  • Don’t Divide

    During my short life and my short time in ministry, I have seen how the work of God can often divide people. Many times, the divided people are the ones that aren’t actively involved in the ministry because it’s easier to criticize after God moves than to be involved in the process.  In John 9,…

    I stayed up last night to watch these guys. I’m really glad it’s NBA season again. This time of the year is probably the best time for sports fans. The World Series is being played, college football and the NFL are on, and hockey is in full swing! I thought that this post by Steven…

    Hebrews 12:18-19, 22 “You have not come to a mountain that can be touched and that is burning with fire.  You have not come to darnkness, sadness, and storms.  You have not come to the noise of a trumptet or to the sound of a voice like the one the people of Israel heard and…

    I’ve always been a person willing to take risks. As a matter of fact, sometimes I’ve been known to take stupid risks without thinking them through. However, I like this fact about myself. I firmly believe that as Christians, we are to be risk takers. That’s what Jesus did. Risks are not always easy to…

  • Look To The Future

    We are people that tend to focus on the past.  We look at the past to remember past experiences that went well.  We remember the times when “things were easier.”  We remember what has been and how good it was.  We even remember the wonderful way that things have always been. In my experience, one…
