Hanging out with Newport Harbor High School

This was a great day thanks to Chad of Fellowship for Christian Athletes. I enjoyed sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ with campus Christians at Newport Harbor High School. I’d like to say thanks to Jonathan, it was great meeting you (and you don’t look like Jimmy Hendrix!).

Seems like we all easily identify with disappointment and let-downs. It then becomes easier and easier to mask our pain in anger, rage, pride and numerous addictions. Jesus Christ reminded us that many will come looking for a sign -- something they can see and touch and weigh and measure and test. Yet, isn’t it funny that in spite of all the tests a person sees or all they see, NOTHING in the end will satisfy their heart.

Only Jesus Christ can satisfy the true needs of the human soul. It’s no mistake you read this message, so I will say it again .... ONLY JESUS CHRIST can satisfy YOUR SOUL. What have you been running from? Hiding behind? Hoping nobody finds out about you? You need the Lord Jesus Christ in your heart and life right now. Just confess you are lost without Him and need Him to save you right now. Simply ask Him to come into your heart and make your life right with Him and with others. Ask Him to forgive you of everything that keeps you in bondage and in darkness. If you just did this and you actually meant it, YOU ARE A CHILD OF GOD!

You need to find a Bible Teaching Church immediately and start growing in your new faith. I also want you to contact me via EMAIL (click my email button below), and let me know your new decision and I would like to pray with you and for you. Be encouraged -- Jesus love you and so do I.

Your friend,

Don't tell Mama!

What would you dare not tell mama? What deep, dark secret are you holding onto that you would never consider sharing with anyone .... unless they were a complete stranger where alcohol, drunkeness, sex, drugs and partying go on through every hour of the day! Where is this party you ask .... It's Lake Havasu City, Arizona during SPRING BREAK!

Imagine this .... 20,000 or more college students partying like it's 1999, half dressed, drunk as a skunk, and experimenting with everything under the sun; then along comes the Word of God in your face, in your heart, in your life in such a way that you cannot escape it!

Can you imagine College Students coming to Jesus Christ in mass -- Only God knows! You better tell mama, Jesus is coming and He's speaking through Out of Egypt Ministries.

Serving Him,

Worst day of my life?

Today has to be one of the worst days of my life. What does a person do when they are truly caught between a rock and a hard place? What hope is there in this world that could possibly make sense to the point of understanding and acceptance?

There are times in life when each of us will be faced with what appears to be an incredibly impossible situation! At first it's easy to say, "I didn't ask for this!". Interestingly enough, NOBODY is exempt from this promise that trials will come and they will undoubtly come often.

It's never easy when you attempt to solve a situation that you were never intended to solve. Somehow, deep inside us all is this unbelievable appetite for "handling a situation" .... maybe in someway it can be tied to our "HERO" mentality. Independence away from God will always lead to disaster--better yet your personal foundation in an active relationship with God will always lead you through trial.

It's funny how in just about every trial, we swear that this is "The BIG one!". Reminds me of Fred Sanford (Redd Fox) from the old 1970's sitcom "Sanford & Son". Fredd used to always fake a heart-attack and swear, "This is the Big one, I coming to see you hunny!".

Maybe, some of you, like me today are experiencing an unbeleivably impossible situation that you cannot possibly rationalize or solve. You've analyzed every angle and counter-attacked every aspect of your delima and it all seems like a total loss. Let me encourage you as I also minister to myself ... the bible reminds us in Romans 8:28 "And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose" (NKJV).

What exactly does this mean? Many people can and will use this scripture in a way that may come across as spiritual manipulation by falsely cheering up the listner in hopes they will simply "shake it off" and "snap into a SlimJim". Bottom line, when I'm in the middle of a "hell storm" like today; it's easy to be distracted by all the perceptions, anger & bitterness, failing others, etc. I don't always know what to pray for or even how to pray, but I can rest assured that the Holy Spirit of God is constantly making intersession for me and will ultimately make clear the Lords will and purpose for me in His perfect time.

More than ever today I rest in knowing that my out-of-control situation is working together for good under the direction of my Lord Jesus Christ in that He is constantly conforming me into His likeness. It never feels good when I'm thrust into a situation that I didn't expect or stretch muscles that I haven't used in a long time, but trials are necessary for shaping us and our faith. I'm convinced that if we never experienced trials--we would never pray!
