“How do we get to the next level?” is a question that I hear along the way, usually from younger men who are hungry to see God work in their church and city and who have a genuine desire to see many people saved. It is a valid question, and I always appreciate and applaud…
Thank you to all who read my recent blog post on Racism, Baptists, and the NFL Here is a quote about racism that I saw today and it was a blessing to me. It is a bit lengthy, but I hope you enjoy it. “Separate but equal is a concept long ago rejected in jurisprudence –…
By now, you likely have read more articles and heard more debate about the NFL kneeling debacle than you care to handle! Are they right? Are they wrong? Should we boycott? Should we just ignore the whole mess? And so forth! While there are many issues surrounding this matter, one of them is certainly a…
I love Christian Camps, and have spoken in camps every year since God allowed me to enter the ministry as an evangelist!
