My wife and I served as evangelical, protestant missionaries in France for eleven and a half years, after which I became the pastor and director of a Christian school in a French-speaking evangelical church, L'Eglise Evangelique de Saint Jerome, in Quebec, Canada. After serving in Quebec for five years, we then moved to Greenville, South Carolina, where I became the pastor of the First Evangelical Church of Greenville. In 1995, we moved to Tallahassee, Florida, where I eventually assumed the management of the family business, and remained there until 2012, when our family moved to Meridian, Idaho. My wife and I have six children. These short devotionals are born out of the loss of one of these children in particular, with the hope and prayer that they will serve to encourage and inspire those who read them in their walk with Christ. God bless you all, and may we finish well the race set before us.

The Enduring Command

“Jesus said to him, ‘If I will that he remains till I come, what is that to you? You follow Me.” John 21:22 The call of Christ is not just a single command to the individual.  It is true that it begins with that initial sitting down and calculating what it means to follow Christ…

Fellowship With God

“That which we have seen and heard we declare unto you, that you also may have fellowship with us; and truly our fellowship is with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ.” 1 John 1:3 In the high priestly prayer of Jesus, made just before He was crucified, was revealed very clearly the objective…

Sent By The Father

“I can of Myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge; and My judgement is righteous, because I do not seek My own will but the will of the Father who sent Me.” John 5:30  Throughout Scripture we find that God is sending messengers, often Angels, or His prophets to proclaim His word to a…
