There will come a time and a place when we will stand before our Creator to be judged – Both the Believer and the Unbeliever. At that moment your fate will be decided and the Lords Judgment will be eternal.
It is our humble prayer that the words found in this short sermon will leave a lasting impact and bring about revival from the inside out.

“My Beauty For Your Ashes”
My Beauty For Your Ashes, the first in the Christian fiction series Promises to Zion, is an emotionally gripping story full of twists and turns that will keep you engaged to the last page.
Elder Paige Morganson has worked hard to overcome the anger, hate, and abuse of her past; Mason Jenson is a self-made man who has been able to create his own fortune and build a home life with his wife and child void of God’s help…so he thinks,; Elder Brandon Tatum’s, new in town, has prided himself on not making a move until he’s heard God; Victoria Branchett has ruthlessly survived the death of her only daughter by fierce determination, but is the strength she has relied on enough to see her through a failing marriage and an ailing grandchild?
This novel merges colorful characters facing one untimely circumstance after another, and mixes in a serious spin on how one views God, both inside and outside of His will. As they sift through the debris of past dreams and hopes left by the wayside, they are offered a lifeline and given an opportunity to receive God’s beauty for their ashes.

Every Fathers Choice
From the moment my wife came to me and told me we were going to have a baby my thoughts began to race. “We can barely pay the rent and feed ourselves” I thought as I sat there completely stunned by my wife’s announcement. I knew I needed to be strong and not reveal any of my inward fears.
“I don’t know how to be a father; I am barely succeeding as a husband.”
As she stood there with her pregnancy test in her hands I knew she was watching my every reaction. Forcing a smile to my face I buried my fears and revealed a mixture of shock and excitement to the statement that would change my life forever. After hugging and kissing my wife I took some time to pray and gather some much needed strength from the Bible.
“Lord Jesus, help me become the Father you intend me to be.”
In that moment I began to realize I was in an all too familiar situation for most men. It’s moments such as this where we have to make a decision that will affect not only our own lives but also the lives of everyone involved: specifically my wife and our unborn child. Do I harden my heart and exercise my “Choice” to murder my unborn child? Or do I follow my God given convictions and stand for what I believe in.
Not for a moment did I even consider murder as an option, but simply being in that situation for the first time made me stand in awe of the weight of this decision. I began to wonder how many men have faced this situation before and chose murder. How many men have pushed their woman into a decision that would end the life of the unborn simply because the situations were not ideal? How many today are going through exactly what I went through and will lack the strength to stand tall?
Rising to me feet and feeling the presence of God in my situation I began to rejoice that the Lord has blessed me with another life to care for. Though our bills were stacking up and our refrigerator empty the Lord God whom I serve saw fit to bless us even in times of uncertainty.
A couple months farther down the road from that decision I saw my son for the first time through a 3d ultrasound. As he smiled for the camera my heart melted within. I made the right decision, I stood for my Christian beliefs, and my life will never be the same again.
If today you are faced with that same decision that all fathers once faced; I implore you to not take this decision lightly. Your decision will result in either the life or the death of your offspring and it consequences are eternal. If you find yourself lacking in strength please comment below, message me, or do whatever is required to allow the unborn their first breath.
“For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well. My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them. How precious to me are your thoughts, O God! How vast is the sum of them! If I would count them, they are more than the sand. I awake, and I am still with you.”
