Courageous Chickens: Merry Christmas Dal

This year for Christmas, my little brother received from us a letter about courageous giving… and chickens…

Dear Dal—

Merry Christmas! This year’s gift to you is a little different than normal. We wanted to go a different direction since God has really been doing a work on our hearts over the last several months. I know we all enjoy getting “stuff,” but we have chosen to give something that won’t collect dust or break. [Read more…]

Freedom’s banquet: Mama and Daddy

Today, I would like to share with you our gift to my beloved parents in Kansas… It been an amazing journey for my family, especially as my Dad came to Christ in a Cow Pasture then was also physically healed in The Rest of the Story. (If you read these back stories, this gift will make much more sense.)

A Giving Heart: Christ-mas, Christ-More

It’s 5:45 am… I throw back the covers and my eyes pop open. It’s go time.

I swing my feet over the side of the bed. Oh, that floor is cold! I creep out of bed, down the hall, and take a deep breath. The moment of truth…

There, in the gentle glow of Christmas lights are piles of presents. Santa showed up and he did not disappoint. I grab the nearest gift with my name on it and violently shake it. Nothing. Dang. It’s probably clothes. Socks. Maybe even underwear. Sigh. [Read more…]

Our car was loaded down, ready to depart early the next morning. Our refrigerator was completely bare so we could reduce the possibility of growing penicillin in it while we were running amuck. Thus, we went out for a quick supper and on our way home, I decided I wanted to peruse through the neighborhood and check out the Christmas lights. [Read more…]

Year in Review: Crazy Awesome

Hi there again readers… Today, I am going to share with you the Christmas letter (And picture) that we shared with our friends and family.

Note: If you are one of our friends and/or family members and did not receive a hard copy in the mail, my apologies… but when one is working for “God Dollars” as opposed to world dollars, postage gets expensive… FAST 🙂 [Read more…]
