Investing for Eternity: How to Invest for Ultimate Kingdom Impact

Whether a person has $100 million, $10 million, $1 million, $100,000, $10,000, $1,000, or less, the principles remain the same. The only difference is the amount of time, prayer, and due diligence required before making a major investment in a ministry, mission organization, or kingdom opportunity. The question is not only, “How much can I give?” The deeper question is: “How can I invest what God has entrusted to me for the greatest eternal impact?”

Griefshare: A Journey Through Grief and Hope

“I am not a grief counselor. I am simply a husband who shared 45 years with my wife Naomi, and who has spent the last eighteen months learning what it means to grieve with hope.” Father, thank You for walking beside us through every season of life, including seasons of loss. Comfort those who are grieving today. Strengthen those who feel lonely, weary, or forgotten. Help us to be compassionate friends who listen well and love faithfully. Thank You for the hope we have through Jesus Christ and for the promise that death is not the end for those who belong to Him. Until the day of reunion, help us trust You, serve You, and find our strength in Your presence. In Jesus' name, Amen.

A Story Still Being Written Naomi and Me

Looking back over our journey, I can truly say that through every chapter—whether joyful or painful—the Lord has remained faithful. AND the story is still being written!

Discover Your Destiny: Finding God’s Purpose for Your Life

What gifts, passions, or experiences has God uniquely given me? Am I pursuing my own agenda or God’s kingdom purposes? What doors might God be opening in this season of life? How might God use my past struggles to help others? What step of faith or obedience is God asking me to take right now? Am I willing to trust God even when I cannot see the full picture?

Purpose: Embracing Your Unique Design in Life

Our lives are not random accidents, but part of God’s greater kingdom plan. We are encouraged as believers to stop defining purpose merely through career success, recognition, or achievement and instead discover purpose through relationship with Jesus Christ. One of the strongest themes in the book is that God often uses even painful seasons—grief, disappointment, waiting, hardship, and uncertainty—to shape spiritual maturity and future ministry. Nothing surrendered to God is wasted.

If You Have Lost a Spouse: What Can You Rely On in Grief?

If you have lost a spouse through death, you know grief changes everything. And if you have not yet experienced that loss, most of us will one day face it with someone we love. In those moments, what can we truly rely on for hope? What does Scripture say about heaven, eternity, and those who have gone before us? These reflections are written from a Christian perspective—centered on those who follow Jesus Christ and understand salvation not as something earned by good works, but received as a free gift of grace through faith in Him. That distinction matters, because many people assume they are “Christian” by moral effort or tradition without ever engaging the deeper question Scripture raises: what does it mean to truly belong to Christ?

Eternity: The Perspective Beyond Our Lives

Most of us spend our lives obsessing over a tiny dot—this brief moment we can see, touch, and control. But what if the dot isn’t the point? What if it’s just the beginning? There’s a line stretching far beyond it—eternity—and every choice we make now echoes into it. We weren’t made to cling to what fades. We were called to invest in what lasts. So the question isn’t just how you’re living today… It’s what your life is adding up to forever. Are you living for the dot—or the line?

The True Message of Easter: Hope, Eternity, and Jesus

Douglas Horton once wrote, “At Easter the veil between time and eternity thins to gossamer.” This poetic phrase captures the profound significance of Easter: it is a moment when the ordinary and the eternal intersect in a way that is delicate, beautiful, and deeply meaningful. Easter isn’t just about the changing of seasons or the renewal of nature; it is the celebration of something far greater—the resurrection of Jesus Christ, the pivotal event that opened the door between humanity and Heaven.

Finding a Job You Can Love: A Christian Perspective

Your job and your faith: The core Christian message in “Finding a Job You Can Love” is that our identity and worth come from Christ—not from our job titles or achievements. Faith in Jesus shapes our motivations, giving us the freedom to pursue work that is meaningful and aligned with God’s purposes. When we trust in Christ, our work becomes a form of worship, and every task—big or small—can be an opportunity to reflect His love and truth. Ultimately, our faith affects how we find, choose, and thrive in jobs we love, inviting us to serve others and honor God in the marketplace.

Fear of the future ?

It’s important to recognize that fears about the future often stem from uncertainties we build up in our own thoughts. By continuously asking ourselves “what if?” and imagining negative outcomes, we can unintentionally allow anxiety to take root. However, when we focus on God’s promises and remember that His perfect love is present with us, we find reassurance and strength. Surrendering our worries to Jesus enables us to experience peace, knowing that His love casts out all fear and empowers us to face whatever lies ahead with confidence and hope.

God: Your Source of Strength and Contentment

Fear of the future? God has divided our time into days and nights so that we can ask for fresh power for each day. When we begin the day with a quiet time with the LORD, it’s like reporting in for duty, getting the strategy for the day, and hooking into power to make each day maximum. Job discovered that the morning stars sing together. We can join in that song.

God Offers Peace Amid Uncertain Times.

Most of us get so tomorrow-oriented that we do not enjoy the present moment. We are preoccupied by what is coming, and we fail to experience what is. We press on in preparation as if some new plan, relationship, or opportunity will make everything different. It is good to plan but not to the point that we miss what God is saying in the difficult or unpleasant thing we may now be living through.
