Karate is for life, not points.

I may be doomed to the stake and the fire, or to the scaffold tree, but it is not in me to falter if I can promote the work of emancipation.

Church should be a place where love is evident, God delivers, lives are changed, hearts are healed, and families restored.

Leadership is building a bridge that connects the vision with the purpose, in order to empower those who are around us.

Karate is not about winning over others. It is about winning over one's self. Ultimately, the most challenging opponents we face reside from within - our hang-ups, our insecurities, our prejudices. Overcome these and you will have truly won.

Lord, please give me big ears and a thoughtful mind. Teach me to ask well and see it through other’s eyes.

Now, I ask you, had you not rather be killed than to be a slave to a tyrant, who takes the life of your mother, wife, and dear little children? Look upon your mother, wife and children, and answer God Almighty; and believe this, that it is no more harm for you to kill a man who is trying to kill you, than it is for you to take a drink of water when thirsty.
