Part 12 ...Continuing. Moss ducked his head beneath the doorway as Denny pulled him into the shack. It was a one-room shed, with warped wallboards and a dirt floor. One table leg didn't reach the floor and the two chairs were spindly affairs that didn't look like they would hold Moss's weight. The cabin was basic, but clean and welcoming. In the center of the table stood a tin tomato can full of wildflowers. "Sis!" Denny called. "I brought a friend." Denny's sister turned from the stove and Moss...

One of the most exciting adventures God has led us to embark on is establishing the Victory Baptist Church here in Dayton. Almost one year ago we held our first service at 166 E Main Street, formerly the Chamber of Commerce building. The hand of the Lord has been evident as the Lord has provided all we needed to get a good start. One of my favorite historical Bible characters is found in the Book of Joshua chapters 14 and 15. Caleb and Joshua were the only spies (of 12 sent) who came back with...

–Part 11 Continuing...Deveney's red-haired thug spun and snarled at Moss. "You got a death wish boy?" He dropped his hand to the big pistol on his hip. Moss grabbed for his gun as well. A metallic sound pinged through the air and he flinched as a bullet whistled past him to thud into the wall. He stepped sideways to get out of the cloud of gunsmoke around him and saw the red-haired man on his knees, cradling his arm.

“Childhood is a short season.” – Helen Hayes... Full story
It's sometimes difficult to get up and start the day. A small town experienced 39 degrees below zero temperatures and, in the morning, only one car in the whole town was operating. None of the other cars would start. The only one running was started before the extreme freeze (and was kept running) by a very wise person who knew how to prepare. Starting our day off takes preparation. Jesus started his day off rising early in the morning and finding a solitary place where He could commune with...
-Part 10 ...continuing. Moss stood behind the mostly-closed door of the livery, watching through the narrow gap as a dozen men rode into town at a lope. The man in the lead was a large man with dark facial hair. His horse was two hands taller than the other outlaws' horses, and it threw its head as they rode up to the saloon. "That's Deveney," the kid whispered in Moss's ear. "My sis says he's the worst outlaw since the Plummer Gang." Moss raised his eyebrows. "Just what is your name, kid?"...

The boys were happy when their mother wrapped Christmas gifts because it not only meant presents to come, but also the joy of playing sword fights with the empty cardboard wrapping tube. They played swords in a harmless fashion that gave them joy, though the flimsy cardboard tube easily gave way and was quickly destroyed. God's Word is a sword that will never be destroyed. Neither does it give way. It always accomplishes the purpose for which God sends it. It is a victorious and effective Word....
