As I think about what it means to be grateful, I am reminded of how much I look past what I have, and tend to dwell on the things that are yet to come. If I only see what might be, I may miss a great blessing that is only available today.I am committing myself […]

There is a hymn that, to my knowledge, I have never sung, but is entitled Thanksgiving/Thanks-living.  It has caught my attention on many occasions because of the quirky nature of the title.  I have red through the lyrics a couple of times, and am impressed by the last line of each verse. “All the words […]

While I was feeding my son this morning, I had to heat a little more formula (because he’s a growing boy…wonder where he gets that).  In the mean time, my son started to suck on his hand.  When the formula was ready, I had a hard time getting him to move his hand and start […]

Media being what it is today, it would be easy to miss this.  I’m glad that I was directed to this video by a good friend.  I pray that you are excited and inspired by it, and that you are able to see that the precepts of Checklist Jesus are not centered around me, but […]

In the October 27th issue of the Levelland and Hockley County News-Press, I found a front page article and photo telling our local community about Checklist Jesus.

As many of you know, I have been working on a book entitled Checklist Jesus. It has been a 2 year journey toward my Lord Jesus Christ, and has been the most fulfilling ministry endeavour of my life. I am pleased to say that the project is finished and that the book will be available […]

Time is the hardest thing to endure because it is the only part of our existence that we have no ability to adjust. We sleep time away, procrastinate our duties, then gripe when we don’t have the time left to fulfill our responsabilities. It is better to make progress each day, than to work toward […]

Tonight I’m talking through a passage that displays how the Lord Jesus surrounded himself with people he cared for, right before he encountered the cross.  It is interesting to me that we tend to face trials of many kinds by secluding ourselves completely.  However, hours before Jesus hung on the cross for our sins, he […]
