Background Check In | After the Storm

After the Storm We need, others need help during the storm. But don't forget to check in on people after the storm, after a parole denial, after a break up letter, after a death in the family. And don't forget to ask for help after your storm. It's ok to do that.  Have a great week. 

Background Check In | GREEN MEANS GO!

GREEN MEANS GO! The only thing I hate more than sitting at a red light, is sitting behind someone who isn't paying attention at a green light.  When you are the first person at a red light, you are the leader when the light turns green. If you don't answer the call to go when you have the green light, you hold so many others up behind you from answering their GO.  So go when God gives you the green light to talk to someone, give, write a book (me), teach a class, or whatever He's giving you the green light for.    Have a great week.

Make a List Lists are all throughout the Bible, in fact, the Bible is a list itself. List of names of God, principles to live by, so many lists.  Jesus gave the disciples of list of things to do and not do as He sent them out.  I made a list of what I wanted in a future wife one day.  Dream boards, vision boards, are fancy lists.  I have a to do list for today, and for the week.  Make a list today.

EP 134 ”Testifying in Austin, Christian Politicians Rant, and Shout Outs to EWOP” with Jay Dan Gumm

Show Summary "Testifying in Austin, Christian Politicians Rant, and Shout Outs to EWOP" In this episode I give shout outs to the ladies of the Empowering Women Out of Prison program at the Coleman unit in Lockhart, TX. I was on this unit for a year and nine months back in 2004-2006 back when it was half male and half female. Now it’s all female. EWOP is to the female population what PEP is to the men. It’s incredible to listen to the ideas these women come up with. In this episode I give them some praise. I also talk about my time testifying at our state’s capitol in Austin. I’ve been wanting to get some things off my heart’s chest.
