    Can a prayer move the heart of God?

    Recently, my 7-year-old grandson Alonso told me that his daddy, my son, carries around a lot of money in his pocket. I asked him how much and he told me: $1,200! He turned to me, “Papa, how much do you carry in your pocket?” I said, “$20” and he replied, “That is so sad.” Sometimes we act like ...read more

    Jesus is coming again. I’m more sure of this that water being wet and dirt being dry. Jesus is coming again. Stay alert. Stay awake.

    This a three-month long study of just one week in the life of Jesus. The power of this week lies in all that happened. And it deserves both retelling and a careful scrutiny.

    How did Paul respond to his critics ... ? ... Paul "... said, but we proclaim Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles" (I Cor.1:23 NRSV). The true gospel of Jesus Christ removes all crutches that people use to prop up their pretentiousness!

    PERSEVERING CRACKPOTS Text: II Corinthians 4:5 - 12, 2 Corinthians 4:5-12  For we do not proclaim ourselves; we proclaim Jesus Christ as Lord and ourselves as your slaves for Jesus' sake.  (6)  For it is the God who said, "Let light shine out of darkness," who has ...read more

    Instead of running from Holy Spirit fire and God’s plan and purpose for our lives, we need to start running towards the flames to get set ablaze. First we’ll look at what Holy Spirit fire does, and then the benefits it provides for our lives.

    Do we serve in excellence? Or do we go through the motions in church as usual. Daniel was a man of excellence service because he served a God of Excellent deliverance.

Believe me, I’m not a slob. At least, not a professional slob. Sure I’ve left my fair share of dirty laundry lying around ...read more
