Inspired Brushstrokes
As you study my paintings, search for one common thread ~ JESUS. His name, image and scripture are incorporated in my works of art to teach the urgency of knowing, loving, and trusting God, and living out His Word. God's purpose for creating you and me, was for His glory. He is to be valued above all relationships and all things. If you are a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ, you are given a platform to point others to Him. You are to unwaveringly acknowledge Him through your thoughts, words and actions. How are you doing with your God-given platform? Are you pointing others to Christ? NFL quarterback, TIM TEBOW, is a bold witness with his God-given platform. Regardless of what others say or think, or how it might affect his career, Tim faithfully shares his devotion to God. He knows his greatest purpose is not his fame and fortune; his greatest purpose is to point his audience to JESUS CHRIST. Keep up the good work, brother!

The Family Collection teaches biblical principals and the need to apply scripture to daily life. The accompanying stories document the pilgrimage of real people exemplifying Christ. Their stories may encourage you to live life better than the way you were raised, unless you come from a rich legacy of Christ followers. The truth is, God doesn't care where you come from. HE LOVES YOU right where you are, and wants to communicate with you. By the power of the Holy Spirit, God reveals Himself through prayer, the bible, circumstances, and the church-other Christians (Henry Blackaby-Experiencing God). Time spent with the LORD is vital to develop a growing personal relationship with Him. At the moment of salvation you are; born-again; adopted as God's beloved child; forgiven and set free from your past. At that moment, you receive the gift of the Holy Spirit (a very part of God) which comes to dwell in your heart; He transforms you into a new person. If you find this difficult to believe, investigate the bible for yourself. Ask God, "Are You really who You say You are? Will You really do what Your Word (the Scriptures) says You will do? Can You really deliver me from the misery of all my sins? 1 John 1:9-2:6 Will You make Yourself known as I study Your Word?" My personal testimony bears witness to a changed life when one turns from sin, and turns to God. (The Apostle Paul's testimony Acts26:12-23.) Don't rob yourself of the blessings tucked away in the treasure chest of God's Life-giving Word. IF you search for Him with your whole heart, you have His promise; He will be found Jeremiah 29: 11-14.

About

 Speaking Schedule Contact Info Exhibits |
Often times, paintings become permanent records of their creator's passion. How do you want to be remembered? Artist or not, you paint permanent messages in the memories of your viewers? Each new day brings opportunities to begin with an empty canvas. Choices today influence your viewers long after you're gone. If you're focused on Jesus, your choices result with eternal heavenly perspective. But if you're focused on (consumed with) the world (self-focus, other people, your job, fame, fortune, past disappointments, or whatever you think about the most) your choices could lead to eternal separation from God Galatians6:1-10. For good or for evil, you're making a difference for eternity as your heart reveals what you're really made of Proverbs27:19. How will the end of your story be written? The transforming power of Jesus will equip you to be mindful of; your most important relationship (loving God supremely); the new memories you create (loving others sacrificially); and the legacy you'll one day leave behind.
