Loyalty, listening, a can do attitude, and love of life and God.

What’s something new that you’ve learned about the Bible lately, that has surprised you?

The application of the Kingdom of God in my imagination. From 2 Cor. 10 If you forgive anyone, I also forgive him. And what I have forgiven—if there was anything to forgive—I have forgiven in the sight of Christ for your sake, 11 in order that Satan might not outwit us. For we are not unaware of his schemes. I have found that when I imagine all some must go through to forgive it makes my heart leap for joy, to the point that I have happy forgiveness for those whom others have forgiven and so it makes it a joy for me to forgive them too.

What do you think makes a good leader, someone that you’ll follow?

Someone who has a sincere shoe leather passion in the Lord—and is reliant upon the anointing of God for his/her thoughts, actions, attitudes, and language in the everyday working out of that passion.

Your favorite snack?

Any kind of nut.

If you could have lunch with a famous person, who would it be and why?

Christ. Personal communion and a meal with Him would inspire me even further to serve Him in the power of the Holy Spirit.

Continue to pray for my family, the church and Pastor Walt and my ministry to fathers who have lost children by abortion on a daily basis.

What is your definition of a retreat?

A time away from normal scheduling and seeking the presence of God.

His compassion and unending desire to chase me with His blessings
