The Word in your mouth is a masterpiece of God’s creation—and the power in the truth is undeniable, regardless of what the enemies of God say!

The door for church planting is WIDE OPEN!
Walk through the door to the international component of your ministry!

Just finished a call with the Prime Minister to discuss the tariff escalation.
My message: release the text of the rejected agreement, recall Parliament, and adopt an emergency Economic Action Plan to save jobs and lower costs for our people.
The plan should scrap gas taxes until Canada Day, have zero capital gains tax on reinvesting in Canada, end the industrial carbon tax, green -light the 500 projects waiting for federal permits, and have ZERO sales tax on Canadian-made cars.
As the U.S. hikes tariffs, we must lower taxes for Canadians.
Let’s all fight for our workers, our businesses, and our country.
Pastor—
STOP PRAYING FOR SALVATIONS YOU’RE NOT READY TO DISCIPLE.
Believing for 50? Prepare for 50.
That’s why I wrote I HAVE DECIDED TO FOLLOW JESUS.
A first step for every YES to Jesus.
Don’t just count decisions.
MAKE DISCIPLES.

I HAVE DECIDED TO FOLLOW JESUS is here! 🙌
I wrote this as a first-step tool for someone who just said YES to Jesus.
Pastors: how many decisions are you believing for this year?
25? 50? 100?
Order that many in faith.
Be ready for every YES. 🔥

Unpopular opinion:
We’ve spent decades talking about everything that shapes a child…
…except the one thing that’s consistently one of the strongest influences:
An engaged dad.
🧵
Fatherhood isn’t a side quest.
It’s culture-shaping work.
That’s why I built the free 6PM Dad Assessment.
Find out the type of dad you become after the workday ends—and how to become even more intentional.
👉 6pmdad.com
What do you think matters most in a father?
You know your personality type.
But do you know your Dad Type?
Thousands of dads are helping us answer one question:
What actually makes a great father?
Take the free 3-minute quiz and see where you land.
👉 6pmdad.com
No one teaches you how to be a dad at 6PM.
Not at 9AM when you’re productive.
Not on Sunday when you’re at church.
I’m talking about the moment you walk through your front door after a long day.
🧵
I'm also inviting the first 500 dads to take the assessment as part of one of the largest research projects I’ve ever conducted on fatherhood.
Your participation helps us better understand what dads need today.
f you’re a dad—or know one who wants to become more intentional—I’d love for you to take it.
It’s free.
Take the 6PM Dad Assessment here:
👉 6pmdad.com
Then come back and tell me what Dad Type you got.

What happens when a nation starts calling parts of the Bible “hate speech?" That's what Canada's Bill C-9 seeks to do, and if it can happen there… what’s stopping it from happening anywhere?

Poor Americans who attend church regularly are happier than rich Americans who never go.
Behavioral scientist William von Hippel thought he'd made a coding error. He hadn't.
"Regularly attending services has a bigger impact on your happiness than wealth," he writes. "Money buys a fair bit of happiness but connection gives you more bang for the buck."
What's happening? Rich people already have most of what money buys. What they lack is what churches provide for free: weekly, repeated contact with people who know your name.
Von Hippel is direct about the cost: "I suspect that wealthy, educated urbanites are paying a steeper price for their lifestyle than they realize. Many of us have paid too great a price in connection for our increased autonomy."
5 Reasons You Don’t Skip Church:
1. Because your faith isn’t built alone.
- Isolation weakens you. Worship with others strengthens you.
2. Because truth calibrates your life.
- Not opinions. Not algorithms. The Word of God.
3. Because you need real people.
- Not followers. Not likes. People who know your name and call you higher.
4.Because information isn’t enough.
- Church isn’t about being inspired—it’s about being transformed.
