Stewarding God’s blessings

Have you ever had the strange experience of working really hard towards a particular goal in order to achieve a certain outcome or obtain a certain prize, only to discover that upon receiving the fruit of your labor, you weren’t quite sure how to handle it or what to do next? Have you ever been [...]

A revelation of things present

Since the latter part of October, I have been strangely silent on this blog without giving an explanation why. It hasn’t been for lack of news or insight, but rather a need for privacy. This is still necessary to a large extent, but I have been given the liberty and opportunity to share with you [...]

God is filled to overflowing with joy!

Editor’s Note: I wrote this last Friday… Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our Lord: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the Lord is your strength. Nehemiah 8:10 [...]

First immersion in a spiritual atmosphere

Heard about this synchroblog over at robbymac asking about people’s first encounters with the Holy Spirit. What a great idea! Let me share mine with you…. In late 2004, I went on a physical diet as well as a spiritual diet. You can read more about the genesis of that in my testimony. I was [...]

Chewing the fat

I thought it’d be fun to write a conversational post about all the stuff I’ve been doing and thinking about lately. I always like it with other blog authors open up about their personal lives, so I figure I shouldn’t be an exception. Enjoy. Hey there. Nice to see ya. Glad we could have a [...]

We dood it!

Yesterday Grace Fellowship put on an afternoon Christmas Festival in the sanctuary, and I think it was quite a lot of fun and fairly successful for a first-time endeavor! We moved most of the chairs out of the way and set up some different “booths” right there in the church: crafts, balloon art, and face [...]

Mysterious

Well, I’m not sure what’s going on. The really cool thing I wanted to share with you is that on Saturday, I started feeling really awful, and it seemed that I’d picked up the flu that the rest of my family had already gotten. (I live in my own place, but we intermingle regularly!) Well, [...]

In a state to bless

One thing that’s struck me as I’ve been down here at the Doing Business Supernaturally conference put on by Extreme Prophetic is that so many people I’ve met are in a state to bless me. Notice I didn’t say “state of blessing”. I think sometimes we focus way too much on trying to be in [...]

God puts me in the mood for art

I’ve been on an interesting journey over the past few months as I’ve started playing regularly on the worship team for my church. In the past, I was always someone who played music and was a Christian, but only recently have I begun to play music because I’m a Christian. In other words, I’m learning [...]

Churches blessing churches

I had the most incredible experience last night. A local church in Santa Rosa invited our church to come enjoy an evening of worship and fellowship, so a number of us trekked across town to join in on the festivities. Since I’m on the worship team, I was extremely privileged to play music not only [...]
