Scott Skelton's Story Gaining Traction

I'm so amazed at Scott's gift of a new kidney, the sacrifice Keith made - and the story that is emerging. You can read it here:

Transplanted to Live

My good friend and Christian brother - Scott Skelton - received the true gift of life through his recent kidney transplant surgery. Everything went without a hitch.

Great story:

The most interesting aspect of the story is that his donor - Keith Langston of Longview - was an opposing attorney in many arduous cases over the past several years. Keith and Scott developed a professional friendship through adversarial, but respectful positions.

The whole thing has been incredibly emotional for me and my family - just hard to believe.

Spiritual Journeys

I admit it I'm judgmental. Very much judgmental towards those that never seem to embark on any significant spiritual journey. Somewhat judgmental on those that seem to never think to much on the spiritual plane. They just give you that quizzical look when you mention anything with spiritual under-tones.

I confess.

I guess the reality is that no spiritual journey is, in itself, a spiritual journey.
