In celebration of the one year anniversary of my book launch, I will send you a free book!
Look at my excitement in the video from last year!
Ten years ago, being a published author was just pipe dream. And being an accomplished artist seemed next to impossible. However, God has great plans for me. He has great plans for you too. . .. .

Yes, I realize there will be editing and rewriting to do. But the rough draft is complete! I was amazed at how quickly it came together after all my false starts. When God calls you to something, He really does provide!

Read MoreFinish the Book!
Loyal Friends and Followers,
I am taking a short break from posting . . . to Finish the Book!
God has had a book on my heart, and I have started writing it several time over the last few years. However, the book was still incubating in my heart and mind. Finally, the season to write has arrived! God has lit a fire in my bones; each morning I can’t wait to get in front of the computer to write!! I am delighted to share with you that I am halfway through the writing phase!
When I return to posting in 4 weeks, I hope to report that the writing is finished. Since this is my first book, I don’t know how long the publishing process takes. But I hope to have the book available for Christmas next year.
The book is a devotional on our identity in Christ from the book of Ephesians. It is designed primarily as a personal devotional, but I am including questions so that it can be used in small groups as well. I appreciate any prayer support you are willing to lend.
May He bless you with His favor!
Read MoreThe Language of Sonship
The nation of Israel coward in fear when God’s voice thundered from Mount Sinai. They wanted Moses to be their mediator. So throughout the whole Old Testament, instead of speaking directly, God spoke through His prophets. The nation of Israel had to piece together what God was trying to communicate to them through the prophetic acts and words of the prophets.
These days, God has a new way of communicating . . . .
Read MoreLavish Love
My favorite chapter in scripture for the last few years has been Ephesians 1. It is a list of the spiritual blessings that God has lavished on us who are “in Christ.”
I love that word: lavish! It points to the unbelievable richness of the blessings . . .

I am Yahweh, Creator of all. I alone stretched out the canvas of the cosmos. . . . Isaiah 44:24 TPT
I’m still musing on bearing the image of God. . . .
Read MoreImage Bearers
God created His beloved humans in His image and His likeness (Genesis 1:26). We bear the image of God. We belong to Him. We are His coin, to spend as He chooses. . . .
Read MoreIdentity is Critical
Identity is critical for living the victorious Christian life. Our identity in Christ defines who we are. Our identity in Christ empowers us to minister.
Jesus needed three things before He could minister to others (see Luke 3:21-22). And we need those same three things before we can minister: . . .

Armed with only a tiny bottle of anointing oil and our knowledge of the Word, my girlfriend and I spiritual cleansed her house. People had reported seeing “entities” in her house. We wanted to make certain that the only spirits living there were of the Holy Spirit. . . .
Read MoreThe Beautiful Temple
A deep longing for God throbs throughout this poetic song. The “beautiful temple” that the psalmist praised was an actual building. The building was grand in size and ornamentation, but that is not why he praised it. The “beautiful temple” represented the “Beautiful One.” To the Old Testament believer, the “beautiful temple” was the very presence of God.
Fires of sacrifices and offerings (passion for God) burned 24/7, . . .
