ON COMMON GROUND

Over the last 5.5 years, we have traveled the USA, Canada and Alaska, going where the Lord told us to go with my business paying our way, with the exception of a small amount of donations. We’ve experienced many miracles in the journey and lots of divine appointments when we arrived at our destinations. We mainly stayed in Hilton brand hotels over the last four years, giving us Diamond Status for those four years. We’ve seen a lot and experienced a great deal more. It’s one thing to turn on the news to see what’s going on, it’s another to be there in some of it. Believe me, the actual sometimes has little to do with what’s reported. Even in the churches, there’s a lot being said about those on the outside that’s simply not true in many cases. If we are ever to make any kind of long-lasting difference in our generation, we’re going to have to refocus. ON COMMON GROUND…

Building A City

There was once a wealthy man who wanted to build a city for his workers to honor, care for, and to protect them. His workers had built many elegant and strategic projects for him, so he wanted to help them have a place of their own to rest and have fun without fearing the raiding parties of evil that lurked in the surrounding mountains. At various times of the year, the raiding parties would sweep down out of the mountains and do much damage to the area cities and harm the people. Building a city…

Eliminating Fear

Fear is the destroyer of dreams and everything good and eliminating fear is of utmost priority. Out of it comes all kinds of evil, greed, murder, envy, jealousy, hate, etc. These are all born out of fear. True Love conquers all fear, but how do you get it? How can one overcome the fear in their life to live the dreams they were destined for? It’s a journey…

Taking Advantage Of Every Opportunity

This year has been one of many twists and turns, up and down in some uncharted territory. As each door closed and pretty much hit us in the face as it did, another opened, but not what we were hoping for. The entertainment business and ministry can be difficult just on their own, but mix them together in outreach and it can get really complicated, quickly. Folks have their own opinions about ministry, but adding entertainment to it, and some just freak out.

TO THE TOP

It’s not the prevailing circumstances that necessarily define a person, rather, it’s what they do in/through it. Tough times come on all, but some press through and overcome, while some give up. Storms only last for a while. If all we can do is hold on through it, that can be enough. Sometimes we get the benefit of walking with others through the storm. No matter the company or not, we must set our face to the wind and by His grace we can endure it. Many want to know who this God is, but unless we embrace the hard times, needing His help, perhaps we won’t know. It’s through the hard and seemingly impossible times that I discovered more about who He is, than in the easy times. Just a thought or two. Blessings in your journey.

The Clown

I wrote a song, THE CLOWN, on December 24, 1993 about the wearing of masks. When I get back into the studio, it’s one of the songs I’m going to record. Have you ever walked into a park where a clown was performing? Depending on what the clown was doing, folks laughed or cried, nonetheless, there was usually a message to the act. After we walk away though, all we remember was the act, but had no clue as to who the clown really was.

Valleys And Mountains

I am thankful for the mountain tops of success and abundance, but I’ve also grown to like the valleys somewhat. They are the necessary journey that prepares us for the tops. They strengthen us and protect us because the valley not only shows us where we are, but where those around us are as well.

Janiece and I have walked in abundance and lack in seasons of our life over the years. It’s amazing that those who support you and don’t in each season. Paul, in Philippians 4:10-14, shows that he found sufficiency in Christ regardless in which situation he was, yet many, and most of these in Christendom, would have us believe that if we aren’t successful in their eyes, we must be doing something wrong. Yet, every work I’ve seen that has lasting effect starts from a humble place. Many, even in the world, lost everything before gaining what they have now, called success.

Changing Lives

Sometimes a praise report can change everything, especially for us today. When we left Atlanta on the 1st, we knew we needed to head west, possibly California to get medical testing for Janiece. When we entered Texas, we got a call to pray for a friend in a coma in San Antonio. Most of you have read that post and prayed with us. This morning we got a call saying our friend is out of ICU, is responsive, has taken the “do not resuscitate” status off, and is saying she knows the Lord still has work for her to do. We are beyond thankful and so honored the Lord would send us to help. We know we weren’t the only ones praying, but I know the words He had me declare over her in that state made a huge difference and you are part of that. Suicide avoided and another dream of His has a chance to be fulfilled along with the rest of us in His Kingdom. This is why we go, even for one. I just wanted to share this to encourage those of you who are praying with us and you who are helping to support us financially. You are so appreciated.

So it seems that Easter is on April 1 this coming year. Going to be interesting, just saying.

I was looking at the Calendar to set up some bookings around the country this year. Looking at Nebraska, Oklahoma, Kansas, and possibly surrounding states (Colorado & Arkansas, etc?) for later in April and early May. Florida and area in February or March or possibly Arizona & New Mexico and area in January & February. Just throwing some things out there in case some of you live in those areas. We have some connections in these areas, but would love to have more to help us get the word out there. Read more
