When you see that sunset or that panoramic view of God's finest expressed in nature, and the beauty just takes your breath away, remember it is just a glimpse of the real thing that awaits you in heaven.

You know, it is not God's desire to conceal but to reveal. The word revelation means "unveiling."

We are supposed to share the gospel. So, I believe it can actually be a sinful thing to not do it.

I take it very seriously when I take the pulpit. That I'm representing God.

God will test you because He wants you to mature. He wants you to develop a walk with Him that is not based on your fluctuating emotions, but on your commitment to Him as you learn to walk by faith.

The Bible says that in the last days, there will be people in our churches who are not true believers, among other things. Because of watered-down messages and compromise, people will feel comfortable in certain churches because they are never confronted with their sin. I believe my job as a pastor is to comfort the afflicted and to afflict the comfortable.

It is going to get worse before it gets better.
