Much of my writing has been influenced by the life and work of numerous Christian authors and ministers. Individuals such as Charles Spurgeon, Howard Carter, D.L. Moody, Dr. Vernon McGee, to name a few.
I love almost anything gospel. As long as there is a clear expression of Christian thought, doctrine, and practice, the style of music does not matter.

Story telling is an age-old tradition used to teach lessons. Stories are sometimes referred to as myths, fables, riddles, epics, and the like.

The Mystery of the Thorn - Understanding the Purpose of the Thorn in the Flesh (2009)
In this book, we will explore the mystery of the thorn in the flesh. Paul stated that God had given him a thorn in his flesh in order to keep him humble because of the revelation that was in his life. However, there has been much controversy over what the thorn in his flesh was, and how God could allow such a thing to exist. In addition, there are Christians claiming that certain afflictions in their lives are a thorn in the flesh, when they may not be. Therefore, we will endeavor in this book to bring understanding to these concerns and discover what impact this has upon the believer today.

For the Perfecting of the Saints - Exploring the Ministries of the Pastor and of the Teacher (2006)
The scriptures reveal that God has set ministries and gifts in the Church. The ministries of the apostle and the prophet provided the foundation for the Church. However, their ministries alone could not advance the Church. Thus, God set other ministries within the Church; namely, the pastor and the teacher. These ministries are important for the equipping and maturing of the saints. In the pages of this book, we will discuss the ministries of the pastor and of the teacher in detail. A proper understanding of these ministries will help individuals recognize and appreciate their functionality in the Church.
No Other Foundation - Exploring the Apostolic and Prophetic Anointings (2006)
Controversy over the gifts and ministries of the Spirit has abounded for centuries. Various scholars have taught that there was a cessation of the gifts and ministries. More specifically, they affirm that the ministries of the Apostle and Prophet are no longer in operation nor valid. In this book, we will bring clarity to the roles of the apostles and prophets in the New Testament Church. In addition, we will explain with simplicity the apostolic and the prophetic anointing. It is our prayer that believers will recognize the operation of them in their lives and in the lives of others. We can be confident that God is still using His people in these last days.
Out of Egypt Into Canaan - Forgetting the Failures of the Past: Pressing towards the Promises of God (2006)
How do you handle your failures? Do you allow them to paralyze your personal growth and happiness? Or, do you learn from them? The Bible contains numerous accounts of individuals who failed in their relationship with Him. Yet, this did not prevent them from doing great things for Him. Throughout the pages of this book, we will examine the failures and ultimate successes of biblical characters. Their examples provide hope and strength for the Christian today.
The Call to Worship: Understanding the True Essence of Worship (2006)
The Christian's worship of God transcends the gathering together in churches. It extends into everyday life. The call to worship is not only for religious ceremonies and for assemblies, but it also has to characterize the believer's lifestyle and existence.

Through the examination of biblical and religious terminology, a proper understanding of the believer's Call to Worship is established.
The Word was Made Flesh: The Principles of Christ versus The Personality of Christ (2006)

Angels of Deception - Recognizing False Ministers (2005)
In this publication, we will explore the subject of false ministers. Jesus said that many would come in His name. As Christians, we need to be able to identify false ministers.

When God Says NO - Understanding the Fatherhood of God (2005)
In the pages of this book, we want to explore reasons why God's answer to us is not always right in our eyes. We will examine causes for the Lord denying the request of our hearts.

This will lead us to a greater understanding of the Fatherhood of God in the life of the believer.
