WORLD SHAKER & HISTORY MAKER
In the mid 1990’s I heard a message titled, World Shakers and History Makers. I’m not sure where is it originated from, but I do know it became popular and soon thereafter preachers, including myself, were calling it theirs and preaching their own version of it. I still strongly believe in the essence of the…

In the “pastor/guest speaker” culture, it’s usually customary that on the eve before the guest speaker speaks at the pastor’s church, that the pastor takes him out to eat at a steak house (or restaurant the represents the culture of the geographical location) LOL! I followed these unwritten rules of the culture last night. We…

I’m really being challenged by Steven Furtick’s new book, Sun Stand Still.

I’m learning much about prayer and intercession. And what I’m learning is really a re-learning. These are principles and concepts things that I’ve been taught but in all honesty I haven’t really “caught.” We pastors are a “strange breed.” Our calling and our duty is to teach and train even thought we really haven’t fully…

“When you see the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God, and the priests, who are Levites, carrying it, you are to move out from your positions and follow it. 4 Then you will know which way to go, since you have never been this way before… (Joshua 3:3-4) I feel like I…

I’m really having a lot fun preaching with my wife. The Family 101 series has been enjoyable and very interesting thus far! I tell you… she can preach! When I married her I married the whole package… looks (she’s flat out fine!) singer/musician, a great discerner, a great mother, an organizer, an interior designer, and…
