Wanted: Prophets of God
Has the world become so sophisticated and educated we no longer need Godly men and women declaring the word of the Lord? Is everyone pursuing God with utter abandonment? Do they yet know the freedom Jesus has purchased with His very own blood? Wanted: prophets of God. Has the church of Jesus Christ finally grown…

Weak Reeds and Flickering Candles
Does a person have to scream and holler to prove they’re right? Must they write in ALL CAPS to get their point across? What would Jesus do? “He [would] not crush the weakest reed or put out a flickering candle…” (Matthew 12:20 NLT) Big doesn’t spell best, loud doesn’t mean legitimate, and it’s not a…

Lawlessness – the Spirit of the Age
The spirit of antichrist is becoming more and more prominent.

Most people know what I’m talking about when I say growing up has its challenges. Do you agree? And many people (especially baby boomers) can remember those seven terrifying words which struck fear into the heart of every kid; words only a frustrated and frazzled mother could say. “Just wait until your father gets home!”…

Mirror, Mirror On The Wall…
“Mirror, mirror, on the wall…”, inquired the evil queen in the fairy tale “Snow White”. Have you ever wished YOU had such a mirror; one that would always tell the truth, regardless of who’s standing in front of it? Actually, there is such a mirror. But the question is, can you handle the truth? Mirrors…

So you wanna be a preacher, eh?
Oh, I remember those early days of walking with Jesus. Studying the word, listening to teaching/preaching tapes, going to bible studies, and meeting with friends to share with them the latest revelation the Lord had given me. You see, I was called to preach. All I needed was a pulpit, a classroom, or some leadership…
