After some 15 years, I still remember some amazing words given to me from my master teacher while completing certification in Life Coaching.  He stressed the idea that we should always pay attention to circumstances given to us, in that these very circumstances are God’s way of drawing our attention to our own “challenges.”  He…

While in Florida, I witnessed a little girl crying uncontrollably.  She was yelling and screaming because her parents wanted her to stop playing so that they could all eat dinner.  Even though they tried to remind her about her hunger, she wouldn’t listen, because she wanted “to play.” She didn’t even notice that the rest…

This last week, I was visiting a group of high school students in Castle Valley, Utah. My assignment was to get them ready for their upcoming concert tour, through rehearsals, private lessons, and spiritual talks in the evening.  For me, I didn’t think twice about what I would teach when it came to voice.  Though…

Come, and let us return to the LORD; For He has torn, but He will heal us; He has stricken, but He will bind us up. After two days He will revive us; On the third day, He will raise us up, That we may live in His sight.  Hosea 6:1-2 As our present world…

Last week, I confronted myself and asked, “Why should I help out at Mid-Valley Fellowship?”  The resounding answer shocked me a bit, but also woke me up to a distinct directive, “Because I asked you and you are willing.”  From that moment forward, Yahweh has instilled a new kind of awesome fear into my life,…
