One person hides while another searches. The objective is simple: find the person hiding. And once we find them, we celebrate. We’re victorious! And the game…

Table for Three: Views from Wall Street

“Good evening. Welcome. Do you have a reservation?” “Yes. Bourdain. Madoff. Table for three.” The hostess glanced at the reservation, then toward the gentlemen standing before her. “Three guests, sir?” “Yes,” he replied. “Right this way.” There is nothing quite like walking into an elegant, world-class restaurant. I have always found myself captivated by these…

The Encounter at Remnant Ministry: Am I Trippin’?
The day was, June 24, 2026. I had an encounter. Or maybe I was just stoned. Though some believe marijuana is a drug, I believe it’s a natural plant which grows from the ground for the benefit of healing; Though, marijuana being considering a drug or a healing plan isn’t the subject up for debate.…

Chopping Wood: The Appraiser
At first, I thought I was still in what Pastor Sarah Jakes Roberts calls the “dangerous prayer.” As discussed in previous blogs, the prayer is this: Father God, Please remove from my life anyone or anything that cannot stand in Your presence.

Intentional Suffering: Until!
Sometimes pride and ego force us into what I like to call intentional suffering. Not suffering God assigned. Not suffering that was unavoidable.
