“If you ever really want to do a story about who I am, God’s got to be at the center of it. Every time I hear a piece or read a story that doesn’t have that, they’re missing the whole lesson of who I am.” - Kurt Warner Ever since I saw him playing for the Rams Kurt Warner has been my favorite player in football.

Read MoreThe Catch-all post
It has been a while since I have posted an update and much has happened so a catch-all post seemed in order.

Read MoreBlessings of a Bloodless Change of Power
Another day gone and a new president in the White House. Despite all of the people out there praising or criticizing our new president he is in office and no one died to get him there. This is one of the most amazing things to me about the way our system of government works.

Read MoreResolution
It’s a new year and it seems that every one is resolving to do this or that. I have already spoken of how I feel about new years resolutions but there is one that I want to make this year.
