No Two Journeys Are The Same

November 29, 2016 by Craig Johnson Leave a Comment

A grace culture will never exist when we are unwilling to go the extra mile to extend grace without judgment. When someone is not like us, it is so hard to get past the differences and find the grace and love that needs to be conveyed to bring hope and healing. Today, because of the human condition, we continue to struggle with racial barriers, socioeconomic class wars, and stigmas based on our … [Read more...]

If It Ain’t Broke Don’t Fix It

June 15, 2016 by Craig Johnson Leave a Comment

There are two vases in our home at each side of our front door. One of the vases fell and the top was broken off and now it has a crack in it. Instead of throwing it away we put it back together. It's a little more fragile than the other vase but it's still beautiful. Can you tell which one is broken? You have to get up close to see the imperfection because though the vase is cracked it still … [Read more...]

Every time we see that wall, he wants to … [Read more...]

Masterpiece

April 18, 2014 by Craig Johnson 1 Comment

Every December, like most children in America, I looked forward to Christmas. I loved everything about the season: setting up the tree, decorating the house, dropping hints about gifts I wanted and, of course, watching the Christmas specials on television. Back then no one owned them on DVD, so we had to check the TV Guide to make sure not to miss the classics like Miracle on Thirty-Fourth Street, … [Read more...]
