Getting off the Treadmill!
It is really amazing how quickly our focus can change. Last week at this time I was eagerly looking forward to watching March Madness, the NCAA basketball tournament. My favorite team, the Kansas Jayhawks were seeded very high in the tournament and I was looking forward to several weekends of watching them inch closer to
Read MoreThe Illusion of Free Shipping
One of the ways that advertisers tempt consumers involves the idea that something is FREE. A classic example is Amazon Prime. If you pay a flat rate, you can receive merchandise offered by Prime without having to pay for shipping. Read over that last sentence and think about how crazy it is and yet it

One of the great musical anthems from my early childhood is the song, “Respect”, performed by Aretha Franklin. This carefully crafted song shouts its message in distinctive ways that as soon as you hear the opening notes being played, you know exactly what the song is! One novel detail in this song is the way
Read MoreCould Revival Come to Fulton?
I suppose most of you have become aware of the happenings over the past 2 weeks in Wilmore, KY. This community of around 6,500 people has become the center of the universe as people gather to share in what is being described as a revival or awakening. I have monitored the phenomenon from afar and

I still can’t stop thinking about the most profound thing that happened while Camille and I were visiting grandchildren in Texas.

Before we could order our food we were shocked to discover a familiar

I grew up in a home where it was made very clear to me that when I went to school I should give it my all and if I did the result would be good grades. My parents believed that I if I applied myself, I should be able to master all the material presented
Read MoreMoving Away From Small Talk
One of the blessings as well as curses of being an extrovert is the ability to engage in small talk. To be clear, what I am referring is the ability to keep talking about a variety of subjects to avoid the extroverts nightmare: silent interactions. Typical subjects for small talk include the weather, sports, health,
