THE LIABILITY OF THE LIMBO

A very popular old school party game is the Limbo. The game is innocent enough, you simply have two friends hold a stick, play some crazy type polka music and have people walk under the bar with the expression of, “How low can you go?” I became curious with this game and looked in the GuinnessContinueContinue reading “THE LIABILITY OF THE LIMBO”

HOW TO REBUILD YOUR LIFE

I don’t normally quote Mike Tyson, but in advance of his 1988 boxing match with Michael Spinks he was told that Spinks had stated that he had a plan to beat Mike Tyson. Tyson responded by saying, “Everybody has a plan until they get hit.” Tyson won the fight by knocking Spinks out in 91 seconds.ContinueContinue reading “HOW TO REBUILD YOUR LIFE”

DAILY DISCIPLESHIP PLAN

Do you operate on empty or from a full tank? Have you ever been in a “drought” season of your life or ministry? How do you prepare yourself in the lean times? I recently went through a stretch where nothing was happening in my ministry. I was not on a church staff, had a very thinContinueContinue reading “DAILY DISCIPLESHIP PLAN”

Okay, I understand that today on October 6th, 2015 I am titling this post, “My Booklist of 2014.” This is not a typo.

KEEP SHOOTING – 200TH POST

On November 11th, 2014 against the Memphis Grizzlies, Kobe Bryant set the NBA dubious record of the most MISSED field goals in league history. 13,297 times Bryant shot the ball . . . and missed. Now, I am not a Kobe Bryant fan, but over time I have learned to respect his game. It takesContinueContinue reading “KEEP SHOOTING – 200TH POST”

THRIVING WITH PARENTS

 Previously we talked about “surviving parents.” The term “surviving parents” denotes that we are playing defense and that we are merely “surviving” the situation. However, in ministry and in life I prefer to go on the offense. The focus of this post is to “thrive” with parents. I believe it is possible due to my pastContinueContinue reading “THRIVING WITH PARENTS”
