• So You Want To Change The World?

  I believe most of us are wired with a goal of doing something really big with our lives. Write a book. Get our name on a building. Develop something new. Make a mark on the world.  Do something really big. Big goals are great. They stretch us. They make us see over the horizon. As…

• The Power Of Your Story

    Yesterday, we visited a women drug and alcohol rehab center in Alajualita to minister to the women at the center. Kathy had been there many times, but this was my first visit.

• The F Word

  When I was in high school I remember sitting frozen by the phone thinking about all the things that could go wrong. Would I be rejected?   Would she laugh at me?   Would she make me feel foolish?   Would everyone hear about it and think I was crazy? Was I overstepping my boundaries?…
