What Happened To Holiness?
To some the concept of holiness may seem impossible to our current generation.

Ministry Ain’t For Sissies, Part 3
Has God put a new vision on your heart that is HUGE? Are you excited and terrified at the same time? Do you feel like your passion for Him is so on fire you will burn up if you don’t share about Jesus with others? Have you survived a period of brokenness and come out […]

Physical Demands Of Spiritual Labor
After over 20 years of ministry I continue to learn that serving the Lord in any capacity requires spiritual, emotional and physical strength and endurance. Spiritual labor makes serious demands on us. Three years doing church consulting in the Northeast and then church planting took a heavy toll on me in all three areas. Yes it […]
Jesus In The Grocery Store Line
I enjoy going to the grocery store. A lot. So do my children. We enjoy the whole process until we get to the counter to check out. The values of the world we live in are displayed on the magazine covers for all to see while waiting to check out. Here are a few of […]
