To create and use my unique woodcarvings to teach Biblical truths in a joyful and gentle way so as to train and evangelize people to make God the Center of their lives. Thus they will enjoy a relationship with HIM.

Paul has started a new carving..."One Another's" meaning we as believers ought to be connecting.
It all started when he was in PA and a bait shop told him they will be closing because people buy all their fishing supplies on the internet. Another bait store told him when someone comes in and asks "where are the fish biting", he says "ask the internet that is where you bought your bait".
Paul realized for him the fishing experience was not just catching fish, but stopping at the bait shop, talking with other fishermen...the connecting of the experiences they shared as fishermen.
Thus, he begin his "picking" for a "bait shop" in our garage. At first I saw this has junk for his collection. But now I see it as "bait". Over time people have started collecting for him and started sharing their stories. Some are just fishing stories, but others share their hearts with him. One guy said "just talking with you makes me want to live better".
Then we started thinking about the "one another's" in church. So many of us go to church sing a few songs, hear a good message and go home. But what about the "one another's" the connecting and knowing each other's stories... Thanks to Pastor Joel Horne's notes and Paul's new carving I know I will learn about more about "one another".
