As a pastor and worship leader, I often get saddened by many in the western church saying that modern worship is too much about “me” and not enough about “God”. I understand the ideology behind it, and there are songs and lyrics that are so self centered that they miss the mark.But undoubtedly, there is […]
This is the cord to charge my phone. Thanks to a couple years of working in the cell phone industry, (while having a boss that likes order as much as I do) I typically always keep all of my cords like this. In fact, I try and keep as much of my life in order […]
I have to publically thank the Lord for once again protecting me! Ok- so y’all know I LOVE my truck. I’ve always dreamed of having a big, black, lifted Silverado and I was SO excited when I finally got one back in March.Well, it’s been a bumpy road to say the least! Unfortunately, the previous […]
Happy July 4th, friends! What a time we are living through, huh? I firmly believe that Jesus is knocking on the door of both our world and our hearts. I think what we are experiencing and starting to see is just the beginning of what’s to come, and Jesus is giving us every opportunity to […]
TETELESTAI. One of the last things Jesus said on the cross is one of the most powerful concepts that I don’t think many of us grasp the magnitude of. “It is finished” is what this Greek word literally translates to English. Without giving it much thought, I always assumed He was acknowledging that His time […]
As of right now, 3/30/2020 at approximately 10pm EST, there have been 3,167 deaths in the United States due to COVID-19, the Coronavirus. This is incredibly sad for all of us, and yet we haven’t even gotten close to the peak or apex, considering most states are reporting an increase of 20-30% in diagnosed cases […]
My niece was born on September 11th; it’s a shame that she can’t celebrate her birthday. You know- becuase of THE September 11th. She was born years after it happened, and of course had nothing to do with it- but, you know, it wouldn’t be right. Sounds silly, doesn’t it? That’s how I feel when […]
Men, it’s time to do better. I’ve heard of way too many instances lately of men getting lost in their own egos, blinded by false pride and doing significant and permanent damage to their families and marriages. It breaks my heart, and it adds to my sincere desire to help men heal, grow and understand […]
PARADIGM SHIFT! “Life isn’t about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.” I believed this for many years; I TAUGHT this for many years. It took me through a wonderful journey of learning, experiencing, relating, helping, and most importantly- clarifying. Clarifying what? God’s purpose in my life. You see, before I started this journey to […]
Happy Sabbath, my friends! As many of you know, Gia and I keep the traditional Sabbath, from sundown Friday to sundown Saturday. The Sabbath is a time set aside from work and busy-ness so that we can rest and recover from our week, and study the Word, praise God in our devotions and prayer, and […]
