THE UPPER ROOMS

Life is lived in a series of rooms.

I chose the name “The Upper Rooms” simply because most of my ministerial life has taken place on the top floors of the buildings that I have served in. In-fact, I am currently writing this very bio on the 4th floor of the church that I am serving in now.

Quote Corner

Henry Blackaby

“The Holy Spirit doesn’t need to equip you for what you’re not going to do, so if you’re in rebellion against Jesus and refusing His right to be Lord, He doesn’t need to send the Holy Spirit to equip you for service. And, tragically, you miss out on the joy that He brings. So let the Holy Spirit deal with anything that’s keeping you from Christ.”

“Many people have grown up attending church and hearing about God all their lives, but they do not have a personal, dynamic, growing relationship with God.”

“Some spiritual leaders try to be more committed. What they need is to be more submitted.”

“If Christians around the world were to suddenly renounce their personal agendas, their life goals and their aspirations, and begin responding in radical obedience to everything God showed them. the world would be turned upside down. How do we know? Because that’s what first century Christians did, and the world is still talking about it.”

“But if you find yourself experiencing a desire to seek God, we have great news for you: God is already at work in you.”

Bible Verses

“The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and we are not saved.”

“Therefore, while the promise of entering his rest still stands, let us fear lest any of you should seem to have failed to reach it. For good news came to us just as to them, but the message they heard did not benefit them, because they were not united by faith with those who listened.”

“What is man that you are mindful of him, and the son of man that you care for him? Yet you have made him a little lower than the heavenly beings and crowned him with glory and honor.”
