God IS Moving!
God IS moving throughout the world! “But I haven’t seen Him do anything! He hasn’t moved for me!” What if He moved in a way that we’d never witnessed? What if He told us things we’d never heard before? What if He actually smashed the religious boxes we have tried so desperately to keep Him…

The Dreaded Children of God
I feel like I’ve missed something important. I mean REAL important. I’ve been a Christian, a born-again child of God, for 38 years. I’ve been a minister, preacher, pastor for 30 years. But I still feel like I’ve missed something important. REAL important! I’ve witnessed God minister in outstanding ways to men and women, boys…

The “Tingler”-Spirit of Fear
As a kid, I saw some scary movies. Haunted Palace, a 1963 movie, is one I saw at a theater when it was first released. I was not quite 9 years old, and even though I spent half the time huddled behind the seat in front of me, it scared the bejeebers out of me.…

When’s the last time you thought about flies? You know, those pesky little critters with wings and big eyes. The ones that always have to fly in…

Brilliant Man?
Knowledge, inventions, scientific discoveries; these all seem to be increasing. Multiplying! Wouldn’t you agree that there are a lot of brilliant people in this world? Just think of all the inventions within the last 60 years! Since I’ve been on this earth, the world has seen some awesome things “invented”. For instance: 1955 TV Remote…

Bridge Boy
Have you ever known someone who had tons of great ideas, yet they were only great to the one who thought of them? If so, you probably knew me when I was between the ages of 15 and 18. One of my greatest ideas, some would say my “signature idea”, was my idea to live…

Appreciate Your Pastor
Disclaimer: This post is not about my wife and I. Though we have pastored a couple of churches in the past, we are not pastoring now. However, we do know what it’s like; the joys, the sorrows, the pressures, the emotions and spiritual battles involved with one of the most important ministries in the Kingdom…
