Want to be more fruitful? Fruitfulness is the natural outcome of healthy fruit trees and believers. It’s how we glorify God and demonstrate that we are disciples of Christ. So of course we want to be fruitful. Recently, I talked with you about “What it mean to follow Jesus.” Jesus describes the qualifications in Matthew […]
Is perfectionism stopping you? Perfectionism is not your friend! I want to show you something. It’s only a tiny square of one of Vincent Van Gogh’s earliest works. If you’re expecting to see the polished, flawless perfection of Gerret Willemsz Heda ( who painstakingly smooths all the tracks of his works; then you’ll be dissappointed. […]
What do you do when things don’t happen the way you wanted them? We can make some great plans, but sometimes they just don’t work out… Sometimes the plans change and you’re forced to take a detour! Let me tell you about one of my detours. Not another detour! All three lanes on the interstate […]
