I live in State College Pa, land of humanism, cynicism and skepticism. Don’t get me wrong, I love it here but this can be a tough place when dealing with the ideology’s and philosophies of what makes some one good. I’m a preacher it’s what I do. I love to communicate the goodness of God [...]

So there is nothing better than someone who’s been knocked down, beat up, left hopeless, getting back up on their feet again.

Disappointment is usually a regular event in my life. Mainly because I’m an eternal optimist and just can’t seem to believe that things aren’t going to work out in my favor. Some times I wish I was more pessimistic then maybe I would be a little more even keeled in how I view life. I will [...]

“Then David and all the men with him took hold of their clothes And tore them. They mourned and wept and fasted till evening for Saul and his Son Jonathan.”
