]

You’ll never be a perfect parent, but you can be a praying parent. Prayer turns ordinary parents into prophets […]
Whenever we go to the library, I look for a mystery book. I picked up Mistletoe and Mayhem because the setting is the 1800s in the UK. The cover drew my attention; it says, “Never Before Published!” Aren’t most books never before published? Is it a good thing to be never before published? The book […]
July 7, 2013 Saturday – Las Vegas & Home We’ve come full circle and our last stop is back to Las Vegas in time for a late lunch. Foodnetwork took us to The Egg & I featured on Rachael Ray. I had the pesto with eggs. Muffins were delicious! 4.5 stars. Across the street we […]
July 6, 2013 Saturday – Zion National Park Walked along a couple of hiking trails while our more fit friends did Angel’s Landing. I’m content to enjoy the beautiful sceneries with a nice stroll and a relaxing lunch at the Zion Lodge Red Rock Grill. We ended our Zion visit with the 6:30pm tour on bus […]
