Counterfeit Preacher: Why Critics Can't Disqualify You From God's Calling
If you are someone who had a colorful past and has been told that you are disqualified from ministry and feel discounted by the church, this episode is for you. 2 Corinthians 5:17 tells us that our old self is dead and gone as we step into a new identity in Christ, so pick your head up, ignore the noise, and focus on the cross. Critics cannot disqualify you from what God has called you to. Take every thought captive as you walk in your purpose and trust that God’s plans will never lack His provision.
Why I Stopped Posting Shirtless Devotionals
Part of spiritual formation is developing both biblical understanding and a definitive level of self-awareness.

I hope that you enjoy this honest, open, transparent conversation about my journey as I grow in my relationship with Jesus.
