It costs nothing to be kind to others. We do not know what other people are struggling with. Show kindness to others, even those who don’t deserve it.

Columbine High School…

“I have this theory that if one person goes out of their way to show compassion, it will start a chain reaction of the same. You never know how far a little kindness will go.” – Rachel Joy Scott

Today is the 22nd anniversary of the Columbine High School massacre. Rachel was the first child killed that day. Yet, even with all the darkness of that day, it couldn’t stop light from emerging. Rachel’s Challenge was born, based upon the writings and influence of Rachel Scott. She continues to start chain reactions of kindness and compassion all across the world. Over 30 million people have experienced Rachel’s story. But the work continues…
Rest In Peace, Rachel. Your life mattered…

The Creator of the universe created each of us exactly how He wanted us. That’s good enough for me…

Checking In…

We are almost three months into 2021. If you set resolutions or goals for 2021, how’s it going? I encourage you, do not give up. If you are off-track, do a reset and begin again. And again. And again. It’s hard to beat someone who refuses to give up…

Religion…

Nowadays people say they are “spiritual, not religious.” Religion is simply put, a belief system. Every person on earth is searching for the same thing…to find our greater purpose. The key to success in this endeavor? Develop a relationship with our Creator. He will show you.
