Wow, it's been far too long since I posted here on the ole blog. I'm sorry it's been so long -- but I've been a part of Nine On Your Side's Team Coverage of the Greenville church fires. Two 16-hour days in a row don't leave much time for bloggin', but I'm back now and hope to have more fresh content for you tonight.
In case you haven't heard -- the task force established by the Greenville Police Department to investigate the church fires is now officially calling the blazes "arson." I'm sure for most of you, you'd made up your own mind about that by now. Apparently the materials the GPD sent off to the SBI crime lab in Raleigh have confirmed that the fires at Memorial and Unity were intentionally set.
Regardless of your religious beliefs (or non-religious beliefs, for that matter), it's a shame to think that someone would intentionally destroy something that so many people treasure so much. It will be interesting to watch the Task Force track down who did it -- and just as importantly, determine why.
OK, back to work -- I'll try to have more on here later this evening.
For now, y'all stay warm!

Welcome back.
They may find out 'who', but the 'why' may remain a mystery forever. Kinda like why did a father decapitate his own 4 yr old daughter's head? Will we ever know the 'why'? I don't know that we will ever understand. My feeling is it is the devil and God is not a part of our lives in this country...'nuff said.
Why is not for us to know. If you have God on your side you can and will get thru anything. If more of us stand together, putting God back in our lives, it will become clear that thru him all things are possible. The Lord only know why things happen and for our sakes it's best to let go and let God. Have faith. He will make this a blessing. People in the community are coming together for a cause--GOD and the house of the Lord. How many new people may be saved by coming to help these churches. When was the last time people in Pitt County and surrounding areas can say they have come together for a selfless cause. Please learn to forgive. I'm not saying this person or people shouldn't be punished for their crimes, I BELEIVE THEY SHOULD!!! But I will not be the final judge. That is for the LORD. He is in my heart, home, family and country. He is everywhere. It's your job to open your heart and receive him.
