CGM Goes Warrior!

Dad, you’re the key

When Christian Grandfather Magazine hosts one of my posts on their online magazine, I consider it a great honor.

And this post is particularly close to my heart: it’s all about the powerful role that men have in their family.

You can access the post “Warrior Dad” here.

Also, if you haven’t checked it out yet, take a look at other CGM content. It’s all free and it makes a great daily devotional.

Love you,
Pastor Bill

Thank you Veterans!

we are grateful

The LORD is my strength and shield.
I trust him with all my heart.
He helps me, and my heart is filled with joy.
I burst out in songs of thanksgiving.

CGM: It’s The Little Things

His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a little; I will set you over much. Enter into the joy of your master.’ —Matthew 25:21


Frustrated that plans aren’t moving forward? Hoping for a big break through?

Don’t give up.

Whatever you’re doing, it’s important to continue to make progress—even if it seems “little.”

And a BIG Thank you to CGM for hosting another post from my blog and continuing to do “The little things”—every day.

A Double-Header

a double-shot of encouragement

“The Son of Man came to seek and save those who are lost.” —Luke 19:10

Is it possible to have too much of a good thing? Apparently not—at least when it comes to Your Daily Encouragement on Christian Grandfather Magazine! This is the second post they’ve featured this week from Your Daily Encouragement.

Thank you CGM!

So grateful that these posts are seeing double-duty to help this generation encourage the next—from our children, to our children’s children. What a privilege we have. This is legacy stuff.

Here is today’s post on Christian Grandfather Magazine.

Love you,

Pastor Bill
