Do you love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, body, and mind? Do you love your neighbor as yourself unconditionally? If you claim to be a follower of Jesus and answered NO to either of these questions, do you believe...

Scott I agree with you. I don't believe any of us could say that we love God or others to the extent we should. I believe that we are to be continually growing in our love for both. And, I think it's important to note that both of those relationships go hand in...

How important is attending church to you? What do you get out of it? Simple questions which may be hard for some to explain so non-church goers can understand. What do you consider the most important factors in choosing a...

Scott There are many factors that need to be considered when choosing a church. I would say that the ideal church would be one that places an emphasis on teaching theological truths in a way that is able to be practically applied to your life. There has to be an...

I have made this statement too many times to count around here, although most of the time it falls on deaf ears. America first. For the record, I am a conservative republican. I have said that too. Did I support...

Scott I agree with your thought process. It's difficult to have discussions like that now. Everything is so polarized. People think if you agree with someone's policies then you somehow agree with everything they are and do. And that's simply not the case. In my...

This morning's poll on Bing was asking whether or not I prefer to wear socks to bed or go barefoot. I answered "socks on" because right now it is winter, and during the winter I wear socks to bed. But if it had been summer, my...

Scott I tend to go without socks to bed all year round. Honestly, I go without socks a lot throughout the day as well. In the summer, I am barefooted most of the time.

My goal is always to hit at least $20 for a tank of gas in my cute little convertible. My bonus goal is $25 which I hit now and then. Today I reached $30. WOOHOO! I'm rich! Still a tank of gas. I'll take it. I...

Scott That’s awesome! I’m back on MyLot after taking a break for awhile. I’m glad to be back here and looking forward to reading and interacting with everyone. The money is a perk though. I normally use my extra money to put toward vacations.

Scott Great words of advice. I find myself often thinking I can handle things on my own. It’s only when I realize I’ve gotten in over my head that I turn to God for the answers. To be honest, I think we all struggle with that from time to time. Thank you for the...

Scott Not much changed in our lives with COVID. For the first month or so we stayed home. Our kids did distance learning for a few months but went back to in person learning at the beginning of the next school year. My wife runs her business from home so that...

Scott I personally agree with Trump in principle....at least what the executive order appears to have been trying to accomplish (not what the media tells everyone it says). I believe that it is a good thing that the United States ensures that the people getting...

Scott I'm really sorry to hear that you are facing depression! You are absolutely right that depression is no joke. I have suffered from it from a long time. Although mine isn't that severe, any depression is more than one can handle alone! For a long time, people...

I have to admit that I really wasn't that excited about the Super Bowl this time around. My team (Carolina Panthers) were obviously not making a return trip to the big game this year. And the Falcons are big conference rivals of...

Scott That sounds great! I love photography and spend a great deal of time out and about taking nature photos. I haven't been able to get out and do a lot of photos of snowfall as we don't get that much in our area.

Scott That sounds awesome! I also have a job outside of what I do online. Creating and maintaining a blog can be a lot of work but it is definitely worth it! I have a blog of my own that's more of a hobby of sorts for me, but one of my goals for the coming year is...

Scott @CaseyRoss9966 Yeah it's crazy that people are so close to there and don't even know the college is there. I grew up in Mount Airy (better known as Mayberry from the Andy Griffith Show) and live in Elkin. It's about an hour or so away from Boone. We were just...

Scott He's a very cute dog. I love Boston Terriers. One of my best friends had one when we were younger. I love animals in general. We do not have a dog right now, but we do have a cat. He is 8 years old (soon to be 9).

Scott @wongchoiyee It can be difficult sometimes to come up with things write on a consistent basis. In order to stay fresh with my ideas, I do a lot of research online to see what is trending or what could be trending in the near future.
