I’m never quite sure which posts I write will strike a nerve with people. Some posts I have written that I’ve thought would be well-liked, were passed over like beets at my dinner table. A few times I’ve written things that have made a few people mad. Then there’s those occasions when I post something [...]

I’m at the Tulsa Workshop this weekend. I love the Tulsa Workshop. Every year they line up some amazing speakers. They have 5 speakers to choose from for each session, making the toughest part of the day deciding which speaker to go hear. Don McLaughlin kicked things off last night with an AMAZING lesson. I [...]

There’s not a Wednesday that goes by that I don’t think of the Dump People. This is their day… their day of the week to be fed. Every Wednesday Marc Tindall and a group of Christians make a trip to the Tegucigalpa dump in Honduras to feed starving people who live there. Sadly, the dump [...]

Last week while in Miami I had a chance to run on South Beach with a big group of men. One of the men I had the privilege to meet was a multi-millionaire. I’m not sure I’ve ever met a millionaire before, and I surely haven’t run with one. As we ran I found out [...]

Here are a few pictures from our Miami trip… Taylor and Lea Connor & Cooper … the water was REALLY cold. An 8 mile run with the Raven. Someone needed to be buried in the sand. Connor volunteered. Taylor & Parker It was beautiful at South Beach. Wow, it was cold. Parker It was Spring [...]

A bucket list is a list of things you’d like to do before you die. The term “bucket list” became popular from the 2007 film by the same title. It’s not unusual to hear people say today, “That’s on my bucket list,” meaning it’s something they want to do before they die. I’ve lived a [...]

(Out by Homestead Motor Speedway. Palm trees everywhere. Not use to seeing palm trees … or this many trees, period) We’re having a good time in warm sunny South Florida. Our planes were hours behind schedule, when we got in on Saturday, so we didn’t arrive in Miami until nearly 11 p.m. It was good [...]

CARISSA … at 4:14 pm she said, “My husband and I are always looking for good things to read as a couple. These look like the perfect place to start. Thanks for the suggestion!” Carissa, if you’ll email me at treymorgan @ msn . com with your address I’ll send you a copy of … [...]

After a long cold winter, I’m ready for some warm sunshine and to spend some time on the beach. I can’t wait to hang out with Taylor and the Miami AIM team. It’s going to be a great week. What are your Spring Break plans?

Some people will do anything to feel close to God… I simply read this!

On Miami’s South Beach, you’ll find Robert Kraft, better known as The Raven. He’s there every day. Robert made a New Year’s resolution back on January 1, 1975 to run 8 miles every day that year. Now, 34 years later he still hasn’t missed a day. Eight miles every day for the past 34 years. [...]

Last night Lea and I went to Amarillo with four other couples to catch a nice dinner and a play. We ate at Logan’s Steakhouse, and I thought I’d eat healthy, so I ordered the grilled fish. Lea ordered the grilled meatloaf. It didn’t take me long to question her ordering skills (or lack thereof), [...]

A wife came back into the bedroom only to find her husband STILL in bed on a Sunday morning. “Honey,” she said, “You’ve got to get up. You’re going to be late for church.” Pulling the covers up over his head, he grumbled, “I’m not going to church this morning.” “Yes, you ARE,” his wife [...]

My friend John Dobbs came up with a great idea this week. He said, “Let’s all blog about a minister who has been a great influence in our lives. Post about someone who has influenced you in a positive way.” I love John’s idea, and I gladly accept the challenge to tell you about two [...]

I’m excited about today. Due to a cold rainy morning, my day started at 5 a.m. with P90X instead of a run. I’m also taking the day off to spend with my beautiful wife. We’re long overdo for sneaking out of town, doing some shopping, and having lunch together. I can’t wait. My goal today [...]

Lea hasn’t always been the only girl for me. There have been others. Nine or ten to be exact, and all of them over the age of 70. They were the sweetest group of Christian ladies that I fell in love with years ago. When Lea and I moved to Tulia in 1992, we got [...]

