Souly Business is one of those defining moments that God becomes real, and you leave a transformed father, husband, son and Christian. Rita loves it when I attend because she says I come back ‘better’! This is an investment with returns that are ‘out of this world’, literally. If you want to be blessed and become a blessing, prayerfully consider this invitation.

In Christ,

Boyd

 
 Have you ever wondered why it is so difficult to consistently live out  your        Christian faith in your  personal and  professional life?  
Can you imagine what life would be like if you did…          
 

Pause…and listen to God in the beauty of His creation. Disconnect from the things that wear you down…emails, voicemails, deadlines, and the expectations of others. Reconnect with God and other men who desire the same. Discover joy, peace, and encouragement. Imagine an experience so simple, yet so profound and purposeful, that when you re-enter your daily routine, you feel good about life again. Think for a moment about the path you’re on…and what could happen if you don’t take time to examine your life and priorities. Don’t let it be one of life’s traumas to get your attention. Connect with God and others who care about you. The result? Conversations, connections, dreams, reflection, and encouragement. Join us for an extraordinary two days.

You may have seen this before but it’s very funny.

WHY I VOTED DEMOCRAT-  

I voted Democrat because I love the fact that I can now marry  whatever  I want.  I’ve decided to marry my horse.

I voted Democrat because I believe oil companies’ profits of 4% on a gallon of gas are obscene but the government taxing the same gallon of gas at 15% isn’t.
 
I voted Democrat because I believe the government will do a better job of spending the money I earn than I would.
 
I voted Democrat because  freedom of speech  is fine as long as nobody is offended by it.
 
I voted Democrat because when we pull out of  Iraq  I trust that the bad guys will stop what they’re doing because they now think we’re good people.
 
I voted Democrat because I’m way too irresponsible to own a gun, and I know that my local police are all I need to protect me from murderers and thieves.
 
I voted Democrat because I believe that people who  can’t  tell us if it will rain on Friday can  tell us that the polar ice caps will melt away in ten years if I don’t start driving a Prius.
 
I voted Democrat because I’m not concerned about the slaughter of millions of babies so long as we keep all death row inmates alive.
 
I voted Democrat because I believe that business should not be allowed to make profits for themselves.They need to break even and give the rest away to the government for redistribution as IT sees fit.
 
I voted Democrat because I believe liberal judges need to rewrite TheConstitution  every few days to suit some fringe kooks who would  never  get their agendas past the voters.
 
I voted Democrat because my head is so firmly planted up my  #$%#^@ that it is unlikely that I’ll ever have another point of view.

A politician thinks of the next election – a statesman of the next generation. –  James Freeman Clarke
