Last night I looked over my sermon notes. Not the notes I will be sharing this Sunday but the notes I gleaned from the message that was given last Sunday! That's right, I wasn't preaching.

Black Belts And The Belt Of Truth
You need to know this about me . . . I have a black belt.
Impressed? Probably not when you discover that it is just a black leather belt.

Going, Going, Gone . . .
Most of you know that I have a fascination with the American automobile. CarSafari.net is my electronic scrapbook. I record interesting experiences from the open road and "paste" pictures that enable Shannan and me to take a drive down Memory Lane. Many of you have sat in the back seat as it were and enjoyed these travels with us.
