God’s Kingdom

Most of us desire to create our empires and kingdoms to make ourselves more comfortable, right?.

  • Waiting for the green light

    We wait for many things. People, results, and good health are a few common examples.

  • The Present is Now

    I’ve written previously about time from a perplexed place questioning its concept. I simply wondered how it applied to and impacted the lives of others.

  • Brian Houston - Hillsong – a different path

    My view is to take the reader on a different path.

  • “I am a woman trapped in a man’s body”

    If you were living 100 years ago and heard this statement, you would likely say that the person has a problem with their mind. Their mind needs to be brought back into line with their body.
