As a teenager, I found myself in Church everyday. We had the: Sunday service, Monday fresh anointing service, Tuesday choir practice, Wednesday Bible study, Thursday prayer meeting, Friday breakthrough service, Saturday's Ushers meeting... I imagine you are laughing by now. Perhaps you too can relate. But I got a lot of out this, especially a song. This song sounded pop like, with a 5 clap sequence intricately woven in.

Living Your Dream

I recently had lunch with my best friend and former roommate. We had not seen each other for about two years, and so it was great to catch up. Chad's wife was expecting a new baby, and he was now the youth pastor of his congregation. He told me he had been invited to a faith debate at the campus of Indiana University, Kokomo. I was very proud of him. My mind raced back to when we were bright eyed young adults praying to [...]

Don’t Buy Potential, Buy As Is

The windshield was oily, making it difficult to see out through the night as I sped through the Canadian countryside. The rhythmic sound of the wiper coupled with the car stereo going at full blast formed an eclectic melody. "Whish Whash Boom!" I had driven 533 miles over 9 hours just to witness the wedding of a dear friend, a good man, Sebastian. To grasp the significance of this, you must consider that I didn't make the paltry 13 mile trip the last time [...]

A Slight Change in Perspective

I get to mow the lawn most Saturday's. I use a small lawn mower, and it takes about 5 hours of my waking time to do a great job with the lawn. And of course, I still have reading to do, I have a post to write, I have a family to raise - complete with homework and the practices. You know them - Soccer, swimming, piano et al. I have lots of messages to respond to as well as visioning to do for the [...]

Anchor Your Soul

To keep fit, I play soccer once or twice a week. Just before I step into the pitch to play, I have a certain doubtful feeling come over me. That maybe today is the day that I will not play well. Maybe today is the day I will fall flat on my face and fail. I have had very successful games over the past few weeks, but maybe today, people will get to see that I am not as good as they thought. This [...]
