Let’s reach the world for Christ- but somebody has to pay the bill

Posted by Bryce Raley on July 30, 2008 with 0 Comments

I was convicted recently, when listening to Peter J Daniels speak about missions, ministry and the growth of Christ’s church. He said something that struck me- square upside the head. I’ve often thought of the verse that says “the workers are few but the harvest is many” and I’ve only thought about it in terms [...]

Tiger and an asterisk at the British Open- Wait a minute!

Posted by Bryce Raley on July 30, 2008 with 0 Comments

I heard grumblings before the British open about the champion having an asterisk next to their name. I like many of the characteristics of Tiger Woods. His drive, determination, confidence, persistence, tenacity to mention a few. There are other characteristics I don’t like so much. This is neither here nor there- he is the best [...]

You think Dave Ramsey was tough on debt and spending. Check this guy out.
I stumbled on Don Harrold a few weeks back while reading an political blog I frequent. Don was ranting about Jim Kramer, CNBC, the federal reserve, our government, main street/wall street and consumer iresponsibilty. As I’ve watched his videos for the last [...]

Our Artificial Economy

Posted by Bryce Raley on July 30, 2008 with 0 Comments

I’m not an economist. I am not a savvy Wall Street Investor. I don’t watch CNBC or follow Jim Kramer. I am a common sense guy who thinks we are operating in a totally artificial economy. Mark Twain was quoted as saying “The thing about common sense is, it ain’t too common these days. ”
In [...]

Energy Debate

Posted by Bryce Raley on July 27, 2008 with 0 Comments

Let’s drill offshore and in Alaska.
Let’s work our butts off to find other sources of energy in the meantime.
Let’s be real. China and the Middle East are not concerned with environmental policy and they’re not exactly the poster children for human rights. Let’s compromise a little on our environmental policy- get our country back on [...]

Kenny Perry’s criticism continues

Posted by Bryce Raley on July 27, 2008 with 0 Comments

Can we leave my man Kenny Perry alone? I have been blogging about Kenny Perry and his magnificent obsession to make the Ryder Cup team all spring and summer.
Since winning the Memorial, he’s won twice more. I am so tired of hearing his critics come down on him for skipping the US Open and British [...]

How I fared in our club championship?

Posted by Bryce Raley on July 27, 2008 with 1 Comments

For those who haven’t played Midland Trail before, it’s a rather long course about 7000 yards from the black tees and the course is tough because of the greens are slower than most. The greens have lots of humps and ridges and the fairways are narrow and angled. It hard to shoot a high score [...]

What are some creative ways to get more volunteers for Southeast Christian Churches nursery?
If you’re having trouble getting your children checked in each week, then do what we did a year ago- step up and volunteer yourself. Yes it is very trying with 3 children under 3. Every other week we really struggle to make [...]

We recently received a letter from the clinical operations department with Anthem insurance. We have 3 children under 3 so we get lots of letters from the health insurance company. We recently started getting Chiropractic care (see blog post) so we have been getting our fair share of statements and correspondence. Amidst all the normal [...]

Tiger vesus Rocco US Open

Video of Rocco Mediate’s Interview after losing to Tiger.
I saw the interview on Don Harrolds video blog. It was one of the better clips of the interview with Rocco.
It’s says a lot about not quitting- giving your all- and being in the moment.
Tiger had to be scared- maybe for the first time on a golf [...]

Chiropractic Care- Try it!

Posted by Bryce Raley on July 27, 2008 with 0 Comments

I tried Chiropractic a few years back with a good friend of mine from church and he really fixed up my lower back. After 6-7 visits I was really feeling great and I became a believer.
I went a few years without care or adjustments- it’s funny how we quit doing things that work. I started [...]

Another year and another great golf scramble. Everything went off without a hitch this year.
We had around 92 players, 32 hole sponsors, about 20 food & prize sponsors, and a lot of fun.
We raised somewhere around $4000 for the Middletown Lions Club- which in turn means we raised around $4000 for the various charities, causes [...]

Authentic Christians are fun to bump into

Posted by Bryce Raley on July 27, 2008 with 0 Comments

Sometimes when I bump into a real authentic Christian- it reminds me of where I once was on my Christian walk and where I want to return. When you see someone who has Christ at the center of their life it sure does convict the spirit within me. When I’m walking around complaining and full [...]
