61 pounds and counting!!!

I now weigh 175 lbs. That means I have lost 61 lbs since mid August. Wow! It hasn't been a hard road either, it just required discipline and some accountability. My wife was the accountability, and the discipline was through a online Weight Watchers plan. I will let you know when I hit my goal of 170 lbs. If you need help or a plan, talk to me I'll be glad to get you going in the right direction.

The X-odus Files

"The X-odus Files: Following God in an Alien Land" by Reg Cox & Rick Brown has been such an enjoyable read. However I must admit it was not always easy to accept its message. I was challenged over and over again by its ideals and over all message. Even though it can be humbling, I love to be given a fresh view of God's word. Too often my ministry is wandering though maintenance church agenda, when in reality we are called to be warriors with a ministry that has purpose and an already secured victory.
