Is faith enough? (Mt 8)
Matthew 8 We finished the Sermon on the Mount yesterday here. My original thinking to do a bible study with a focus on Stewardship and Calling was not to go into minute detail, but instead to read a chapter a day and share my reflections on that chapter as it related to Stewardship and Calling. […]
God’s Tithe to Us
In Genesis, God gave us a picture of what was to come. He promised Abraham that even though he was extremely old he would have children and build a nation of people from him and eventually bless the world through him. Abraham waited and got even older. He eventually did have Isaac. God then told […]
Are you wise in Jesus’ eyes? Part II (Mt 7:24-27)
“Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them, may be compared to a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25″And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and yet it did not fall, for it had been founded on […]
“I Will Get You Here”
God really showed me something new last Saturday night and I wanted to carve out this moment to tell you about it. I heard a song that really touched me and gave me some insight into the heart of God. I attended an amazing party that was raising money for Devin & Cathy Garza’s family […]

Are you willing to give your life to Jesus? Part II (Mt 7:21-23)
“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter. 22“Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in […]
Tithes and Offerings
The tithe is one of the most important things we can do to grow and steward our wealth. Yet most people unaccustomed to this practice or new to faith are horrified by the idea. They feel that they don’t have enough to be giving much away; or that if they did, there would be nothing […]