I’m not a big fan of referees. Yes, I have a couple of friends that are (or have been) referees, but I’m still not a fan. They’re kind of a necessary-evil at ballgames, because you have to have them to keep things running smoothly. It’s a hard job to be a referee, but think for [...]

I asked my new friend, Dean, for permission to share his story with you. It’s too good not to share. It’s about all the things I love: marriage, love and God. Instead of me retelling the story in my words, I’m going to let him tell it, exactly as he told me. A little warning [...]

Last year on May 5th we had the first ever, “Feed the Dump People” day. We were hoping to raise about $2500 to feed the hungry people of the Tegucigalpa dump in Honduras. I greatly underestimated God that day. We didn’t raise $2500, instead in one day we raised an incredible $12,000. That’s just another [...]

I am amazed by all the things a cellphone and smartphone will do these days. On my Blackberry I can check my email, Facebook messages and text messages. My cellphone also has my date book, my “to do” list and my address book on it. One of the things I love most about my phone [...]

I’ve had my heart broken many times by the suffering that I’ve seen in Honduras, but this last trip it was crushed by a little girl who lived at the dump. Probably a dump kid all her life, she only knew a life of hunger, garbage and suffering. The dump is a dark place. Life [...]

“A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, and always with the same person.” All marriages, including mine, have ups and downs. The goal is to make the ups get longer and the downs get shorter. It should be the goal of any married couple to reconnect on a regular basis, especially if you [...]

I learn new things about raising boys all the time. One thing I’ve picked up on lately is how important it is that my children have encouragement from someone other than their parents. They say it takes a village to raise a child, and I’m finding that true with raising my boys. In my life, [...]

When someone is looking for information, I regularly hear the phrase, “Just Google it.” That means search for it on the internet. When people search Google, Yahoo or MSN and are sent to my blog (or any other site), it’s called a referral. I love looking at “referrals” on my sitemeter. Some people search for [...]

(Amanda Sanders is one of my favorite bloggers. She is a “must read” on my daily list. I asked her to guest post on my blog and she didn’t disappoint. Enjoy this little piece and make sure you put her blog on your “must read” list.) Valentine’s Day is perhaps the trickiest holiday for most [...]

According to American Profile magazine, all of the following are actual names given to children by their parents… Morning Desire Country Musick April May March Beau Hunter Heaven Leigh Friend Arayah Sunshine Shyne Golden Bright Manly Mann Ben Gay III I’ve heard of making your child’s name so unique that they standout, but these are [...]

Based on Bible sales, a recent study shows which bible translations are the most popular. Here are the top 10… 1. New International Version 2. New King James Version 3. King James Version 4. New Living Translation 5. English Standard Version 6. Holman Christian Standard Bible 7. New American Standard Bible 8. The Message 9. [...]

I love to preach, and I want to bring my A-game every week. Nothing KILLS me more than when I don’t feel like I’ve done a very good job presenting a lesson. I don’t know, maybe it was because I had the stomach bug this weekend, but I just didn’t have it this Sunday morning [...]

One of the main things I love about the Super Bowl is the commercials. Here’s one that’ll play tomorrow called, “Keep your hands off my momma & keep your hands off my Doritos.” I love it.

Yesterday after getting my 8 year old Cooper from school, we had this conversation on the way home… COOPER: “Dad, how old were you 30 years ago?” ME: “I would have been 14 years old.” COOPER: “I bet your life was boring back then.” ME: “What do you mean by that, because my life was [...]

When it comes to marriage, Lea and I struggle with the same things you struggle with. We often find ourselves taking one another for granted for the sake of less important things. Things like busyness, ministries, work and hobbies will always crowd a marriage for time, but I think the biggest challenge for any marriage, [...]

I went back and looked at an old post this morning to see when I first met my friend John Thomas. It was February 7, 2007, because I wrote a post about him. I will never forget the occasion because he made a lasting impression on me. It was following a graveside service that I [...]

That was sure a BIG ice storm that came through here. I hope they like fish-sticks! I hope you’re staying warm today.
