All is Quiet at 104 Chatham St.!

As the daily display of beauty, otherwise known as, Fall in Mississippi intensifies, I was reminded of an earlier blog post and thought it might be good to give an update.  Maybe you will remember me writing about the challenges Camille and I were facing in trying to bring the landscape at the parsonage into… Read More »

Lessons from a Humble Preparer of Food

November 5, 2020 By TonyThornton 1 Comment

One dimension of my life that might surprise those who are reading this is my love of cooking.  I think this comes from my mom.  In addition to being an excellent cook, she was willing to let me come into the kitchen and “help her cook”.  I know now that my efforts were hardly helpful… Read More »

Speechless….almost!

October 29, 2020 By TonyThornton 1 Comment

The month of October is slowly coming to a conclusion and with it comes the completion of Minister Appreciation Month.  I had been duly warned that Camille and I should get ready for an outpouring of “appreciation” the likes of which we had never seen before.  With the month nearly gone, I can report that… Read More »

Trying to Write a Blog and An Unexpected Gift

October 22, 2020 By TonyThornton Leave a Comment

It’s Thursday!  Blog day!  Have you ever noticed how easy it is to start a new habit or discipline but how difficult it is to keep doing it?  I remember when we were revamping the Church website and one of the new features was the ability to include a blog.  I thought that would be… Read More »

Serendipity

October 15, 2020 By TonyThornton 1 Comment

I love the word serendipity.  What a funny sounding, weird word!  Even more, I love the serendipitous moments of life.  I am talking about the moments in life where when you least expected it, a grace or benefit comes your way.  I have experienced serendipity in a variety of settings.  I seen it happen in… Read More »

Risky, but Worth It!!!

October 8, 2020 By TonyThornton 1 Comment

I noticed over the past few days that I was experiencing some rather unexplained feelings.  I have been feeling a bit anxious and moody.  Usually I am pretty good at “diagnosing” my inner feelings, bring them to the surface and take the appropriate steps to resolve the feeling of unease.  This skill that I just… Read More »

Square Pegs and Round Holes

October 1, 2020 By TonyThornton 2 Comments

I have never attended a Tupperware party.  However, I was really impressed with their little toy that was designed to teach very small children how to match shaped objects with corresponding slots with the additional bonus of reinforcing hand/eye coordination.  You know…putting round pegs in round holes, etc. I remember how impressed my son was… Read More »

Searching…

September 24, 2020 By TonyThornton 2 Comments

I am not completely sure when it happened.  Actually it has been a rather slow process that really intensified this past March when I turned 60.  I know that age is “just a number” but good grief, I can’t believe that number is now mine!  I am a bit surprised at my state of mind… Read More »

Learning to Appreciate the SHOCKS of Life!

September 17, 2020 By TonyThornton 2 Comments

One of the things that Camille and I are looking forward to this year is seeing the hopefully stark contrast of winter in Mississippi vs. winter in Kansas.  We have tried to get a sense of what it will be like, you know, how cold will it get?  How much, if any snow will we… Read More »

Happy 6 Month Anniversary!

September 3, 2020 By TonyThornton 2 Comments

It hardly seems possible but exactly 6 months ago today, Camille and I moved to Fulton.  We could have never in our wildest dreams predicted the past 6 months!  Who could?  In spite of it all, we have settled in and are enjoying our new life in Mississippi.  God has confirmed in many ways that… Read More »
