My Father’s Day weekend began with me visiting a car show in Medford, Oregon. Six hundred cars of all makes and models were on display. When I go to car shows, I always look for a 57 Chevy, my first car. I saw a few 57’s at the show and they were all impeccably...
The Lord is getting ready to “knee” us in the gut of our understanding so He can cinch up the saddle of our comprehension of reality. He will do this so our interpretation is secure as we enter an unpredictable future. Here is a quick video about what I am feeling:...
You may feel disconnected from what you have known and even disconnected from the voice of God. There is a solution to that dilemma. The connection you desire is not always one you can make on your own. At some point in our lives, all of us will need to ask for...
This morning, Jan shared a dream with me she had last night. In the dream, we were running and laughing with joy across a frozen lake. As soon as Jan finished describing the dream, I saw something in the Spirit. Some of you are facing an impossible...
Yesterday, I received an early Father’s Day gift from my daughter, Anna. It was a mortar and pestle from Bali. Since I enjoy cooking this gift really blessed me. In the bowl of the mortar shown in the photograph are the herbs, garlic cloves and olive oil that I would...

The fulfillment of prophetic words spoken hundreds and even thousands of years ago are arriving at this moment in history. These words were spoken in a distant time and place intended for delivery at this time in our lives. The prophets who uttered these words had no...
Run your race of faith with integrity. The finish line is still a long way off. You will be rewarded for your obedience even though the natural odds are stacked against you. What seems obvious at this stage in the race will not be the final outcome. God is...
Learn the difference between obligation and discernment. Obligation can have you tied to things you need to let go of in order to make this transition. Discernment will invite you to see the new thing God has planned and will give you permission to let go of the past...
Today, Jan and I were lying in bed in the early morning darkness having a conversation. During our conversation, we heard a voice speak to us from somewhere in our bedroom. It was Siri, the robotic voice on Jan’s iPhone. Siri said, “Hmm…I don’t know what that...
When Jan and I moved to southern Oregon 20 years ago, we spent our days off driving around the area looking for a home to purchase. In our initial search, we found a nice home on some acreage in the hills. While talking with the owner everything seemed well planned...
Very little in this life is what we call “either-or”. I used to be either-or in my younger days while still in the early stages of spiritual maturity. I thought strongly proclaiming my side of an issue and drawing lines in the sand was the mark of a spiritually...
