Only 10% of our customers achieve All Star status every year. That you've managed to do it for consecutive years puts you in an even more elite class, which makes your accomplishment even more noteworthy.

WHO opened the window to this SUV?
No one at this scene can explain how this woman was able to be rescued. It defies everything we know, and it can only be seen as a miracle of God. Watch how it happens and let us know what you think.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

 

"He set before me the book of nature; I understood how all the flowers He has created are beautiful, how the splendor of the rose and the whiteness of the Lily do not take away the perfume of the little violet or the delightful simplicity of the daisy. I understood that if all flowers wanted to be roses, nature would lose her springtime beauty, and the fields would no longer be decked out with little wild flowers. And so it is in the world of souls, Jesus' garden. He willed to create great souls comparable to lilies and roses, but He has created smaller ones and these must be content to be daisies or violets destined to give joy to God's glances when He looks down at His feet. Perfection consists in doing His will, in being what He wills us to be."

~St. Therese of Lisieux~
THE ART OF LIFE

Joseph Brickey

 

 

www.josephbrickey.com  

 

"I have always felt that only with the assistance of a higher power can I accomplish my artistic aims. Our gifts are given of God. They are meant to serve His purposes. My most profound desire is to wield worthily my gift and to one day be counted among His good and faithful servants."

 

Joseph F. Brickey was born on June 11, 1973 to Wayne and Joanne Brickey and currently resides in Provo, Utah, with his wife and four children. He has spend over a decade studying art throughout the United States and Europe and is a graduate of Brigham Young University. His award winning paintings have appeared in various publications and museums; he has found success and respect in painting many subjects, but considers creating religious artwork his greatest honor as an artist, including for LDS temples throughout the world. Joseph paints in a style reminiscent of the old masters, using classical form and composition to create art filled with symbolism.

 

 

 

"I am an artist first for God's sake, then for art's sake. Art should both measure up in the museum and capture the common heart. The greatest art is that which generates the greatest good."
