Time to Step Out
Is it too late to wish you a Happy New Year? I say no. HAPPY NEW YEAR! At the end of 2021, my family and I tried something together for the first time. We went snowmobiling. I’ll admit it…I was anxious about the whole thing. Being injury prone, getting hurt was the very first thing…
Root Your Resolutions
Did you ever stop and ask yourself why we take this time of year to make resolutions for ourselves? I think it’s because the beginning of a new year serves as a good checkpoint and marker in our journey to start over with a clean slate, as we move out with the old and in…
A Star Signals Hope 🌟
As you pause to read this, the full-on, no holding back, hustle and bustle of Christmas is upon us. Family, friends, eating, parties, presents, car rides, plane trips, cooking, baking, more eating, stockings, endless dishes in the sink, candlelight service at church, kids up at 3:30 AM, “Did we get batteries?”, Christmas wrapping everywhere… all of it….
When Christmas Feels Like a Waiting Game
It seems like there is Christmas cheer everywhere, maybe even more so this year, as so many are finally able to see friends and loved ones. But that may not be your story. You may feel like you are walking through this season with bricks on your feet because everything is just…SO… heavy. May I…
What do you REALLY want for Christmas?
As Christmas approaches, we are all asked an increasingly more difficult question to answer year after year. What do you want for Christmas? This was such an easily answered question when we were kids. I’ll take one of everything, please! When I was younger, Christmas was all about presents for me. Sure…I had a few lines…
SO WHAT ABOUT THAT JESUS
Last year made me do something strange: A character study of Jesus. I write stage plays and musicals. When I embark on a new project, character studies are the first things I do. Who is this character? What’s the character’s motivation?What are the character’s tendencies and quirks? When I figure out who the person is,…
God Is With You in the Midst of Struggles
I have so much fun talking with you. Most afternoons, I share “One Truth” on my radio show as a daily dose of hope and inspiration. Not too long ago, I shared one that said, “Never be afraid or embarrassed to struggle! We’ve all been in a struggle. There is absolutely no shame in working hard…
The One Remaining Question
Very recently, I read about the latest church-celebrity “I’m-not-a-Christian-anymore” social media post when my insightful friend Sherri asked me a question: “Hey, did he ever mention Jesus?” “What?” “Did he mention Jesus in his ‘goodbye’ post? I noticed the last guy didn’t… the celebrity pastor. Did this one mention Jesus?” I skimmed it again. Why…
Cast Your Burdens On Your Father
How do we react when we feel overwhelmed by problems? How do we respond when we feel discouraged or hopeless? The past few weeks were especially tough on my family and yours. We all have the 20th anniversary of 9/11, Tropical Storm Ida, COVID-19, Afghanistan, and countless other things on our minds. This was amplified by seeing…
You Can’t Defeat Your Demons If You’re Enjoying Their Company!
At Star 93.3, we’re on the journey through your day – and through all of life – with you! Each weekday afternoon from 3 to 7, I share small nuggets that I call “one truth”, which are pearls of wisdom that are speaking to me, and I hope they speak to you, too. Here’s “one truth” I shared…
