Manager’s Memo 10-30-2015

Water was dripping from the top door into my master bedroom, a feature most bedrooms don’t have, with good reason. This past week, we found the small thing done in the dark that soaked a wall of my master bedroom, ruined a door, some carpet and sheetrock and left a two square foot hole in the ceiling of the hall leading to the bedroom. Apparently, when this room was remodeled, long before my wife ... Read More

Wanda and I are headed to Idaho this weekend to be part of the 25th anniversary celebration gala for the radio station we helped build in Boise in 1990. It will be good to be back among friends two decades in the making, wandering around some of our favorite spots, marveling at the changes five short years have wrought. And to celebrate what twenty-five years of sharing God’s goodness means to a g ... Read More

More than 500 listeners contributing more than $125,000! Thank you so much f ... Read More

Scripture tells me I will see her again and I believe that to be true. Thank you again for your prayers, your messages of encouragement and expressions of concern for my family and me. It is a wonderful thing to be surrounded by people who love y ... Read More

I love this time of year. New beginnings are in the air. Kids head back to school with new backpacks full of fresh pink erasers and pencils with no teeth marks in them. Our campus is awash in proud seniors who are now hesitant freshman, with a tinge of nervousness in their eyes, unsure of where they belong or what they should be doing. And at 56, I’ll have to admit to a little nervousness and hesi ... Read More

Manager’s Memo 08-05-2015

In a few days, Wanda and I will celebrate 33 years of marriage. We’ll probably go all out to celebrate with a trip to the Perot Nature Museum and Taco Bell on the way home. I’ll be the first to testify thirty-three years of married life is nothing short of a miracle from God. Five step-dads and abuse as a child doesn’t prepare you well for long-term relationships. Yet Wanda saw in me something wor ... Read More
