--> Litter bugs me! I just can’t get my head around it. What possesses people to just throw their trash on the ground? This time of year seems to be the worst and Tim’s cups seem to be the greatest offenders. But that might just be my perception, after all, their spring cups are red…
Your Legacy, Your Choice
So here we are, April. For those who have been a part of the Cornerstone family for more than a year then you know what April means. For those of you who have been with us for less than a year you might think that April is simply the month that falls between March and…
Holy Day or Holiday?
I have often thought the concept of Easter Monday was kind of strange. You just know it had to be a blatant quest for a four-day weekend. That someone, somewhere, had a eureka moment and decided that the Monday following Easter Sunday was obviously Easter Monday and as such deserved to be a holiday. And…
Making a Messiah, Easter Sunday
Jesus was guilty! That’s right on that Good Friday so many years ago Christ was declared guilty. He had fought the good fight but he had lost. In the eyes of the world, in the eyes of His followers and in the eyes of his enemies Jesus Christ the carpenter from Nazareth had been proven…
Making a Messiah, Good Friday
It had been a full week, it had started with the crowds on the streets of Jerusalem and now here they were, just the thirteen of them in a private room celebrating the Passover. And only two people in that room knew where the night would lead. Jesus, because he was. . . Jesus. And…
Good Bye to the Rim
As difficult as it might seem to believe, I was having a coffee at Tim Horton’s the other day and I heard a staff member comment on how pleased the staff was that the roll up the rim contest was finished for yet another year. Curious, I asked why that was? She replied, explaining that…
Making a Messiah, Palm Sunday
For most of us the lead up to Easter begins with Palm Sunday, in case you missed it that’s today. But really the stage was set before the celebration of the triumphant entry. Most of you know that I am a Jesus Christ Super Star nerd and in the past I’ve shown the Palm Sunday…
May the Choice be with you
It was good to see old friends again, if only for a couple of hours. This week Angela and I finally got around to seeing Star Wars: The Force Awakens. And we enjoyed the familiar faces, although through the years the characters kept getting mixed up. Sometimes I thought I saw Indiana Jones instead of…
Your Attitude Will Determine Your Altitude
How many people know what a bucket list is? If you don’t know, it is a list of things you want to do before you die, or kick the bucket. The concept is best explained in the 2007 movie with Jack Nicolson and Morgan Freeman. (Show clip) How many of you have a bucket list? …
Fly Away
We are home from our vacation. We had a great time and everything went smoothly right up to our flight home. Plane left on time, flight crew was great, we arrived on time and then we attempted to land in Halifax. We experienced some of the worst turbulence that I have ever been in and…
