On Sunday, in his sermon, our pastor Robb was talking about faith. And it reminded me of a time when we were at The Bridge and my good friend Steve Wilson was preaching. He came to me before the service began and asked if I’d help him. He was going to ask for a volunteer to fall […]

Last night, after the service, a brother was praying over me. I had never met Ray before, though I’ve seen him and heard from others that he is a prayer warrior and intercessor. So I was excited to finally meet him. As he was praying over me, the Lord gave him this vision. He saw me as a […]

…our Provider.
I had to take off work two days last week to be with Michelle. It was one of those “no-brainer” decisions, even though I did not have any paid time off available from work. This week, we found an envelope of cash between our screen door and front door when we came home from […]
Sometimes it takes heartache for us to realize how much we are loved. Brothers and sisters come out of the woodwork to express how much you mean to them and that you are in their thoughts and prayers.
I’m going to be preaching this Sunday at Providence. And the title of the sermon is “We’re In This […]

…even though I feel it should stop for me in my pain.
When we go through something that temporarily cripples us, our world stops. Our present reality is all we know. And we feel locked in that moment.

This well known phrase was spoken by Job after everything he had, including his children, was taken from him by the accuser and adversary of the children of God.
What would possess a man to vocalize such a statement?
What, besides faith in the God who loves him, could prompt such a declaration?
Nothing.
Only faith in the never-failing […]

Last night, on our way home after doing some running around, we opted to stop in at Arbys to grab a few sandwiches and fries. We definitely capitalized on the 5 for $6.95 deal. The gentleman next to us approached the cash register. The kid asked him if he could help him.
The customer responded, […]

Really good stuff.

The reality of being loved changes everything. To know that my wife loves me in spite of myself is amazing. And my parents’ faithful love over the many years I ran from Christ is beyond comprehension. Ah, but the love of Jesus, that is flippin’ unreal. The God who knows the deepest, darkest corners of […]
Jon and I arrived safely home last evening. We had an amazing time. The weather was clear. It was hot, but both places we camped had streams to swim in to cool down. Both nights, we had wonderful fellowship around a campfire. I hope to include some pictures when Jon sends them to me.
We saw this tree […]
