What is a dream? Is a dream really just a state of mind that we all fall into when we are sleeping and  a myriad of images and scenes jump in and out of our subconscious like an episode of Saturday Night Live?

Or is a dream supposed to be something more....

More....

Have you ever felt like there has to be more to life than the mundane, everyday repetition of waking up, going to work/school, coming home, eating, working some more, going to bed and starting it all over the next day?

We all go through this phase at least  once while we are in our twenties. I being in my "ahem" late twenties hit this process about two weeks ago and thought surely there has got to be more than this?

God has more for me then what I am doing right now...

One of my dreams has always been to write a book. Writing has been one of my hobbies since I was a child and I have always been good at it. My dad has even said that he enjoys and appreciates my writing. In my early twenties I used to write about a lot of different things while at airports in between flights. Now since I am married and in ministry I haven't really had as much of a desire to write until two weeks ago. 

God wants me to write for Him...

I want to write. I want  to communicate various Godly principles and promises. I don't know where this is going or what's going to happen, but what I do know is this: I am beginning to live out my dream while following God and learning that He has more for me that what I could have ever imagined. I pray that you would join me on this journey. It's gonna be fun.

In the beginning...

It all started with this: Photo Credit For some of us this was the scariest moment of our lives. Putting our hearts out on the line, hoping like crazy that the girl would check yes. Dating used to be so simple... We would pen this innocent note, get the response back from the girl and if she checked yes,  you would hang out with her on the black top, push her on a swing and if she was real special you would share your handi-snacks cheese and crackers with her... Today? Not so much. Now we are acting like we are married even though we aren't. Dating has gone from being something that was so simple to something that has no boundaries at all. What happened to the fun days of playing in the jungle gym? Or skating together at the skating rink? Why is is that now we have become so careless in our relationships that we are breaking every rule that there is out there? Men, It's time to re-invent the dating scene... Notice that I used the word men, instead of g

Race and Prejudice...

(The following post was originally written on May 23rd, 2014. I am transferring it over here from my previous blog site.) Photo Credit For the past few weeks, racial issues have commanded the forefront of our media headlines. From the issues of the owner of the NBA's Los Angeles Clippers Donald Sterlings derogatory comments about the African-American community and specifically Ervin "Magic" Johnson to Dallas Maverick's Owner and Entrepreneur Mark Cuban stating his view, "I mean, we're all prejudiced in one way or another. If I see a black kid in a hoodie and it's late at night, I'm walking to the other side of the street. And if on that side of the street, there's a guy that has tattoos all over his face -- white guy, bald head, tattoos everywhere -- I'm walking back to the other side of the street. And the list goes on of stereotypes that we all live up to and are fearful of. So in my businesses, I try not to be hypocritical. I kno

Man Card...

I am a huge fan of musicals... There is something about the music, lyrics, acting, dancing, and story line that always have me on the edge of my seat. Last week my wife and I went to go see the movie Le Misérables. It was outstanding. If you haven't seen it yet I want to encourage you to go as soon as possible. My wife and I both enjoyed the film and yes, I cried about three times while watching the movie. The next day I shared with my friends as well as some of my students my feelings about the movie and some of them made comments such as: "That movie is for girls, Where's your man card, and that movie was one of the most boring movies ever." (that last statement came from a 17 year old) While I'd like to consider myself to be pretty tough skinned about stuff like this, their comments had me thinking especially the one about the man card. So I thought to myself, what is a man card? What does having a man card give me access to? But more importantly
