A Strong Launch

First, a little back story:

CalebStrong.org (CS) began as a Men’s Fraternity group that simply kept meeting after the three seasons. We explored Apologetics, Biblical history, and Strength of Character, as found in the example given in the Books found in the Bible, like Joshua, Daniel, and many others.

For a season, the Lord put it on my heart to mentor other men. As I did so, I began writing and speaking, and started to dream of the CalebStrong curriculum. I became involved (and thus distracted) by another good work. This work was an idea for a ministry called Redeemed-N-Delivered(RnD). RnD’s goal was to minister to broken families, through a prison ministry, through a single parents ministry and through service … Click to Continue

The Price of Obedience

I have so much to say about my frustrations in my spiritual and work lives. I am trying to express them without whining and with the understanding that I truly believe that Our Lord will provide.

Crisis of Spirit: Study Time.

As I ponder the question of “how does that apply to me today”, that still small voice speaks…

March Update: Marketing, Fundraising and Fellowship

Yes, it is both sad and true. It has been over 3 months since my last post and by my count almost 6 since I posted anything of substance.

So what does that mean for my 5 whole full-time readers? – Well, in a nutshell, I suck…What it really means, other than that, is that I have been in some SERIOUS transition.

I have separated from the company for which I was building marketing efforts and product lines. There was just too much of me going in and not enough of me coming out at the end of the day. I had a hard time separating my personal goals from the company goals. This is good and fine if all … Click to Continue
