The snow began falling and the wind blowing in Fairhope this morning. After several inches, it continues to fall. The Great Fairhope Blizzard of 2025 will be remembered for a long time! It is an Alabama version of Narnia out there!

Great Fairhope Blizzard of 2025 finally winding down after shattering snowfall records that go back to the 19th century. Extreme cold warning (perhaps single digits) until 10am tomorrow (Wed). Boogie Boards becoming sleds. Winter sports AL style!

Sparkling day after the Great Fairhope Blizzard of 2025! Still very cold. All is well for another day of writing, today w/ Bach’s Goldberg Variations recorded by Dinnerstein and Cafe au lait

Journal entry from November 14, 2024: You don’t really learn to trust the Lord until you have excellent reasons not to trust Him.

Looking forward to an NOBTS visit this week. Thursday March 13 I will speak in Chapel. They asked me to address my journey w/ grief. That afternoon will be the Leavell Center for Evangelism Lectures. I will do 2 presentations on my research in SBC evangelism. Come join us!

I had a fabulous time at NOBTS last week, speaking in Chapel & delivering the Leavell Center Lectures on the topic of The Great Commission Journey of the SBC. The Dews made my time very, very special. Memories, old friends & new everywhere I turned. Definitely a Wow experience!

I am so very grateful for the echoes of my Beloved all around me. Today I was in Barnes & Noble & saw copies of both The Study Bible for Women & The Woman’s Study Bible, prepared by Rhonda & my sister Dorothy to help women dig into God’s Word. Both still in print & going strong!

Christ is risen! Because He lives, my Beloved lives. Because He lives, all who come to Him receive pardon for their sin and the gift of unquenchable life. Hallelujah!

With these three angels nurturing, encouraging, & walking w/ me, you know it has been a wonderful life! Here are my Beloved, her Mother, & my Mom. Happy Mother’s Day to all the Moms out there! You really have made a difference.

It is the season for graduations. Here is a new blog reflecting on my high school graduation 55 years ago this month. No idea then I would be at graduation ceremonies on campuses & in max security prisons most of my adult life. Enjoy your happy memories! drchuckkelley.com/post/a-night-t…

What a spectacular marriage gumbo God served my Beloved and me! Sweet joys balanced w/ bitter heartaches. Priceless family & friends. Long labor, great victories, complex troubles, rich ministry moments. I wish all could have a bowl of what God began serving us 51 years ago today

Curious at how little reference is made to Biden’s shoveling of billions & billions of $ out the door, particularly in last months taking so much of the wiggle room out of budget & forcing tough cuts.

As a wonderful Lord’s Day in North Georgia draws to a close, I am eager to dive back into writing. Tomorrow begins work on the Ichabod Line: defining it & explaining its application to the life cycle of churches.

Two Sisters Bakery & Cafe on Scenic 98 is one of my favorite places to go for morning coffee. Nestled perfectly under a huge old oak tree, I usually go at least once a week for coffee, a fabulous cinnamon roll & a quiet place to work for an hour or so. Great lunch menu also.

I began this week in New Orleans to take care of this & that. As I drove back to Fairhope yesterday, I suddenly realized this is Fall #50 for me at NOBTS. Rhonda & I moved to NOLA for me to start the 3 yr MDiv in the Fall of 1975. Little did we know what awaited as we unpacked!
