One morning when I was in St. Louis, my son, Austin, called me all the way from Florida. He was burning MAD! Apparently, our car was full of ANTS because his sister, Ashtyn, had left food inside! OH BOY…here we go!!! I already had a plateful of problems of my…
People walk up to Nicole, all the time, and say how glad they are to meet the FIRST LADY. (The First Lady of FaithChurch.com.) I always say, “That’s not the first lady… the first lady LEFT me! This is the SECOND lady!” The first lady left me because I was…
One night, our 14-year-old daughter, Ashtyn, jumped in bed and parked herself right between us. (Parents, you know how it is!) I was just about to fall asleep when Nicole said she thought she heard someone in our house! I kinda brushed it off, at first. There’s nobody here. It’s no…
Remember when you were 16 years old? You knew everything…RIGHT? I remember washing and waxing my car, getting myself ready on a Saturday night. I used to drive up and down South Lindbergh, in St. Louis, because I knew that’s where all the good-looking girls were. In 1985, we called…
One morning, when I was riding my bicycle in West Palm, I passed this guy with his fishing pole in the water. As I rode by, he called out. “Good morning!” I thought, “What is YOUR deal? I’ve got a LOT of stuff to do today!” But, I felt the…
A while back, we hired a contractor to do some work on our condo. (That’s our home when we preach in Florida.) I always warn people to BEWARE! A lot of the time, a contractor is just a CON with a tractor. 🙂 Well, this guy started our project in…
Whenever we travel, we always take our little 2-pound dog, Luppy, with us. We have a nice bag that’s made especially for her to ride in. I don’t mind, but I’m the one who usually gets stuck carrying it. The only problem is…. it’s HOT PINK! And I understand why…
You’re stronger than you think you are. You’re smarter than you think you are. You’re better looking than you think you are. Do you realize how much authority you have? There is a reason the devil is afraid of you. Jesus Sends The Devil Running. So Can You In the…
Have you ever been in a relationship where you didn’t ever fight with the other person? Even once? It could be your parents, siblings, best friend, boyfriend, girlfriend, or spouse. James 4:1 reads, what causes fights and quarrels among you? Don’t they come from your desires that battle within you?…
The Bible says, let the redeemed of the Lord say so. So many people have outward conditions that cause them to think they can’t approach God or proclaim the promises of God as their own. Whatever it is, your situation is not taking God by surprise. He knows about it,…
When we are consistent, there is a miracle that kicks in called faithfulness. The Bible says the faithful person will abound in the blessing. When you stick with the job long enough. When you stick with the relationship long enough. When you stick with the church long enough. Faithful describes…
We need to start overestimating what we can do in a year and underestimate what we can do in ten years. The ten does not matter if we can’t stick with the plan for the one. This choice isn’t something that begins in January. Start now. We know what needs…
