Welcome back, friends. When we last spoke, I mentioned an antidote, a recipe, or a solution to the dilemma we sometimes face when others seek to demean, diminish, or destroy us with their words and actions. We’ll get to that in a minute, but first I’d like to share some exciting news. You may have…

Choose Me
Today is the first time in a while that I’ve written a Music Monday post, and I’m happy to be back. I’ve missed ministering in this way. While on break, I spent some time following God’s lead and truly listening to his directives about where to go and what to do. When I listen to…
Day 26 – Room for Two
I woke up this morning, and I’m grateful for that. I’m even more grateful that there’s a song in my heart. That’s how I start each day — with music. Whether it’s in my head, my heart, or my playlist, God always plays whatever I need to hear. Do you set the table for your…

Hearing God’s Voice – Part I

Our parents, however, can regale us with stories of how beautifully we spoke at the age of two – communicating in complete sentences – enunciating at a level far more advanced than our peers. Truth be told, we learn everything from…
Sunrise Sermon: Be Extraordinary
One of my favorite sayings is The struggle is real. I sorta smirk every time I hear it or see it as a hashtag. I just want to say, Duh, did you think it was fake, phony, or fictional? Of course it’s real. Everyone struggles from time to time, and that’s to be expected. Take…
