    Whose Shoes Are You Wearing?

    Shoes come in so many different varieties such as:   flips flops, high heels, loafers, sandals, wedges, flats, walking, running, etc.  What’s in your closet?  When my daughter got married, she literally had 100 pairs of shoes that had to be packed.  There are not 100 in my closet, but there are probably too many.  We…

    Women Need to Study Theology

    When the word theology is mentioned, we tend to picture the large books on the desk of the Pastor.  By doing this we have made the word mean much more than it does.  The truth is that, simply put, theology is the study of God.    Because of this there are fears we give into when…

    Food Issues It is so surprising to me how food can become so important to us.  I certainly understand the great taste of a piece of cheesecake or a piece of chocolate.  I guess what I don’t understand is the way we make decisions about the food area of our lives. Then we think everyone…
