I have been blessed to build a friendship over the past few years with a business leader who “gets it” about as well as any I know. Donnie Smith, new CEO of Tyson Foods (located here in northwest Arkansas), has worked at Tyson Foods for 30 years. On Tuesday, the Wall Street Journal published a feature interview [...]

Lord, you have assigned my portion and my cup; you have made my lot secure.  The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; surely I have a delightful inheritance.  Psalms 16: 5-6 I was talking with a group of folks the other day about the present state of our economy and all that [...]

My battery croaked in my old Suburban over the Labor Day weekend. I went to a local auto parts store to get it replaced. I was met at the door by a man with a smile and a “how can I help you?” salutation. He seemed sharp, but he was obviously new. He struggled with the computer systems [...]

Posted in 31 Days of Proverbs and Prayer, Economy, Money on July 29, 2009 | 2 Comments »

…give me neither poverty nor riches, but give me only my daily bread. Otherwise, I may have too much and disown you and say, “Who is the Lord?” Or I may become poor and steal.   Proverbs 30:8-9 As we count down our 31 Days of Proverbs and Prayer, it’s seems fitting that we can focus on [...]
