We had no television at our ranch because my father thought its absence would encourage his kids to read. I’m extremely grateful to him. I remain an avid reader of history, and discovered Theodore Roosevelt during my childhood years. “Theodore Rex” may have been the most complex and remarkable American who ever lived. Despite severely poor eyesight, he won the Medal of Honor leading a hell-for-leather charge. He also received the Nobel Peace Prize for his skill as a negotiator and peacemaker. He was the first president to dr...
As you take stock of the past year and look forward to the new one along with the renewed hope for the future that it brings, I urge you to consider the traits you wish to develop in the future — traits that will help you become a better human. I have already begun this process by compiling a list of the top three animal traits I would like to have to make me not just a better human, but a super human. Play along with your own list if you wish. I warn you, though, to c...

You know, Lord, being a shepherd way back when You were born is undoubtedly a bit changed now then it was long-ago. When we were little kids (usually on a Sunday morning as we headed to church), we might meet a team of horses pulling a sheep wagon (where the sheepherder lived) followed by a large band of sheep, the sheep dog(s) nipping their heels to keep them moving along, and usually several men walking behind, shaking branches or tin ‘dogs’ to keep the flock moving. The sheep dogs, the guards, were raised with and liv...
On Christmas, we celebrated the good news that the Light shines in the darkness and the darkness did not overcome it. In his earthly ministry, Jesus calls us to be the salt of the earth and the light of the world. This is the embodiment of the Christmas story. There are profound implications to being named salt and light. It means that we are to flavor the world. We are to season and transform human activity in such a way that it reveals God in this world. It means we are to help people better see God’s life in theirs. It m...
Out our way, the impossible is sometimes possible and what cannot happen sometimes does. I remember that day with Charlie on the Tiger Ridge when the cattle were so rangey that they would not bond into a herd. It was late fall and our task was to drive Big Mike's cattle down from the summer pasture where the grass was overgrazed and the reservoir early dry; to the good pasture and water that awaits them in the winter pasture below. Unfortunately, cattle are not overly bright...
