Television, Compact Disks, Radio, and other media outlets have become a very loud noise in our homes these days. Trying to find a quiet place in our homes to read [...]

Have you ever heard a traffic news update that reported everything but the traffic? More than likely not. These reporters have one job when they step into the cockpit of that chopper and that is to report the traffic, if they did anything else we’d be a little upset wouldn’t we? We want them [...]

We’ve all heard the commercials on the radio. Some person is acting as if the car, grill, microwave, or well you fill in the blank. They act as if this item is the best thing that has ever happened to them. Boasting about how it’s changed their life, when in reality, it’s just another object. [...]

Well, I’ve been to some flea markets myself, and I have purchased my share of useless stuff. In fact many of us have. That’s what garage sales are for right? Getting rid of all those things that we purchased on a whim? Well let me ask you, are you wondering around the world as if [...]

This is a Video of when I spoke at Praise Chapel in Downey California. It’s pretty funny, while at the same time the message really makes you think about the way that you live your life. Are we living to build up a Kingdom of our own on this earth? Or are we striving and [...]

We’ve all had to pose for a picture at one time or another; a wedding photo, a school photo, a mugshot-well hopefully not a mugshot but I think you get the idea. We strike our best pose, and let out our best smile, showing our best side, hoping that the camera will magnify our best facial [...]

I’ve often noticed people in the community complaining about everything and anything, in fact, complaining seems to be a major topic for most peoples discussion doesn’t it? So [...]

How much time do you spend on Twitter, MySpace, and Facebook? Did you know that the average person spends 5 minutes of every hour on a social network? 5 Minutes! That’s 2 Hours a day on a social network, meanwhile we have most of our population that claims that they just don’t have enough time [...]

In our day to day lives it’s easy to joke and even pass off some intense circumstances with a joke, or funny comment. But I’ve noticed that this joking can also play into our spiritual lives as well, and my friend if you, or someone you know doesn’t know Jesus, there’s nothing funny about it. So [...]

Have you ever tried to reach God in a more intimate way but didn’t know how? Have you perused the aisles of your local book store, looking for a new and in depth method of prayer and worship in an effort to get Gods attention? Maybe you’ve even gone to the extents of learning to Yodel [...]

I always wondered what an airline flight would be like without the food carts. What if the Plane took off, and left the food cart on the airport tarmac? Would it be chaos? Would there be screaming? Who knows, every flight that I’ve been on has always been nicely stocked with sodas, coffee, and enough [...]

We’ve all heard of the many times that men and women have been left standing at the wedding altar and walking away without their hopeful marriage. I have even heard of people getting cold feet as they were reciting their vows, and suddenly backing out of the wedding altogether. This leaves their fience’ with crushed [...]

Have you ever listened to those talk radio programs? You know the ones; these shows that take telephone calls from people who are desperately wanting to have their voices heard when all the while, there problems are left unsolved.

Have you ever waited in line to go on a Roller Coaster for hours, only to find that you got sick afterwards? Up and down, loop de loops, and finally you think to yourself “I should have just went on the Carousel”. Yes the Rollercoaster can be a scary and sickening adventure but there is [...]

Have you ever met someone who appeared to be a Godly person. Somebody who stood upright, and stood out from amongst the world. Sure you’ve see them as they’ve carried their Bible into Church, spoke with a tamed toungue, and appeared to carry the virtue of love; the kind of person you’ve desired to be. However [...]

Have you ever found yourself to be in a Restaurant, ready to say grace while that specific prayer time gets continuously interrupted?
