I call it negative inspiration. You know how you meet someone or read a story about someone amazing who has triumphed in life despite incredible tragedy. Yeah, this isn’t it. Negative inspiration is like your mom telling you to eat your broccoli because there’s starving children in Africa. Except negative inspiration is better because it’s real. I mean no disrespect to the children of Africa, starving or otherwise, but something happening to a friend or family member or neighb...

The ministry is a marathon. You cannot complete the race if the enemy destroys you before you get to the finish line. In some of my earlier work, I shared part of the pain of entering the ministry and dealing with some of the people who attend church. You are not exempt from the pain of dealing with people who act carnal, selfish, greedy, or mean. Do not sink to their level. Keep your eyes on Jesus and maintain a clean heart when pastoring. Moses is a good example of one who prayed for people who were behaving badly. Pray...
Do good You know, Lord, a friend shared a little-known story of a man named Louis W. Beck. As the story goes, on the night before Christmas many years ago, it is reported that Beck was lost in the desert.

The next day, he was rescued by a traveler and subsequently, he kept his promise. On that Christmas Day, he asked himself what he might do for God and his fellowman. He was not seekin...
Mark 10:46-52 Out our way, round up is an exciting time and usually folks from all over come and help out. Charlie and I rode round up one fall for “Big Mike.” Mike had a number of folks out on the quads to drive in the herd, and he hired a number of Hutterites to stand in the corral and help load the critters into the trucks. Charlie and I rode the arroyos and hawthorn bushes looking for the strays the mechanized cowboys missed. We brought in about 50 head, including a few calves that had gotten lost and were bawling for...

Back in early December, the Montana State University-Northern Skylights started Frontier Conference play with two tough road games.

And, with a trip to nationally ranked Carroll College on the back half of the trip, Thursday night's game against No. 13 UGF was of the utmost importance. And the No. 11 Skylights played it that way as they downed the rival Argos 61-47 at the McLaughlin Center...

The matchup, which features two of the most consistent programs in the state, w...
