The i Believe design was inspired by God and we honor Him
with it on t-Shirts, ball caps and window stickers. The small i simply states "less of me and more of Him". The word Believe following the small i shares our faith in God. The exclamation mark is to shout it from the roof tops. The streak across the words help form a cross to further point people to Calvary. |

The Island at Lake Beshear (aka Goat Island) is now being used for Inspirational Country Music Concerts. 2 concerts have been held on the island and plans are on the drawing board to develop a music park with a lighthouse where inspirational music will be heard 24 hours a day through a solar powered pa system. Another great opportunity to share the Gospel thru song. |

2018 while horse sitting for friends in Florida I was inspired to write the first "Messages from the barn". The next day another one, then another. Before I knew it I had written a dozen and continued as the inspirations came. Today there are about 50 posted on our site. Several have told me I should publish them but I feel like I am supposed to make them available to everyone FREE. Thanks & hope you enjoy reading. Be inspired!
