Men’s Group

Posted on by

Recently, I had just finished a men’s Bible study group. We completed a Bible study guide for Tony Dungy’s book, Quiet Strength. I had finished the book around the time my son had his Scoliosis surgery. The book was excellent. I found the study to be very helpful. One of the most important aspects of the study was that we met together as a group of men and could share our common interests and concerns.

Writing Your Own Personal History

I think that everyone should write their own personal history at some point in their lives. You may put it off saying that you haven’t reached an age where you are ready to begin to decide what decisions were the most important in your life. Or you might struggle with what events you should include. I suggest that every ten or so years you take the time to write, rewrite or add to your own personal history. I have written my own personal history, and it is a very rewarding experience. It was surprising to me the way the events … Continue reading →
