One of my favorite aspects of working at the Pearland Church of Christ is that there are always good things happening. This past weekend we had a wonderful congregation wide cookout with about 80 in attendance; this coming weekend Debbie Brown is hosting an ice cream...

It happened again. Today, while driving in traffic, an angry motorist who had been following me veered radically into the lane to my right and passed me while burning half a tank of expensive fuel. He was young and I must admit, a very talented driver. He was able to...
