Welcome to May! So much has been happening around Morganville, let's jump right to it! Phil's mom is home from the hospital and rehab and making slow and steady progress. For those of you just tuning in, back in March a neighborhood dog knocked her down in the street. No broken bones but she was pretty banged up. She had to get home and healed up in time for her first great-grandbaby... Which brings us to our oldest daughter and son-in-law who are expecting their first child late this month. According to the way things are progressing, she may not make it until the due date, so we could be grandparents anytime! Our youngest daughter was back from Chicago for her sister's baby shower and will make another return trip after the baby is born. She is excited to move to New York with her company sometime later this year and mark another item off her bucket list! Phil has been down with bronchitis again. His ribs are pretty sore from all the coughing, but he has been able to make all our singing engagements. On that front... We are excited to be back at the Riverview Conference Center in Cedar Falls, IA on the 20th of the month. For several years we were part of a Gospel music festival they put on each summer. We made so many life-long friends of both the attendees and the other musicians at the festival. It will certainly be fun to return and catch up. There's probably more to tell, but that's enough for today. We are thrilled to still be out singing and telling people about Jesus. Hopefully we'll be coming to your area this year and we can connect in person! Blessings, Click Here to Check our Concert Schedule!

It's Personal by Phil This Sunday we celebrate the apex of the Christian year - Resurrection Sunday, also known as Easter! Most of the year we strive to remember that "it's not about me." We are not the center of our universe, God is, and everything revolves around Him. The message of this season is the exact opposite - "it's all about me." God's love for us is so great, even if you or I were the only person in need, Jesus would have still died on that cross. The crucifixion is the ultimate...
The Distance Between Blessed and Blessing by Phil A popular phrase over the past several years is "Pay it forward." According to Google's AI overview, "Pay it forward" means to repay a kindness you receive by doing a good deed for someone else, rather than paying back the original person, creating a chain reaction of generosity. Instead of returning a favor directly, you pass on the goodwill to a new person, often a stranger, with the hope that they will do the same for someone else. In our...
Authentically Irish? by Phil Happy St. Patrick's Day! Last year we celebrated by taking a closer (and somewhat disturbing) look at St. Patrick himself, who wasn't Irish or even a saint. (Yes, he is recognized as the patron saint of Ireland, but was never formally canonized by a pope, because he lived before the modern, official canonization process was established. Oh, the things you learn in these devotions!) As I said, we already covered that ground, so this year I thought we'd investigate...
