• Saul To Paul: The Wonder of it All

  

  Wonder by Hillsong United Have you ever seen the wonder in the glimmer of first sight As the eyes begin to open and the blindness meets the light? If you have so say – I see the world in light, I see the world in wonder, I see the world in life, bursting in living…

• The Vow of ‘Onah

  

  Often as I follow leads God puts before me, I find a “Pearl of Great Price.” I found this pearl referenced in chapter nine in the book, “Unwanted: How Sexual Brokenness Reveals Our Way to Healing” by Jay Stringer. Dr. Jay makes some dramatic points about true intimacy, what it is, what it’s not and…

• The “Journey”

  

  If you’ve read “Our Story“ then you have some idea where my Journey began and when it turned to hope and freedom.  Because of space limitations Our Story is severely edited.  If you spend much time in my blog posts then you’ll begin to piece together the details of our Journey.  I, Greg, write almost…

• Intimacy

  

  I state on our home page that this is Lynn’s and my blog.  I believe that despite the fact that I do the writing and she probably never will.  She is, however, inextricably entwined in everything I write.  The words are mine but the reality of it all is ours. Until now. I’m still writing…

• Wait on God

  

  Taken from YouVersion.com devotional by A. W. Tozer from his book “The Pursuit of God.”  I was in awe and simply had to share this.  Pastor Tozer lived 1897 – 1963.  I think the devotional speaks for itself.  Enjoy. It is important that we get still to wait on God.  And it is best that…

• The Broken-hearted

  

  In Lynn’s and my marriage, I am not the one who was betrayed.  I am not the one who was crushed and shattered.  I am not the one that deals with emotional “noise” that is a constant background to her day.  No, I am the betrayer.  I am the one who crushed and shattered my …

• Joy

  

  I honestly don’t know where this post is going.  I sit here with tears running down my cheeks as I grieve for Coraline, a beautiful Granddaughter I’ll never hold again, a daughter whose heart is broken, a broken-hearted man I hardly know, my darling wife and my entire family.  And my heart says write about…

• Tears

  

  I like that God directs my writing.  Since I’ve committed to a blog-a-week I pay closer attention to what’s going on around me, how it affects the people around me, what He’s doing every day and then I write.  God touches whomever He sees fit – even if it is only me.  Sometimes, an idea…

• Pornography and Adultery

  

  As I sit and try to decide exactly where to start with my blogs I want to spend several of the first ones to lay out some basics of where I’m coming from and the foundation of a lot of my positions. I believe society has crept into the church, into our Spirituality and allowed…
