Much of life is spent in the middle of the storms. Those who are untethered from an anchor that holds will be tossed about. But those that know the promises of God will be held fast. Peter challenges us to hold fast to the promise, enjoy the blessings, and not get the two mixed up. Continue reading

Philippians 4 – The Unconquerable Man: Cultivating the Mindset
An unconquerable spirit is not something that “just happens”, it is something that is cultivated through a mindset that prepares both body and soul for the day of adversity.

Philippians 3 – The Unconquerable Man: Rejoice in the Lord
Is it possible to know joy and happiness in the midst of suffering? God’s command given through Paul to rejoice always seems impossible at best and cruel at worst. Furthermore, it has often been quoted in the most unhelpful of ways as people expect joyful people to be smiling people and thus struggle squaring being Continue reading

Philippians 2 – The Unconquerable Man: Cultivating Oneness the Catalyst for an Unconquerable Spirit
The New Testament writers spill a lot of ink calling, exhorting, encouraging, and commanding the people of God to pursue oneness in God. What the people of God have in Christ crosses all cultural, ethnic, contextual, national, and economic barriers. The people of God are one and as we cultivate that unity in Christ we Continue reading

Those who are Christ’s should be able to face all of life’s uncertainties with the joyful confidence that one thing never changes. That you are Christ’s, and He is yours.

1 John 4:7-5:5 – That You May Know Love
Love is something that everyone desires yet many find it hard to define. As followers of Christ our definition and concept of love must come from scripture. It is a constant struggle to let scripture define what love is rather than accepting the definitions the world comes up with. Fortunately, we have an example of Continue reading
Ministry Goals
It is my desire to serve in a local church
body where I can help train up men and
women into mature Christian leaders. I
have a heart and passion for discipleship and seeing believers grow in their
knowledge of Scripture and faithful
application of Biblical principles in day
to day living.
I desire to reach the hurting and those
struggling through the difficulties of
living in a fallen world. I love to see
individual church members grow in
being able to care for one another and
minister the word according to the
needs of the moment.
Nothing excites me more than seeing it
“click” when someone understands how
the Bible fits together and speaks into
their life.
