In case you hadn’t noticed I added a new category above: Mentoring. Recently I started meeting -in person- a wonderful young lady we’ll call T. She was a freshman in one of my on campus Bible studies way back in the day. I’m talkin’ 2004, y’all. She’s a beautiful soul. Additionally, I am also beginning […]
Yesterday, I shared how I need my blog to be different. Per my promise, today is pt. 2 in which, I hope I can explain why being a writer can kiss my bootay. One of the biggest revelations I had on my bloggy hiatus was this: I don’t want to be a full time writer. […]

This morning I was trolling through an old journal and I found an interesting entry I wrote this past February. At the time, I was attending a Spiritual Formation retreat with […]
Back in 1996, at the ripe impressionable age of 19 I went to a large missions conference with 19,000 other college & University students from across the globe. One night, a speaker named T.V.
