1,000 Year Flood

After our historic flood, I wanted to make sure our children understood what it meant to help others, even persons we didn’t know.  Through our child’s school teacher, she reached out to us stating she knew a couple who had just been displaced from their home via helicopter and a day later gave birth to…

Blessing Nurse

A family member was recently in Palmetto Richland hospital.  There were times of uncertainty and worry.  At those intense times of concern, God miraculously presented us with a nurse, who after helping us understand more clearly the diagnosis, would say, “God blesses you and I hope you continue to have a blessed day.”  Wow, with…

The Discipleship Oak

I see God’s work every time I leave the church parking lot. The oak tree by the entry way spreads its branches in the shape of the cross, reminding me where I’ve been and where I’m headed. That tree has been there for 125 or 150 years and it has been part of our Living…

Faith Formation

Football Meal Ministry

Be Still and Know

God spoke to me on a Wednesday in my home. I had not been feeling well since the prior Monday and I couldn’t really explain what was going on inside my body. I just knew that I didn’t fell well. And in the moment right before I was about to call 911 for an ambulance,…

Neighbors

I met my neighbor by way of the Holy Spirit. We began to speak to one another as we passed each other a few times a week. As time went by, I noticed he was grocery shopping alone, walking from the store, pulling a cart behind. The Spirit showed me that I might be able…
