"Uniting Christian & Jewish Clergy from Around the World"

I must confess that today’s blog post has been very difficult for me to produce in that, deep in my heart, I am grieving for the modern Church as a religious institution within our culture and the insidious inner-church dysfunction that is very destructive and evil. Noticeably, the most recent disclosure of the sexual abuse that now is within the Protestant and Evangelical denominations.…

Sharing in The Master’s Happiness
If by some very unique way I was able to transport myself back to the spring of 33 A.D., to ask this Jewish Rabbi from Nazareth a question or two, exactly what is it that I would ask Him? What would be my most important thoughts or real life, pressing personal crises that would drive me to seek after Him as He and His selected disciples were making their way from Bethany, to celebrate the High Holy Day of Passover in…

The Master having all authority over all things invites the disciples to consider one of the most revolutionary spiritual new norm of greatness within the Kingdom of God. He examines their hearts and motives in an effort to communicate to them and all other disciples to follow, that greatness, preeminence and a sense of importance come by humility and service.…

Learning to Bridle those Cravings that Divide Our Hearts
Whether you are a faithful follower of The Messiah or not, each human being throughout their respective life journey will have one or more deep-seated “heart desires” that at times, until actualized, may interfere or deny an individual, deeper spiritual walk in one’s faith.…

Within the short span of less than a week, I have witnessed up and in person, the very extreme warring fraction between two of this life’s greatest events, the gift of living in this life and fear and uncertainty of death of life as we know it. In my spiritual reflective time over the last two days, my concern and focus were redirected to what the very essence of this blog post wishes to communicate, just how do we successfully navigate between our living and our…

For me, there really is not any other clearer depiction of where to find God! God is never far off, for where ever there is harm and danger, where ever there is tension between life and death, God is with us, as He places Himself in harm’s way, suffering with us while simultaneously liberating us toward wholeness and spiritual emancipation
Please consider my recent blog post, "His Name will be…

Thou feeble servant willfully, yields to Thee, as I seek much-needed refuge and Your blessed assurance that where I am now in my life, it is not my will that has brought me to this point, but it is only by Thou will, direction, and purpose!

Two of my greatest spiritual experiences that I have still continue to yield life-changing results in my life on a regular basis. The first is God offering and then granting me soul salvation, and the second is God’s unconditional love for me as I continue to work out my soul salvation moment by moment.
Please consider my latest blog post: The Only True Love is Absolute.…

Excerpt from my latest blog post: "Open Prayer and Love Letter to the Beloved Community."
Be forever reminded that as Saints, each of us have a spiritually endowed character that is being forged each day by God, as we are separated by His grace, with the very best of our Father’s will working externally and internally on our behalf; for we are His workmanship, God and only God has the ultimate responsibility to complete the work within each of us who remain faithful and obedient…
