You Need Hope When…

It’s been well said that hope never goes out of style. Who doesn’t need hope? I’ll bet you wonder about that at times. Because all of us sure need it. You even wonder what it would be like to not need hope. While all may need hope, some are in desperate need of it. What’s […]

Are You Selling Yourself Short?

Anyone who has ever played basketball has dreamed of dunking the ball. But for people like me, who tend to suffer from height challenges along with reduced jumping abilities, it’s out of reach. The basket, that is. But I can jump high enough to touch the bottom of the net. Granted, that’s over a foot away from […]

6 Types of Wisdom to Pray For

Your Divine D.E.S.I.G.N.

One of life’s recurring questions is “What should I be doing with my life?”. Perhaps a better question is “How has God designed me?”. What if we looked at our makeup from six vantage points? That is, what if we could discern in a practical way how God made us? Let’s take a closer look […]

The KEY to Ultimate Influence in 2015 and Beyond

It’s been over fifty years now since my grandmother told me Bible stories from the book of Daniel. After my grandfather passed away, she lived with us for a while in the lower level of our split-level house just outside of Tyson’s Corner, VA. You have probably heard of “Daniel and the Lion’s Den.” Or […]
