A Visit to North Central University

Today was a strange day for my wife and me. We took our eldest, Mark, to North Central to check out the school. He is a senior this year and is in the middle of one of the biggest decisions he has ever made.

As I sat in chapel today, I encountered a moment of shock. 22 years ago I graduated from North Central. Never did I think back then that my wife and I would be sitting in chapel, with one of our kids, on the verge of becoming a college student.

The other crazy thought is that in 22 years from now I will be at the age of retirement. If these years go as fast as the last 22, I have no time to waste. I have so many things to still accomplish.

Pray earnestly, dream big, work hard, have faith, do it all for God's glory!

Go Twins!


Me and GM Ron Gardenhire



No matter how the Twin's do tomorrow they sure have inspired me and others to never quit! I love the fact that the Twin's always play 110%. If Jesus was physically walking this earth now like He was 2,000 years ago, I'm convinced He would use them in one of His parables.

When it seems like your down and out and there is no way, keep believing. Tomorrow I am preaching about this very topic. We will be talking about Abraham and Sarah, having their first child after it was physically impossible. Remember, with God nothing is impossible. Expect a miracle today.


Me and Mn Twin's great, Tony Oliva
