We witness remorse, selfish concern, and the gradual ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 2,243 views

    Satan’s schemes are many and we as God’s children should be aware of them. Also, we need the right people who will guide and counsel us to walk in the right path and avoid the traps that the enemy sets for us.

  • Stretched Thin

     | 106 views

    I wrote this in Aug 2009 when I didn't know what was next. It turns out that the Lord allowed me to graduate with a doctorate in counseling and work full-time as a Federal prison chaplain for 12 years.

    As I start my fifteenth year of ministry, I realize I have been stretched thin. I started as a missionary in Youth With A Mission, ministering in the USA, Europe, Asia, and Africa for two years. I burned out, trying to “save the world” myself. I then went to seminary, getting a foundation for ...read more

    (Facing the Giants—This sermon would probably lend itself well to the clip where Coach Taylor is talking to the team and says, “It means we’ve got to give Him our best in every area. And if we win, we praise Him; and if we lose, we praise Him. Either way,
