NEW Forward By Faith Resource Page

“For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.” (2 Timothy 1:7 KJV)

As we slowly try to navigate our way through this “new normal” during the pandemic, it’s understandable to feel worried, nervous, afraid and a mix of other emotions about these uncertain times. But you don’t have to be frozen in fear or paralyzed by panic.

This transition time can be a great opportunity to choose faith over fear and trust God every step of the way.

It’s an honor and privilege to help build and deepen your faith in God.  I’m delighted to invite you to check out the NEW Forward By Faith Resource Page at AboundingFaith.com.

My prayer is that the tools and resources listed on the Forward By Faith page will help spur you on as you continue to walk by faith and live your God-given dreams! May this new season be a fresh start for you and filled with God’s love, joy, peace, courage and boldness!

Be sure to share the link with others who may need an extra dose of faith, hope and love.

Stay well. Choose faith over fear. Move Forward By Faith. Blessings 🙏

Teaching the Abounding Faith Online Class at the NYSB in June

I’m thrilled to announce that I will once again be teaching a summer class at the New York School of the Bible (NYSB). The Abounding Faith: Choosing Faith Over Fear class will be an online course taught on the following Monday nights: June, 1, 8, 15 and 22.

Ladies and Gents, I hope you will join me for this timely class that will help fuel your faith. You can take the Abounding Faith class from the comfort of your own home, no matter what state you’re in.

Join me for this powerful time of fortifying our faith by delving into God’s Word and discussing God’s awesome track record for coming through for His people.

Here is the course description:

As Christians, we are called to walk by faith and not by sight.  Many times that is easier said than done, especially during this trying time we are facing.  In this class, we will look at the lives of various Heroes of Faith from the Bible and examine how their faith in God was tested and thus learn how God came through for them in their greatest time of need.  The insights we glean from their experiences will help to equip and empower you to trust God’s faithfulness no matter what challenges or obstacles you may face.  This course is designed to fuel your faith for without faith, it is impossible to please God.

Registration should open today. Please click here for more information.

I’m honored to be part of the NYSB’s faculty. It’s such a blessing to get to teach this course that is based on my second book, Abounding Faith: 30 Bible Heroes Who Will Inspire You to Believe God for the Impossible! 

It’s a joy to inspire others in their faith.

God is Good!

Please tell others about this empowering and faith-igniting class.

Thanks for your prayers and support and thanks for staying on this faith adventure with me.

Stay well. Stay encouraged. Choose faith over fear 🙏

Happy 5 Anniversary to Waiting on God Well Book

It’s the 5th Anniversary of my very first book Waiting on God Well 🎉

I’m grateful to all my wonderful Readers! I love hearing how this book has blessed ministry leaders and men and women waiting for breakthrough in their personal and professional lives. Waiting on God Well has encouraged those waiting to find a new job, waiting to meet their spouse, waiting for healing and waiting to launch their ministry, etc.

It’s an honor and privilege to get to inspire my Readers.

Thanks for helping me celebrate this milestone!

Waiting on God Well gave me time to address a deep prayer request of my heart I had sort of ‘buried.” I took your book on a plane trip, underlined and prayed my way thru, even journaling some. Thank you for your encouragement!” – Reader

God is Good!

Who knew that now I’d be working on Book 5 … God knew! And He knows what else He has in store … thanks for staying on this faith adventure with me.

If you haven’t read this uplifting book, here is an excerpt from the Foreword of Waiting on God Well:

“Waiting is not passive. It’s not for the weak but for the strong. It takes strength and courage to wait for God to give you the green light. It’s not about having a blasé attitude.

Instead, it’s about expecting God to come through in His perfect timing and open doors that no man can shut. It’s taking God at His Word and believing that He will do exactly what He promised to do!

My prayer is that you won’t despise the process you are going through, but that you will look for Jesus, even in the tight places, because He is right there with you. He is leading, guiding, and loving you. He has not forsaken you! He will bring you through.”

I’m sharing more excerpts and insights from Waiting on God Well in Season 4 of the “Abounding Faith for Today” podcast. You can check out the short and inspiring episodes on:
