Sitting at the table listening to a “new” friend speak of the tough times she was facing my heart strings were being pulled at intensely. Her husband had just received the devastating word, cancer. With two small children, a business to run, a family and marriage to care for, my friend needed nothing short ofContinueContinue reading “When my coffee was hot…”

JUST SAY IT
It’s been one month and a week now living in San Francisco. The weather is great, the kids love school, the church has embraced us, the parking is still annoying but all in all we have settled in. I would love to tell you that life is GREAT and EXACTLY what I desired, but honestlyContinueContinue reading “JUST SAY IT”
Don’t throw it away!
This past month has been an eventful time in my life. Moving my family across the world from Alabama to San Francisco, CA has been adventurous, amusing and diverse. One of the many “new” things I’m learning is how to separate my trash. In Alabama, we had one trash can, and here we have threeContinueContinue reading “Don’t throw it away!”
Grace Path
How do you find your way in the mazes of life? Jesus is most surely the answer, but as a child of God sometimes we lack direction and we are desperate for a voice to tell us where to go next. Sometimes, in the midst of the chaos, we choose worldly voices over heavenly voices.ContinueContinue reading “Grace Path”
Sink or Sail
1 Corinthians 15:33 (NIV) Do not be misled: “Bad company corrupts good character.” “Friends are like elevator buttons they either take you up or take you down.” I’ll never forget senior skip day. Beautiful day with the glorious weather when I and my buddies jumped into a jeep and traveled to Little River Canyon forContinueContinue reading “Sink or Sail”

Jesus + Guts
Galatians 2:20 (NLT) 20 My old self has been crucified with Christ.[a] It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. So I live in this earthly body by trusting in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. Just think on this scripture just for a minute…when youContinueContinue reading “Jesus + Guts”
Soul Roots
Becoming a fearless, unshakeable warrior for Jesus requires something deeper. It requires for your wretched soul to dig deep, grow deep, and survive deep into the ground of God’s eternal and perfect plan for your life. It requires the Spirit of God, the Holy Spirit, living deep within your soul to be the inner voice,ContinueContinue reading “Soul Roots”
Somebody, somewhere is depending on you to do what God has called you to do.
Lengthy title I know. But think about the pressure of this statement. How are we as humans supposed to just know what God has called us to do. If God is calling us to have a purpose, then what is my purpose? If God has a plan for me (Jeremiah 29:11) and a future thenContinueContinue reading “Somebody, somewhere is depending on you to do what God has called you to do.”

He is building a Kingdom that will last forever, and He wants to build it inContinueContinue reading “Your Blueprint”
