Back to the Beginning

Back to the Beginning? “Jeff, didn’t you mean “Back To The Future?” Nope. This fall 2018, God is saying it’s time to go – back to the beginning. Oh, I love the Back To The Future franchise. And I could watch Marty McFly and Doc all weekend long! But I am somewhat captivated by – […]

Enjoy The Ride

“Enjoy the ride!” When it comes to trusting God, sometimes that is all you can tell someone. Last August, some good friends said exactly that about trusting God in our future plans. I attended a reunion/prayer retreat in Council Bluffs, IA – the brainchild of my good friend Shun Lee Fong – Principle Creative / […]

You Are Weak…

We have these convos every day about Christians we know who are really weak: “Oh did you hear the news about so-and-so?!” “Are you kidding me? How could so-and-so do this-and-that?” “I know! I think we better spread the news about so-and-so!” Well… okay not really. It’s not exactly that obvious. Or, is it? Of […]

Are You A “Great Christian?”

I know, this is a hard one to answer. Most ministers would say “Why yes I am a Great Christian!” And then, upon request for the reason for their enthusiastic reply they might say “Because I’m a pastor!” or “I am a Christian author!” or “I have 30,000 Twitter followers” or “Because I have an […]

Transformed?

[sgmb id=”1″]Everyone is talking about “transformation” these days. Ah, but can you blame them? It’s like, a really awesome concept – something mundane (like a caterpillar) can transform into a beautiful butterfly! Yes indeed. And so now we all want to become more beautiful, more successful, more powerful, more famous, more popular, more socialized. But […]

Stripped

“You’ve been STRIPPED!” Okay, we never really hear this aloud. We might have occasion sometime in our lives to hear “You’ve been Punk’d!” But you probably will never hear “You’ve been stripped!” Yet, the chances are much greater that you will experience this once, if not several times in your life. I’m thinking today about […]

This Crazy Church World

Good morning! I have a little rant to share with y’all. (originally posted in a Facebook Page) I hope this is for you. I hope it edifies you. If not, I hope it amuses you, he he: There are two great TENSIONS throughout church history, that I see. I think we all see, experience and […]

Rolling With The Changes

Hello there! It’s sure been an amazing November here in Minnesota. I was watching a video excerpt of some tourists observing a huge glacier in Alaska as it broke apart and began slowly rolling around! Don’t have a clip of it. Sorry but it was a massive and amazing sight. I think my life is […]
