Enjoying Life Now, Not Later
Enjoying life is inseparably linked to the life and plan of our Creator.
Living Every Day
Don’t wait until you reach some magical age to start enjoying life—start now! Don’t take a single day for granted.
Preparing to Live
Are you someone who’s waiting for “some day” to accomplish your goals? It’s time to stop preparing and start living! As long as God gives us breath there is a life we need to realize here on earth. And we need to live it.
In Place of Drifting, Pursue!
Be bullish in your pursuit of life. Pursue the things you can change. Give your attention to the things that can be altered. And don’t do it for money!

Retirement Isn't the End
Retirement is a time to try something new, like mentoring. Investing time in a younger person can be a rewarding experience. No matter your age, taking every opportunity that comes your way and using it wisely is a great way to live.
Finding Happiness
Have you ever wondered what our purpose is on earth? Ecclesiastes 11 says it’s to love God and enjoy Him forever—not just to serve or obey, but to find happiness.
Great Days of Youth
As we instruct our children on how to live, let’s be sure they have a lot of fun when it’s the years for having fun. Let’s also be sure to keep them from disillusionment.
