As the long, hot days of summer close out, and a slight crispness enters the air, our minds turn to FALL (AUTUMN). The leaves of the trees turn bright oranges, reds, and yellows, there is a slight hint of woodsmoke in the air, and freshly brewed pumpkin spice lattes are back on the menu. God … Continue reading Back to school…🍁🍎
A light in the darkness
"Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path." -- Psalm 119:105 Above is pictured my insanely-bright headlamp on my motorcycle. This is on low-beam, and you can see its potential to light up the night. You cannot even see me, but I am in fact sitting on the bike. … Continue reading A light in the darkness
Finding Joy in the Rain
This is a close-up of one of my trees this morning. While water is life-giving, it doesn't do much for those of us that want to be on two wheels, dry, and care-free. As a matter of fact, in the past I have allowed it to cause me great despair. I have never liked being … Continue reading Finding Joy in the Rain
Why take the risk?
People often ask me why I risk my life motorcycling. It is indeed a much more dangerous form of travel than cars, boats, and especially airplanes. There are far safer hobbies to be had. I've had my own brother question my relative sanity in making such a choice. Sadly, he's probably not entirely wrong, but … Continue reading Why take the risk?
Staying Alert
Much like on the roads I ride on, the road of life can lull you into a sense of being a passive participant. What do I mean by that? Sometimes that road can distract you. Things on the side of the road can grab your attention away from where you are headed. Even your thoughts … Continue reading Staying Alert
“Control”
This thing called control... we all like to think we have it. It's really honestly nothing but an illusion. There's only one being in the universe that truly controls anything, and that is our Father in Heaven. Still, we are people, and we are goofy enough to convince ourselves that we are controlling every aspect … Continue reading “Control”
1,000 miles of smiles!
Every time I hit a major mileage milestone, I stop immediately at the next available area, give thanks to God, and celebrate all the opportunity to be out and about in his creation. I snap a picture, as I have on bikes prior to this one. So blessed to have had the first 1,000 miles … Continue reading 1,000 miles of smiles!
Episode 003: Slow, Look, Press, Roll
At long last (thank you for your patience!), I've made it through a multitude of technical difficulties to bring you this latest installment of MotoMinistry. Like motorcycling, it takes discipline to make it safely through the twists and turns of life. Focusing on God's Word, as Joshua 1:8 teaches us, has its benefits. The more … Continue reading Episode 003: Slow, Look, Press, Roll
“Gearing up” for another video soon…
Apologies for the lack of a video for the last couple of weeks. I've had some technical difficulties, primarily with microphones inside my helmet. I also got a new, safer helmet, and had to deal with camera angles and such on the new lid. I've literally done four takes of the same message, and since … Continue reading “Gearing up” for another video soon…
