  • Let’s talk politics…

    Actually… Let’s not. You know why? Because someone will be on the wrong side of my opinion and as a pastor, it is not my job to divide, but to unite. How do you unite people in their political preferences and political differences? You dont. Let me explain… I see pastors and leaders being more…

  • Been a minute…

    Hello readers! I realized it has been a good while since I published anything, so here it is… An update of thoughts and things even thought we have a hurricane headed our way! About that… be prepared. In whatever way that is for you, just prepare. This will not be a Katrina, but it will…

  • Writing a book…

    I have begun to write a book on and off for the past 10-15 years. I started one, called “Shift Happens.” Stopped that one after about 10 chapters because I couldn’t keep up with the amount of “shift”. Read that as you may. I started another one, along the same lines about 6 months ago.…

  • Narcissism and Divisiveness

    Next weekend, at Collective Church, I will be teaching a message that I have titled “The Enemy’s plan for our demise.” We are going to discuss tactics that the enemy actually uses to get us divided and out of unity with family, friends, co-workers and even church family.

    I have been saying for months, even maybe over a year now, that The Church is in major transition. There have been alot of “seasons” and “transitions” through the years, but I believe this particular one is unique in that it is being sifted and shaken more than it is being empowered and established. It…

  • Things I have learned from a political campaign:

    First of all, I am relieved! Majorly relieved! A good man won the seat and I can focus on leading Collective Church solely! Remember, I got in this race only because it was thought that there wasn’t going to be anyone else running. So what lessons have I learned from this experience the past 8…

  • “Post-truth Culture”

    We are in what is called a “Post-Truth Culture”. What that means is that “truth” is in the eyes of the beholder. Whatever people want to be “truth” is their “truth”. Regardless of actual reality or absolute truth. Folks can post things on social media and say things that are not even close to being…

  • Where have the men gone?

    Just in my lifetime, what has shifted with culture has been alarming. We are in the middle of a pandemic with Covid cases increasing in drastic numbers, Christians can’t get along with one another, social media bullies are everywhere, and men are becoming girls. There… I said it. I see pastors on social media and…
