Go Ahead…CRY!
These last few days I’ve been studying paradoxes throughout the Bible. We’ll be teaching a four-part series on paradoxes in the months to come. Can’t wait! I love how paradoxes work in the Kingdom. When engaged, paradoxes cause us to flow in God’s river and not the...
Shock Jock Jesus
The message of the Kingdom of God has always been and will forever be difficult to swallow. The ways of God’s kingdom are contrary and opposing to our nature. That’s why Jesus had to be the greatest “shock jock” of all time. A shock jock is generally a speaker whose...
Managing Paradoxes
For me, the most difficult thing to do in ministry is managing the paradoxes of the kingdom. A paradox is an illogical contradiction. It’s a statement, proposition, or situation that seems to be absurd or incongruous. The Bible is full of them. The reason being...
Prerequisites for Requisites
There are many requisites in life that require prerequisites. A requisite is a necessary and appropriate component for a specific purpose. For example, walking is a requisite for living. Although many people have lived successful lives without walking, their...

Called an Audible!
It appears that this Sunday I’m calling an audible. And for those that don’t understand what that means, allow me to explain. "Calling an audible" is a sport term that means changing the play on the spot. Our plan or “play” was to begin an in-depth series on...
Devotion
As a leader of a congregation, one of the easiest and dangerous things to do is fall into the trap of monotony and repetitiveness. Our human nature is naturally inclined to move towards ritualistic and mechanical behavior. We have a tendency to create our own...
Stay Thirsty My Friends
“As long as you're alive, you will never graduate!” I still remember these words spoken by Dr Richardson. I was sitting in the Doctrine of the Holy Spirit class at Southeastern University in 1990. I was taken back when I first heard this and rightly so, for it was...
