“When was the last time Jesus asked you to wash someone’s feet?” “Almost everyday!”, I thought, as the question came from the pulpit.

It’s super hot outside. Oh wait, I didn’t really need to say that, did I? Everyone knows it. One of my favorite meals during these hot, hot, hot summer days is a smoothie! I’m always looking for new recipes for them, too. Of course that doesn’t mean I actually make anything other than my own […]
