Stac’s Place

We finished our sound check a little early Sunday morning, so I grabbed my bible and journal and headed out to grab some fresh air under a tree outside the school where we meet.  On my way to my spot, I noticed a flash of white falling from above, but I didn’t see anything.  As [...]

Today was a bit unusual.  I had a couple of unplanned conversations, and God met me in both of them.  Words were spoken in encouragement, and I felt God’s presence.  I have been praying for wisdom and courage for months.  There are a number of places that I am seeking God’s direction.  While I don’t [...]

I have to admit, I didn’t see it coming.  Kim and the kids start watching American Idol every spring break.  Kim picked Kris from the start.  By the time the finals rolled around, my whole family was rooting for Kris to win, but I seriously thought Adam was the favorite.  He got all the props [...]

With the release of Angels and Demons, the History/Discovery Channel has been re-running a lot of its older programming based on Dan Brown’s work The DaVinci Code, and along with that comes their work on Leondardo DaVinci.  It’s been fascinating to watch, and I must confess that I have enjoyed learning about Rome, the Master-atisans [...]

Today was a banner day at the Sublett ranch. Change was in the air, and it got all over everybody.
*We now have two kids with braces on their faces teeth.  No, we didn’t adopt two local children in need of orthodontia; Levi and Lilly joined the cult of corrective mouthware (mouthwear?).  Thanks to Doc [...]

I love the thrill of kayaking, but this is a whole nother level…
