You are a preacher! Maybe not with your mouth all the time like me, but as a believer in Christ, your life is a living sermon.

Ask God to fill your mouth with the words you need to say today. No issue is so small that it doesn't require God's wisdom.

One of the best gifts we can give ourselves is time alone with God.

Love listens to the other person and searches for clues on ways to serve, bless and lift up that person.

I think happiness is a goal all of us can agree on. Let's face it - we all would like to be happy.

God has blessed me in many ways. Money is not the greatest blessing you can have, but I literally had absolutely nothing. The first message that I preached at Life in the Word, I had to borrow a suit from my pastor's wife, because I didn't have any decent clothes, and I was driving a 20-year-old car. We went through a lot of years of having nothing, sleeping in McDonald's parking lots, because we didn't have money to stay all night in a hotel. But, like anybody else who works hard and is diligent and doesn't quit and doesn't give up, there is a day the blessings come.

The absence of pain means death, so when something no longer bothers you, you've died to that thing.
