Coke-a-cola swapped their iconic logo with over 1,000 of the most popular names so you could "Share a Coke" with friends or loved ones. My wife came up with a creative prayer idea. Every time she gets a diet coke, she picks a bottle of a name she recognizes and then prays for that person. My wife sharedContinue reading "SHARE A PRAYER"

GAMING TOOL - SPOT MARKERS One of my favorite gaming tools is “spot markers.” These are anything that you can place on the floor for students to stand on. I use ‘floppy fliers’ that I purchased from Wal-mart for 99 cents apiece. I have also gone to carpet stores and had them donate carpet squares.Continue reading "MY NEIGHBOR"
3) THE WHEAT AND TARES
Matthew 13:24 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field: 25.

Ecclesiastes 9:10 is my "ministry life verse." In this passage we find four very specific types of hands that every leader must have in order toContinue reading "THE POWER OF YOUR HANDS"
1) THE PARABLE OF THE MUSTARD SEED
Our English word “parable” is a transliteration of the Greek parabole (pronounced para-bow-LAY) which simply means “to place beside, to cast alongside.” A parable, then, is a story that places one thing beside another for the purpose of teaching. It puts the known next to the unknown so that we may learn. When Jesus said, “The kingdomContinue reading "1) THE PARABLE OF THE MUSTARD SEED"
