Read more "You’ve voted. Now what?"As the long awaited chill greeting us in the mornings this week reminds us how seasons change, I am reminded of how God leads us through seasons in life.

Read more "How are YOU making a difference post Florence?"I met some sailors today who literally spend weeks, if not months at sea. That makes experiences on land pretty few and far between. As the young crewman led my friend and me on a tour of their ship today, he was so excited to show off the bridge, the galley and his cabin. My […]

Read more "We won’t do missions anymore"You have not met a more passionate gent than planter Wayne Lee. With offices in the Mondawmin Mall, and worship services at Frederick Douglas High School, Christian Liberty Church has seen over 100 come to Christ in just a few years. That is understandable with the energy that Lee exudes. From the moment we stepped […]
Read more "Passion Much?"A few weeks ago I had the honor of meeting church planter Steven Foster. This musician and worship leader has an amazing heart for the Lord and for the people of Glen-Burnie, Md., an upscale suburb of Baltimore and the struggling neighborhood of Cherry Hill. B3 Church strives to “be the difference” as they […]
Read more "Worship Leader Plants Church "As we pulled out of the Walmart parking lot in Nashville, NC Wednesday afternoon, I had no idea the caliber of men I was honored to ride with. Over the hours which passed like minutes I listened to Adam Muhtaseb share his heart, vision and personal story. To hear this former Muslim dream about what God […]
