The Fearful Tests of God

In 1997, after years of wanting but not doing, I began flying lessons. The lessons taught me how to take off and land, how to navigate using instruments and charts, and how to communicate with aviation radios.


I particularly liked learning to land.

On my third flight, my instructor Jayne pulled the plane’s throttle to idle and announced that my engine had just “died.” She asked what I was going to do. While throttling her was not an option (because I hadn’t yet learned to land), I was strongly tempted.

Is TRANSFORMATION in Christ Only a Myth for ...

Four Streams Partners currently works exclusively with men. But this idea of ‘Inside-Out Transformation’ applies equally to Men and Women. The Mission Statement of 4SP is: ‘Awaken Men to More LIFE Through a Transformational Relationship with Jesus’

As we talk with Men who are on a pilgrimage to connect with Jesus and experience Life as He lived it, it is common to uncover a deep belief in many men that goes something like this, “I want this Life promised by Jesus but, if I’m honest, I can’t see myself changing and don’t even have a category for transformation.”

Feeling like an orphan... when I know I'm a Son

Feeling like an orphan... when I know I'm a Son

I've noticed a pattern. As a guy in the 2nd half of life, I realize that I'm good at certain things and not so good at others. And, in the masculine world I live in, some of the things I'm not so good at fall clearly in the column labeled "Things Men Are Supposed to Do". It's true of almost every man. Even if your earthly father was a good man, you can bet there are some things you needed - as a Man - that he simply wasn't equipped to give you. And you got short-changed. Perhaps that explains why, in some environments, you feel like a young boy; unfathered; ill-equipped; shameful.
