Yesterday I was blessed to preach at my church which I always love to do when the pastor takes a break. The week before his message was about the ABCs of having an exceptional 2024. His points were as follows: A – Accept Responsibility for Yourself B – Believe You Can Change C – Clarify

I was stunned this morning when I had a notification from WordPress letting me know my blog site’s October 2023 numbers. According to the report, the site had 1,042 views and 742 vistors.

I remember the time Lisa and I flew to Arizona for my ordination board. I really didn’t know what to expect and my calls to the credentialing folks at the Evangelical Church Alliance International didn’t give me any clues.

I don’t know what you’re seeing in your lives right now but in my world there are a lot of hurting people! Some are hurting emotionally over personal losses. Some are struggling due to severe financial burdens. Others are angry with God and have stopped trusting Him. And others are having a variety of troubles

Hey everyone! I know, I know. I haven’t blogged forever! But here’s the interesting part: I’ve actually started several blogs but never posted them. Why? I realized it was spiritual warfare!
