HELL, NO!
I read this blog during my morning reads today. It gripped my heart! I had to share it with all of you. Please allow it to do the same to you. Please! Let’s pray for our city! BROADWAY DURING RUSH HOUR by David Wilkerson [May 19, 1931 – April 27, 2011] As I walked up…
Read MoreMy New Take on Transition
It looks like we finally finished with the move of our offices and my home. Wow, this one was a tough one, but a good one as well! I feel like I have a new take on the term “transition.” Here’s my take on transition… It’s not just a “Christianeese” term; it’s an ongoing process…
Read MoreRevival is…
This week I began reading the book, I am Your Sign, by Sean Smith. Sean is a young revivalist that I had the privilege of meeting. We are working on Sean coming to Impact Church to deposit to our people and our region what God is doing through him. Can’t wait! Below are some of…
Read MoreRemember His Promise
I received a very encouraging text this morning from one of our staff pastors. It’s refreshing being on the receiving end of a Word from God. She shared a certain scripture, along with a word of encouragement, which brought to light a promise we’ve been pursuing for quite some time. It brought me to tears.…

Most people admit that their wrong decisions came from a lack of information. But we live in the age of information; information is at our finger tips. We operate on the information super highway; information is everywhere. I don’t think our problem is lack of information, rather the understanding of information. As a Pastor, knowledge…
Read MoreHearing God’s Voice

When God seems silent, it’s not that He stopped speaking to us rather it’s us that stopped listening to him. God is continually acting on our behalf. He desires to…
Read MoreIgnored on Facebook
I’m curious… Yesterday, I posted a Facebook status update and didn’t receive any comments. As a matter of fact, I didn’t receive any “likes” either. I was ignored and shutdown! LOL! I posted the status on Friday morning, in the midst of all the numerous TGIF declarations. Honesty, I got tired of seeing all the…
Read MoreDEADLINES!
I’ve always been a deadline person. Without deadlines I don’t think I’ll ever complete anything. Deadlines create in me a focus. Deadlines are finish lines and I love finish lines. I’ve come to realize that without deadlines, I slide into procrastination in some areas and in others, I lock into perfectionism. I guess it all…
Read MoreDeception through Perception
After twenty-two years of ministry, I’ve come to recognize the enemy’s most popular tactic used for bringing confusion and death – Deception through perception. Although I can write volumes about this subject, I’ll just share a few thoughts, after all this is only a blog. We all should know that the only power the enemy…
