CHANGES COMING…

Just a quick informative email to all of you who follow my blog. We’re making some exciting changes here at KSM in 2022! You’ll here much more about that soon! First however, a little house keeping.

To streamline the blogging process, you will begin to receive blog notifications via a different source. Currently my blog notification reaches you in this form:

The next blog (a very important one) will come like this:

Hard to believe another Christmas has come…and nearly gone.  

It is well before sunrise this morning as I write this.  Once again I awoke quite early, seems I do that more and more often as the years go by.  And once again the cinema runs at hundred feet per second replete with scenes of Christmases past. No sleep on this morning for sure. 

In one unexpected moment I am twelve years old again (that may sound familiar to those who have read my books) and I am lying in my bed in that little house…

There’s just something about being on the road that makes me smile.  It was that way when I was on a childhood vacation, and it still is.  Today we are back on the road to do our Christmas concert series, and guess what? I’m smiling. Our last “pre-pandemic” Christmas held 17 events.  Last year was just 7 (for which we are still VERY grateful).  This year holds 9.  At least we’re going the right direction.

I’m not smiling because everything is great, its actually been a really crazy Thanksgiving week…

I’ve been asked several times today how yesterday’s presentation of the first MATTHEW VIRGEL SCHOLARSHIP went. I’ve been thinking all day on exactly what to say, and I find myself tonight with a dozen thoughts, yet few coherent sentences. So let’s try this one a bit differently. How about some random thoughts and you can reach your own conclusion? Here we go…

Extremely warm welcome Very professional, organized, competent and accommodating staff A room full of respectful students and…

I’ve been taking about a “pretty big development” for KNIGHTSONG Ministries in my blog, posts and in our appearances.  It’s finally time to go public, at least the first part. We are absolutely thrilled to announce the presentation of the very first MATTHEW VIRGIL SCHOLARSHIP!  Thanks to a generous supporter, we have partnered with Jacksonville College (Matt’s alma mater) right here in East Texas.

On Wednesday morning of this week (October 27, 2021) I have the privilege to tell Matt’s story in a…

A cheerful heart is good medicine.  Now I didn’t make that one up, someone far wiser than me, or any of us for that matter, said that a long time ago.  I think he was on to something.  As I look back over my life at the truly difficult days of the Journey, I can remember hours, weeks and even months when it seemed there was no laughter in my world.  I have described grief to others as feeling like “someone turned off all the music”.  Funny how even right now I remember how quiet it was… so very quiet.   

Well here it is…  the blog I thought I might never write.  And to be quite honest, I still don’t know what the second step is for KSM, but I know the next one…finally!  For those of you who have followed this ministry over the past years, you know that this is the way it has always been; a journey of faith, revealed one step at a time.  And truly I believe this is what makes the life of faith so challenging, so exciting, so rewarding… and so much fun!   And please help me share this message by link, by…

Now Shaunda is not “preppy” in the 90’s kind of way (you may remember turned up collars and spiked hair).  No, she’s “preppy” in an “almost a survivalist” kind of way.  And she’ll tell you that she has taken more than a little bit of teasing from the rest of us over the years.

Y2K was an exceptionally “preppy” time for Shaunda.  That’s when I first remember scanning for “best by” dates at the warehouse store, but it certainly wasn’t the last.  Several cases of bottled water and several dozen cans of…

Well….  what a strange year this has been for all of us!  As I’m sure you noticed, it’s been quite a while since I shared anything about KSM, and there’s a couple reasons for that.  First, it seems like everyone is having a rough go of it in one way or another, and second… well, there hasn’t been all that much to talk about.  I told Matt’s story on March 15 of this year… and we all remember that date, don’t we?  That was the last time I shared his story until October 4.  

You may (or may not) recall…

Ever feel like you just need a quiet place to get away from it all?  Wow, who has not said that over these past few crazy months of 2020?  I have such a place.  It is the in the corner of the studios of KNIGHTsong Ministries (otherwise known as my in-laws spare bedroom) where I am seated at the piano.  It has been at the piano that I have found my “quiet place” throughout my entire life.

And now, I want to share it with all of you absolutely free!   Well, almost…

I have just finished the second…
