Description

I was born in southwest Indiana but I got to Texas just as fast as I could. I came to Texas in 1963 with my parents after spending almost two years in Europe and 9 years in southern Indiana. My father passed away in M.D. Anderson hospital just eight days after President Kennedy was assignated and this has been home ever since. I spent six years (5 years, 11 months, 21 days, and a few odd hours, but who kept track?) in the US Navy during the Viet-Nam war ear from 1970-1976. And in 1989 I took a job back up in Indiana that lasted until 1994 when we returned "home" The most important decision in my life was to trust Jesus as my Lord and Saviour and I have been a Christian since 1982. I had grown up in the Roman Catholic Church but I had never trusted in Jesus. Neither myself or any other Christian always acts as Jesus would want us to and that old bumper sticker that says "Christians aren't perfect … just … forgiven" is more true than you can imagine. Regardless of what anyone else tells you Christianity is not a religion but is truely a … relationship with Jesus. My family and I are active at Fairmont Park Church in La Porte, TX where we live. While at Fairmont Park we are "Baptist" in theology that is we follow the "Baptist Faith & Message. We are Christian first and do not necessarily consider ourselves "Baptists" in the classic sense. We are a member of the SBTC . We have a modern (aka Contemporary / Seeker Sensitive / Purpose Driven) worship service with a full band. Most of our bible study class's (Sunday School) are done off campus during the week in homes, we call them small groups. One thing I most highly respect about our pastor is that he tells visitors if they are not comfortable with our worship style or organizational structure then please find a fellowship where they can worship and serve. I am a fan of Contemporary Christian Music and my favorite Christian music radio station is KSBJ , But I mostly enjoy listening to talk radio, and in the Houston area my favorite AM talk station is KSEV AM 700 . I enjoy Sam Malone (local host), Laura Ingraham, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and Dan Patrick (another local & TX State Senator). When I'm traveling and can't get Laura I listen to Glen Beck. Not all are carried by KSEV so I have to bounce around a little. One of the great things about talk radio is that you get to hear things that you will not hear from the pulpit and network news casts which helps, me at least, constantly re-evaluate my core convictions and what I believe. Make no doubt about it I am a veteran, a conservative and politicially active. I strongly believe that the gospel demands that we be involved in our politics whether federal, state, county or local levels. I believe in the strong rugged individualism that made this country great and am deeply saddened by the number of people who think they are owed something . I also believe that scripture also requires us to have personal involvement in our community. Whether that is volunteering at the library, homeowners association, or taking countless trips chaperoning high school students all over the country. It could be serving on the school board, city council and so on.
