One of the things that I really have to watch for in my life is when I get a ton of affirmation from what I am doing. I can easily get the big head. You see, I am not a hero. I put my pants on in the morning just like everyone else. I still have demons that I struggle with just like you. People always want to put other people on pedestals. Our heroes of the Christian faith are authors, pastors and … [Read more...]
Hard Decisions
December 13, 2011 By 4 Comments
When you start making hard decisions people are not always going to be happy with you. I don’t know of anyone that enjoys forced change. We would all like to think for the most part we are in control of our lives, but if you are like me trying to please everyone can sometimes be your own worst enemy when moving forward. There are times in life that you must put on your big boy pants, make hard … [Read more...]

One of the ways to learn how to be the best at something is to listen to those who have gone before you and already blazed the trail, so today I am taking a play out of the playbook of someone who I admire from a distance, Michael Hyatt. I read his blogs religiously, and his advice on blogging and life is usually fantastic. One of the things he recommends is going back through your blog and … [Read more...]

Someone asked me the other day what does Eyes of the Heart mean to you? I think they were probably referring to the ministry itself, but that wasn’t the answer they got. I decided to explain to everyone that reads this blog why I do what I do, and what Eyes of the Heart means to me. Eyes of the Heart is not a business, but we need donations to survive. Eyes of the Heart is not just a … [Read more...]

It has been a crazy three weeks for me. I have been working on moving my blog from a Wordpress hosted blog to a self hosted blog. I have combined my blog with our website, and made a bunch of changes to the identity of Eyes of the Heart. Eyes of the Heart started off as a counseling/discipleship ministry with a small office in Mississippi that helped a very limited amount of people. There are … [Read more...]
WHERE IS MY BOOK?
June 29, 2011 By 14 Comments
I wanted to write a blog today about sex, but I can’t because someone didn’t return my book, A Celebration of Sex by Dr. Douglas Rosenau. That really ticks me off! I wanted to talk about the joys of sex today, but instead you will have to listen to me rant. I give away and lend a lot of books each year. I bet I give somewhere between a 100 and 500 books away each year. I have done it for … [Read more...]
