One Prayer: LifeChurch.tv

Pray.
Faith.
For the kingdom of God and for His will to be done?
Done.
One Prayer.
I hate to interrupt the flow of my testimony but I had to post this up.  This is way too good especially when you have churches pulling together and join together and believing that God’s will to be done.

One Year Ago, You Can Barely Hear Me Breathe As The Chains Tightened Around My Neck

I now live with my grandmother at the age of 12.
Wow, I am going to church on a regular basis.
Wow, I get an allowance of $2.50 per week and all you want is some chores done? Done.
During those previous 7 years of hell, I was the only one being sexually abused while only 4 of [...]

One Year Ago, It Doesn’t Matter How I Grew Up

Parents divorced when I was 5. I haven’t seen my real mom since. I was left to the care of a drunken violent abusive sumbitch and his sweet saintly mom.That grandmother hasn’t never ceased her prayers for me even to this day.
For the record she never stopped praying for that sumbitch father of mine either.
I [...]

Illegal Immigrants, Part 2: Timeless Word of God

Caught this little jewel of an article, entitled “Indefinite Detention? That’ll Set Those Damned Kids Straight” from a local Dallas paper called The Dallas Observer. Richardson is a suburb that sits not 10 minutes from downtown Dallas (that is if Central Expressway had zero traffic). Really, this makes me proud to be in North Texas. [...]

Heart Of The Father, Part 3

Read:
Mom, Are You Crying Again then Holding Worship.
You see that man holding up that other man to worship our Almighty God. One brother carrying another brother to worship and praise the King of Kings and Lord of Lords… the only One who is even remotely worthy of our praise.
They praised the One who is Perfect.
The [...]

Prayer for Churches

I would love to pray for all churches everywhere. It is not about the numbers but if this weekend, if one person is saved, then it is all worth it.
My list of churches that I am praying over because in some way, they have blessed me:

Gateway Church, Southlake, TX
Bethesda Community Church, Fort Worth, TX
Shiloh Institutional [...]

Selling A Bunch Of Crap Called Gospel

I feel about Prosperity gospel in the same way John Piper does. When I talk about it, I start cussing. When John speaks about it, he does it with a whole lot less cussing.
Thank God.

Jeremiah 13:17 But if you will not hear it, My soul will weep in secret for your pride; My eyes will [...]

Shameless Plug: Gateway Worship’s “Wake Up The World”

My shameless plug would be about the church I call home and where I am called to serve, Gateway Church in Southlake, Texas.More importantly than that, I would be absolutely remiss if did not mention anything about our worship team.
Because of Gateway Worship and Gateway as a whole, I truly understand what worship is all [...]

How Did Jesus Prevent Women From Falling In Love With Him: A Follow-Up

Funny. There is this thing called the Bible. You know, the Word of God. If I read, it might have answers in it like:

Isaiah 53:2 (NKJV) For He shall grow up before Him as a tender plant, And as a root out of dry ground. He has no form or comeliness; And when we see [...]
