Words Are Cheap

I’m sure you heard the expression, “Actions speak louder than words”. Well, it’s true, it does. This is something I strongly believe in.

It’s Not About Us

“Pure and genuine religion in the sight of God the Father means caring for orphans and widows in their distress and refusing to let the world corrupt you.” James 1:27 I remember when I first read the above bible verse. It was as if the words jumped up from off the page and hit me […]

People tell me I’m passionate about Jesus and the things of God. And they are right. I simply can’t help myself. He is my passion. So much so, I am willing to follow Him, even if it means saying goodbye to what is familiar. Which is what I did this weekend, after much prayer. All […]
