January: What You Might Become “Be ready to give up what you are for what you might become.”

February: History and the Light of Faith In the roots of our faith history matters too, we are people of the Book

March: My Life at Labor Temp When I graduated from high school, there weren’t too many jobs to choose from. Unemployment was high.

April: What Is The Log In My Eye? We have a tendency to gravitate toward what’s wrong with the other guy or gal.

May: Humility Not Smugness Humility, we know, plays a key role in Christian life, but trying to understand it is tricky.

June: Leadership, Like Walking a Cat Liz could tell a sagging wall to straighten up, and it would snap to it. She commands respect.

July: Multitasking Today we’ve carried multitasking to a new level.

August: A Culture of Losing, a Culture of Hope Our behavior gets shaped by those with whom we associate.

September: How important is clear communication? There’s nothing that robs a heart-felt sentiment like wrapping it in a cliché.

October: Stress and Prayer I’ve prayed about the stressors in my life. What I’ve learned is that I’m really not good at turning my burdens over to Christ in prayer.

November: Online Relationship or Community Can online communities form real meaningful relationships?

December: The Power of Stories Stories trigger memories, make us laugh, make us cry, stir our anger, and cause us to pause.
