Einstein is quoted as having said, “If I had an hour to solve a problem I'd spend 55 minutes thinking about the problem and five minutes thinking about solutions.” The point he makes is important: preparation has great value to problem solving. Einstein knew that problems are full of clues to their own successful solution. Sometimes we can not see those clues, because the problem is too large, staring us in our face, and enveloping our every-thought. That's when we need the set of 'fresh eyes' from others. In this book I've taken hundreds of quotes from my notes over the past four ...

I've traveled around the world for years and years now, interacting with thousands of people and, consistently, I find there are about eleven questions I'm continually asked.

Quentin needs to put it all behind him, enough of the pity brigade. What better way to do just that than by jumping into Sorrowsong, the greatest MMO that ever existed, that's now available in true VR? But there’s always a catch, or more like a big flaw, unless you consider a mind-reading quest-giver to be a minor glitch. Now the QG is in his head, rooting up memories that are best left buried. The game is playing Quentin.

In chapter 24 of Matthew’s Gospel we are told that when Jesus returns to call His church away, things here on earth will be just like they were during the days of Noah. You ask, “How were things”? Well… people were eating and drinking and going about ‘business as usual’. Crime was high, violence filled the land, and people were greedy. There were wars, famines, pandemics, and earthquakes. Does that seem to resemble today, or what? Is a trumpet about to sound? You decide.

Senior Adults, age 65 and over, are the fastest growing segment of our population today, and will continue to be for the next 20 years. These senior citizens are healthier, better educated, living longer, and more financially stable than ever before, for the most part. They have lots to offer our churches and our communities, and they WANT to give of their time, talents and treasures. Let's not forsake them, or forget about them.

Two thousand years ago Jesus laid the foundation for His church, and for over three years He instructed His disciples in the fundamentals and mission the church should follow. In the ensuing years since then, His church has encountered much opposition and persecution from endemics, societal leaders, cultures, religions, and more. As of this writing His church is once again encountering global oppression caused by the Covid-19 Pandemic, which has caused church doors to be closed, and has interrupted worship on several levels. Nevertheless, it is His church, and He has assured us that the ...

A rudimentary definition of a disciple is a follower or adherent of a teacher – and in the ancient biblical world a disciple would actively imitate both the life and the teachings of the teacher. In what is known today as the Great Commission of the church, when Jesus was asking His followers to, “Go and make disciples of all nations”, He was asking His disciples, “to go and ‘actively imitate both the life and the teaching’ that I have shared with you, to others.” With that in mind, it appears the Christian’s assignment today is to aggressively and persuasively share with ...

God created us as a tripartite, having a body, soul and spirit; but most importantly He created us to be relational – with Him, and with others. In His Great Commission, found in Matthew 28, He instructed us to “Go Make Disciples”; and the best way to do that is not in the ‘rows’ of churches, but in the complementing ‘circles’ of Small Group Ministries within and outside of the church. This book is designed to introduce you to the Who, What, When, Where, Why and How of Small Group Ministries – starting with the WHY. Whether you are just forming your Small Group Ministry, or ...

Surely the disciples must have been in shock after hearing of the horrendous things that Jesus told them would happen. I can picture them silently sitting staring at each other in disbelief. As Jesus sat on the hillside of the Mount of Olives, His disciples went to Him and asked: "When will these things happen?" Jesus told them that first there would be wars, famines, diseases, epidemics, deceptions, lawlessness and more. To them these things must have been unimaginable and horrific events. Then He said, "These things are only the beginning of the pains you will feel." Without a doubt we ...
