God, Love, Life, Lessons

Let’s Do This Thing Together!

Legacy is not what we leave behind but what we launch.”

I have been really blessed to have several young men who have asked me to come alongside them in their life journey. We have spent time together sharing stories about our fathers, our siblings, our spouses our significant others, our work, our dreams and our faith. The time with those young men has meant a lot to me and I miss it when I am gone for an extended time. There have also been numerous times when we have parted company after a get together and I flash on something I should have shared. So, I decided to take a stab at doing a blog. Along the way I discovered there were other people, outside of the group I am mentoring, who for various reasons want to read the blog.

Please understand, I am not a trained writer. When I post something I will try to keep it short and to the point. I am also going to try to take it a step further and depending on the subject I will try to scrub it with scripture. The last thing I am is a Bible scholar so it will be a way for all of us to find out what God has to say about anything he leads me to share. That brings up another point – I will write only when God leads me to share something He determines is important. There will be no schedule to this blog. I might put up several posts in a short period of time and there might be times when several weeks or even months go by between posts. I will notify you if there is a new post up on the site.

I hope you enjoy the stories about my journey. Please feel free to share them with others if you think they may be of interest.

  1. Doug,

    I am with you. I call what you do as a stream of consciousness, albeit from God. Thanks for sharing your life. Really appreciated the time we spent together recently. You are a good and Godly man.

    my best to you and Terrie, Ira
