Steve Beal Sr.

I am just a man. I am a father, a son, and a husband. I am a homemaker, caretaker, coach, writer, speaker, and photographer. I love God. I love my family. I love my country. God has blessed my family and I, and I am eternally grateful. Author of Generation Jumping: Losing those who are not lost. Downtime with my family is about as good as it gets for me. Being outdoors in nature, among the animals and the wilderness, the Created, comes pretty close. Baseball, followed by hockey, are my two favorite sports, with several others a close third. I would rather do it right the first time. Honesty, respect, and integrity are virtues that I hold dear, so I call it like I see it. Before we as a society attempt to re-define these words, I will be here telling the raw truth.

Ecclesiastes 4:7-12 (NLT)
The Advantages of Team

I observed yet another example of something meaningless under the sun. This is the case of a man who is all alone, without a child or a brother, yet who works hard to gain as much wealth as he can. But then he asks himself, “Who am I working for? Why am I giving up so much pleasure now?” It is all so meaningless and depressing.

Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed. If one person falls, the other can reach out and help. But someone who falls alone is in real trouble. Likewise, two people lying close together can keep each other warm. But how can one be warm alone? A person standing alone can be attacked and defeated, but two can stand back-to-back and conquer. Three are even better, for a triple-braided cord is not easily broken.

So we must not grow tired in doing good, for in due time we will gather the reward, if we do not give up. Galatians 6:9

 

Looking For Luck In All The Wrong Places

Don’t be selfish; don’t try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves. Don’t look out only for your own interests, but take an interest in others, too. Philippians 2:3-4

 

Can Hope Be Shutout?

-Goffstown Grizzlies Hockey-

 Can Hope Be Shutout? – December 15, 2025 – JFK Coliseum.

Don’t let anyone think less of you because you are young. Be an example to all believers in what you say; in the way you live… 1 Timothy 4:12

 

Warren No Defeats: Like A River’s Will

Warren No Defeats: Like A River’s Will

In the book, War and Peace, Leo Tolstoy reasoned that history is not shaped by great men, but rather, by the collective actions of countless individuals. Like a river’s current carving its own path, with its inexorable force, the sum of countless drops of water acting individually but in concert at the same time, creating a larger, unified, decisive movement. 

For Humankind, Because Charlie’s Blood Is Watering Your Field

For Humankind, Because Charlie’s Blood Is Watering Your Field.

Turning Point
A time at which a decisive change occurs—especially when blood waters the seed of new creation.

Genesis 1:1 – “In the beginning, God…”
These are my favorite four words. If true, Charlie Kirk’s murder was evil—not just chemistry. But there’s more:
Genesis 1:1 declares: Creation is intentional, ordered, solely God’s act. Human dignity is inherent—slavery, abuse, exploitation become sins against a holy God.

Creation has purpose → Ethics, justice, meaning are objective realities (not social constructs). I believe as Charlie did: “The greatest miracle is creation.”

Ripples

Ripples:

Imagine your life as a timeline, stretching from here to the horizon.
The space, a placid lake that watches sunsets and suns rising.

A timeline laid out before us, where it finishes we know not when.
It doesn’t seem so long measured against God, the beginning and the end.

Deer Delay

Deer Delay – Last day of June, 2025. 

After work on Monday afternoon, I went down to Londonderry to cut some grass. I was at Mom’s, the house and yard that I grew up in.

I Choose Joy, She Said

~I Choose Joy, She Said~

 

It’s 3:16 am, and I am awake before my alarm. My body is tired from driving 1,000 plus miles and working 30 plus hours over the past 3 days. But my internal clock woke me early because my mind has things to do. The 3:16 made me think of John 3:16 and that’s a good start to any day.

 

Like Coming Home

~Like Coming Home~

I was sitting at the featured table in the conference room during my second interview with a new company. Honestly, just a second interview with this company already felt like a win. Something felt different. Better. Authentic. And I hadn’t even started yet.

Sticks And Stones – Goffstown Grizzlies at Winnacunnet Warriors

-Goffstown Grizzlies Hockey-

Sticks And Stones – March 02, 2025

“Sticks and Stones” is an English-language children’s rhyme.

The rhyme is used as a defense against name-calling and verbal bullying, intended to increase resiliency, avoid physical retaliation, and/or to remain calm and indifferent.

The full rhyme is usually a variant of:

Sticks and stones may break my bones
But words shall never hurt me.
