Father Power! Pt 1
A little girl was talking with her daddy about fear. “Aren’t you afraid of bears, snakes, lightning, or mice?” The dad said, “No, of course not.” The daughter said, “You really aren’t afraid of anything are you Dad, except Mommy?”
Father Power! Pt 2
We may leave our father’s, but our father’s never leave us. They will be in our minds for the rest of our lives. Their voices will keep ringing in our ears, repeating the things we heard him say when we were growing up. The bad thing is that unless we break that cycle, we will reproduce the same thing in our children. We will say the same cutting things and we will do the same damaging acts.
Freedom is Never Free
Many nations set aside a day to remember those who have given their lives to defend freedom. We can thank God for those individuals and their families who have made the ultimate sacrifice. Freedom only comes with a price. There has never been any freedom or liberty without the shedding of blood and great sacrifice.

Blessed Through Obedience
I believe that God longs to bless His children, but often our disobedience stands in the way, as a roadblock, to our ability to be blessed from His holy hand. Today I want to call you to a deeper level of obedience in your relationship with the Lord. It is not about feeling, nor is it without personal cost or sacrifice, but the blessings will come when we obey. I am convinced that God has more for us than we are currently experiencing in our walk with Him. Today I want you to hear the biblical call to go deeper in your relationship with Jesus. The challenge comes from a fishing story that is “tthhiisss biigg!”
Developing a Spiritual Passion Part 1
What do you get excited about? What are you passionate about? Maybe you don’t know. Let me ask it a different way. What do you like to do when you have free time or some extra money? Whatever it is that you want or like to do is most likely your passion. The more you like to do it, the more passion you have for it. For men it may be sports, hunting, fishing, golf, cars, racing, off road, camping, etc. For women it may be shopping, clothes, shoes, appearance. I don’t know? Do you realize that whatever you give yourself to will become your passion?
