Religion & Spirituality > Spiritual Insights Achieving peace of mind: 5 of 36

I Miss The San Francisco Bay Area! We are not on this earth to simply conquer others!

Ministry, Poverty, and the Secular Life! 11.18.08 I am fine until I get around people doing well and able to eat better, dress better and transport themselves about better than I do.

Religion & Spirituality > Christian Beliefs & Culture Tapping into God's power: 4 of 8

My Agenda! I have an agenda and some people think that I am so very evil, but I am here in this city that I refer to as "Dark City", which if you ever saw that film, you might know why I refer to this city by that 'nick name'? Or maybe you won't? But under my name and as "The City Homeless" on my new business cards I have ex...

Finding Your Place! I didn't know whether to laugh or to cry! But I did finally have to pack and to move! In Revelation to St. John Jesus is preaching to the Seven Churches of Asia, and He has teachings, words of exhortations, and warnings for each one; But one of the churches He strongly rebukes for only being "lukewarm" an...
