The Apostles Creed by Albert Mohler: a Book Review
The Apostles’ Creed is one of the oldest Christian creeds that dates back to the 4th century. In this post I give a brief overview of the Creed, and review Dr. Albert Mohler’s book, “The Apostles’ Creed: Discovering Authentic Christianity in and Age of Counterfeits.” I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven […]
Walt Disney – Master Visionary
Last week I posted the Jim Korkis quote below about Walt Disney’s ability of great vision. I thought I would dive a little deeper with a blog post.

When Patriotism Becomes and Idol
On the Fourth of July we celebrate the birth of the United States of America. Many families will spend the day at the lake or beach grilling hot dogs and hamburgers. We are far from perfect and there are dark spots on our past and even our present but I still believe we are one […]
