Yesterday was the 20th anniversary of one of the most important days of my life. On October 5, 1991, Theresa and I said “I do and I will”! In honor of that day 20 years ago, we spent the entire day together just having fun. We reflected on the past 20 years. We looked at old [...]

Faith is…

Posted in Economy, Money, Prayer on December 7, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

What does the word faith mean to you? We tend to use this word loosely, don’t we? But what does faith really mean? The Bible give us a clear definition: Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. Hebrews 11:1 Every December, our faith at WorkMatters gets tested [...]

Six Years Since No Paycheck

Posted in Calling, Money on October 14, 2009 | 2 Comments »

Six years ago yesterday, I spent my first day on the WorkMatters payroll. Actually, the truth is, as the first employee of WorkMatters I was not getting paid… You see, we had this issue. This fledgling marketplace ministry was flourishing.

Then on Friday night, I witnessed something that truly amazed [...]

Day 13 – Money (more or less)

Posted in 31 Days of Proverbs and Prayer, Economy, Money on July 12, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

One man pretends to be rich, yet has nothing; another pretends to be poor, yet has great wealth. A man’s riches may ransom his life, but a poor man hears no threat. Dishonest money dwindles away, but he who gathers money little by little makes it grow.   Proverbs 13:7, 8, 11         [...]
