Turning 100 is something I’m pretty sure I’ll never get to experience but recently I had the pleasure of sitting down with a Nashville man and asking him a couple of questions about turning 100.
Burell Hill turned 100 years old in January. When I first walked into his home, he was sitting in a recliner and he looked up and smiled at me. I thought I may have been in the wrong home because Mr. Hill certainly didn’t look 100. But he assured me he was 100.

Thirty years ago when we lived in Georgia, our church had a 24-hour prayer vigil. Church members volunteered for specific times and the church stayed open all night long. There wasn't a minute that lapsed during that 24-hour period when someone wasn't at church praying.It's funny how God can and will bless the time that we spend serving Him, even when we didn't really care to do it. I really didn't want to go to church that night.

Over the past year and a half of this pandemic, we've all been more worried than ever about our loved ones' health and safety. Unfortunately, at the same time, scammers are looking for ways to take our money. These criminals exploit fake familial bonds by tricking our grandparents and elderly loved ones. This year alone, North Carolinians have reported losing more than $150,000 to grandparent scams, and we know that's just the tip of the iceberg. Here's what you need to know about grandparent scams, and how to help your loved ones avoid them.
