July 26, 2022: Dear Grandchildren, This month, we have a special letter from your cousin, Sabrina. She’s sharing her 7-7-7 Story! I hope you get blessed as much as your grandmother and I have. Sabrina: Growing up in church and looking back on my life, I could see where God was faithful. When I actively pursued Him, He was always […]
June 26, 2022, Dear Grandchildren: I’ve been talking to Devin and Ryley concerning their wedding in July. I asked them, “Is love a feeling or a decision?” How would you answer this question? It was June 1967—still early in the so-called “summer of love,” when the Beatles unveiled their new song, “All You Need Is […]
May 26, 2022 Dear Grandchildren: Working with Devin and Ryley on their wedding ceremony is reminding me of all my pre-marital counseling sessions. My goal is to prepare couples for life after their wedding and honeymoon. In the Bible, Paul addressed marriage in this way: “But those who marry will face many troubles in this […]
April 26, 2022 Dear Grandchildren, Today, I want to talk about being great. What does greatness really mean in a human being? Webster’s Dictionary defines Greatness as: The state or quality of being great. That definition really didn’t help me much, so here’s my thinking of being great. To be great isn’t something you decide to achieve but happens as […]
March 26, 2022 Dear Grandchildren, I’ve been meeting with Devin and Ryley for their July 9th wedding, so I’m inspired to write about powerful families. All families have weaknesses and strengths. We often focus on our problems and not enough on our strengths. In fact, most people are unaware of their family’s strengths. Think about […]
February 26, 2022 Dear Grandchildren, Traveling to Third World countries has taught me many things about myself and about the world. Can you imagine going to Nigeria and explaining how inconvenient my life is at times? How I don’t have cell service, how my lawn is too dry because the sprinkler system isn’t working appropriately, or when the automatic […]
This month is a very important with two very special birthdays. January 10th is number 101 for my mother, Elsa Jean Polasek Freeman, who I’ll be writing about in this letter. Also, it’s the 78th birthday for my wife, lover, and best friend, Sandra Kay Catt Freeman. Congratulations to both amazing ladies. This letter is about […]
This month, I’d like to share why over the last 245 years, how the free market, private property, and democratic capitalism have always been what makes America great. They are part of the freedoms and individual liberties that the Founding Fathers sought to protect when they wrote our Bill of Rights. Because of these freedoms, Americans created some of […]
November 26, 2021 Dear Grandchildren: Some of you have asked me the question, “When did you know you were a Christian?” The answer is fifty years ago when I was twenty-eight years old. Until then, I sincerely thought I was. I was baptized at ten because that’s what my church expected you to do. And for twenty-eight […]
September 26, 2021 Dear Grandchildren: I’ve started this month’s letter twice and it hasn’t felt right. So yesterday, I prayed for help. At 3:40 a.m., I got my help from the Holy Spirit. What? Grandpa, you actually believe that the Creator of the Universe would personally wake you up and give you revelation about writing your monthly newsletter? Yes […]
