A Story of Loss, Legacy, and Perspective I never thought I’d find myself sitting in a truck, staring at a small black box and a single sheet of paper, questioning the meaning of life. But here we are. Now, before you start worrying, no, I haven’t fallen into some existential crisis. This isn’t a mid-life…

Introduction Ever catch yourself wondering if your faith is more of a checklist than a genuine journey? That’s what hit me when I read Matthew 7:21-23: “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.…
