That… Which Matters Most

  • Calling an Audible

    Sunday morning, I got a call from my elder, Seth, at about 8:30 a.m. Apparently, the bank where we have are Sunday morning worship was being audited by the IRS, so the room that they graciously let us use for worship was not available. I immediately volunteered our living room.… Listen ⇢

  • The Hope of a Slow Growing Burr Oak

    When we moved into our home, almost 2 years ago, it became obvious that the previous owners had one love in life: watching NFL football. We gathered this because there were televisions mounted to the walls in the living room, every bedroom, and there were three in the den. They… Listen ⇢

  • The Ascension According to John, Part 2

  • Pericope!

    It’s been a while since we’ve had a cat update. Turns out that Pericope is obviously the more photogenic. She is always climbing in or on something. Her sister, Synecdoche, is the more timid cat. In fact, we call her Lard Butt since she is bigger, and rarely tries to… Listen ⇢

    Joey is working toward getting his driver’s license, so while he was here, we would go out driving, to give him more lessons and experience.

  • Graduation: Timothy Andrew Hammons, Wills Point High School 2024

    I can’t express how proud I am of my oldest son Andrew and his recent graduation from Wills Point High School. He not only graduated with honors, but also as a member of the National Honor Society. I’m not sure if those always go together. It seemed like there were… Listen ⇢

  • Scotch, Cigars, and Good Fellowship

    There is just something about a good Scotch, along with a good cigar, and great fellowship. This is one of the things I love about Reformed Christians. We have the freedom to enjoy good drinks along with good cigars. For years, I knew this was true about many in Reformed… Listen ⇢

  • The Ascension According to Luke

    Why did Jesus ascend? Why did He have to go away? Would it not have been better, had He sat up an earthly throne so we could go and visit Him every few years? Isn’t that what we want, a King and Savior we can see, we can speak too,… Listen ⇢
