"31 Days to Healthier Relationships"

Why a series on healthier relationships?  “At the very core of our being, men & women are DIFFERENT!”This is not necessarily a “bad” thing but it requires knowledge and understanding to bridge the gap between the two genders.  And through this “bridge” we can become most effective as individuals and as couples. I believe unhealthy relationships are robbing us of our purpose, prosperity and sense of fulfillment in the family of God. ...

Learning to Love God's Way by Melissa Rich

(In conjunction with “Become What You Desire”)I hate using the preface “as Christians”, because it can be so wrongly placed but "As Christians", the greatest commandment is A. Love the Lord your God with all your heart... andB. Love your neighbor as your "self". This is FOUNDATIONAL to EVERYTHING else in our lives... EVERYTHING. It is confused sometimes since in order to love another, we must first learn what it means to love God and then learn what it means to both be loved by Him and to love ourselves. Love is not a "soft" word by any means....

"Become What You Desire" by Melissa Rich

(In conjunction with, “Learning To Love God’s Way”)Becoming a woman of excellence and value begins with making decisions that “build” your life, rather than tearing it down. We often find ourselves in relationships that are destructive and wonder how we keep ending up there. Somehow, once we have been in the relationship for a while, we can easily see very clearly what the “other” person is doing wrong but it is often difficult to see our “own” dysfunction which led to yet “another” hurtful and disappointing relationship. In this article, I will...

The Top 5 Things a Man Needs in a Wife

Continuing the discussion started in this blog on The Top 5 Things a Woman Needs in a Husband!"The Top 5 Things a Man Needs in a Wife"#1 SEXUAL FULFILLMENT:‎" The typical wife doesn’t understand her husband's need for sex any more than the typical husband understands his wife's need for affection. This need in men is so strong that it must be satisfied -- in or out of the marriage. When a man binds himself in marriage, he makes the assumption that his wife will be available to him sexually. If that is not the case, it it sets the stage for an affair...

How Deeply Did You Look? by Richard "Big Rich" Evans

I'm honored to have this submission from Guest Blogger, Richard "BigRich" Evans!! Here you go!!! This was originally posted on his blog here: BLOG POST! I remember when my daughter was several years younger she would always mention to me that she felt that I was not dating the right type of woman for who she saw me as being. Her comment was that I tended to date big women when in her eyes I was much too attractive for that. I always told her...

Too Many *!@#$^& Friends!!!

Is it time to clean up your "Friends" list? It was for me. I finally got to the point where Facebook was stopping me from "liking" any more pages, accepting any more friends. Basically, I was in social media jail! If you can't even join YOUR OWN new page, you've got too many connections! If were to Unlike my favorite page for any reason, I couldn't add it back. It was time for me to clean house. Maybe it is for you, too? Here's how I approached...

Walking Funny: "Encourage My Brothers" Version

I was out looking at real estate recently. The agent was walking me to look at condos but she had a funny way of walking. As I followed behind her, I found her extremely difficult to follow because she kind of stopped and started and even swung her legs in a way that it looked like she was about to change directions. To say it was frustrating would be an understatement!  I am a naturally fast walker. I almost ran over her at least twice! ...

My Motivation

Here's part of my own motivation. I talk a lot about what I believe to be God's calling and imprint on our lives...mine included. However, let me live up to what I tweeted recently and be even more honest and transparent. I want my children to know me as a man who always did the most he could with what he had. I don't want them to feel like I wasted opportunity or money or life. Further, I want them to see me as a living example - an epistle,...

How am I doing? Honestly?

One of the things that amazes me the most is how people don't allow me to have moods, bad days or even be angry about anything. Nothing! I love social media and engaging people. I don't consider myself a very private person and don't mind sharing what's on my mind. What's funny, however, is how people react (over-react?) whenever I post a Status Update that says anything except "I'm happy, happy, happy, happy, happy!" Come on, folks. I'm kind...
