40 Days Journey

This project was written for one specific church but as time allows I want to adapt it for wider use. Click on the image above for Day 1 of the study.
Development of Local Church Ministries Manual
This is a work in process. I have noticed that many churches have some difficulty in getting their membership involved in ministry. This manual is designed to list opportunities for ministry and give the local church the tools they need to assist members in finding a place of service.

To View the entire outline Please click here If this list inspires you to develop new ministries then I am pleased and we will give God the Glory but please do not just copy my outline and use it. The book will be available soon.
In Remembrance of Me!
This is a work in process.

The celebration of the Lord's Supper is one of two ordinances practiced in the church today. This manual provides many sample creative worship services for use in the church, camps, youth groups, etc.

Advice from a father

In the past few months my life has taken some unexpected twists and turns. It has been a difficult time for me but also on you, my family. As I recovered from surgery I faced days of depression and loneliness but after a few months a new spark of energy emerged and the following is the result.

I have always tried to be the best son, brother, husband and father I could be but realized I could never meet the standard I have set for myself. Instead of focusing on all the ways I have failed or somehow let you down I wanted to share with you some of the things that you can do make your life and if possible your children's life more exciting and meaningful.

The chapters are based on the experiences you have shared with me over the last 50 years. At the time they were probably just experiences but now as look at 50 years of experiences and think about the lives you have in front of you, I wanted to define these moments in a way that give you the best fatherly advice I can give.

I hope you enjoy this effort and whenever possible can use this advice with your kids and other folks around your.

This is my way of letting you know how much I love you and deeply I care for each of you. For the Grandkids that don't yet exist. I want you to know that even though I haven't seen you yet I have loved you since the day your parents were born; more about this later. This is for you as well.
