Matthew 7:13-14 “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only few find it.” During my career as a high school and college basketball player I…

Smart as a tree…
Hebrews 12:1 “Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses to the life of faith, let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily hinders our progress. And let us run with endurance the race that God has set before us.” The other day…
The Divine Blocker
Last night our beloved Ohio State Buckeyes opened with a dominating win over Marshall. I’ve always been a Buckeye fan but I especially enjoy watching them when they have someone on the team I feel a connection to.  Over the past 4 years our family has been rooting and pulling for Brandon Saine, the versatile…
Replacing Stupid with Christ
Galatians 2:20 “I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me…” The other day I was talking with a group of Christians and shared with them the fact that accepting Jesus would indeed save their souls but it would not save them from “stupid.” I got a mixed…
No Turning Back
 “Don’t you realize that in a race everyone runs, but only one person gets the prize? So run to win! All athletes are disciplined in their training. They do it to win a prize that will fade away, but we do it for an eternal prize. So I run with a purpose in every…

Integrity to self…
1 Chronicles 29:17 “I know my God that you test the heart and are pleased with integrity.” (NIV) Have you ever heard this phrase; “It is better to have an enemy who keeps his word than a friend who does not?” Ever since I got sober I’ve tried my best to have solid integrity. There…
Choose Greatness by Choosing GOD instead of the World
John 16:33, “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” This Friday I will be speaking to a hundred or so Covington 5th and 6th graders and high school students at the Annual Covington…
Eternal Freedom
“Now the Lord is the Spirit and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.” 2 Corinthians 3:17 (NIV) I can remember many years ago when I was immersed in my life as an alcoholic and addict. I would have these brief moments where I knew what I was doing was wrong and…
the MOMENT
On the final night when Jesus was betrayed and taken to be put to death he knew he had all the power he needed in order to stop what was about to happen but he didn’t. He said to his father, “Now my heart is troubled, and what shall I say? ‘Father save me from…
