As a strong advocate for healthy marriages and families, I am feeling invigorated and encouraged. There's something in the air -- something refreshing that’s been missing for a while. In the midst of frigid winter blasts, sweet comforting breezes blew through my neighbourhood at noon Eastern on January 20th, 2025. Ever since then, I’m finding… Continue reading Something in the Air
(Something ‘bout a woman) I am Leutenant Günter Weber, with the Grenadiers at Lixouri. I saw your party, and I thought that I would come and introduce myself. Ah, said Carlo, winking, you wanted to come and look at the women. It is no such thing, lied Weber stiffly. Naturally one has seen such things… Continue reading An Attraction Like No Other
Given the profound and far-reaching election news this past week, I was hoping to write a short piece that underlined America's clear repudiation of Wokeism, allowing the family of faith a temporary and needed respite from the incessant attacks these past four years.

But pity the man who falls and has no one to help him up!”Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 I walked the earth for too many years without having close male friends. Sure, I stayed… Continue reading Confidants
I was spoiled by my family yesterday. The five of us (plus our Rough Collie) took a rigorous Father’s Day hike in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, followed by appetisers and beverages at a local brewery. After late afternoon showers and naps, we prepared supper together and kept the day’s celebration going. Heading… Continue reading More Than Neckties
