Good News for a Change:  I speak life and write to help encourage and teach people about seeking God’s Simple Gospel Truth, Amazing Grace and Deepest Love.

I have learned though experiencing some very tough challenges that life was never meant to be so complicated. We choose to make it that way. When we stop doing the wrong things and start doing the right things, life becomes more clear, meaningful, simple and easier. Deep down, most of us are simply looking for unconditional love, forgiveness, acceptance, approval, a sense of belonging and the reality of a transformed life. My purpose here is to encourage you to make the decisions and choices that provide for better health, inner peace, career satisfaction, thriving relationships, abundant finances and a loving family by faith, hope and perseverance.

My own personal story is one of redemption, mercy, and amazing grace. It includes regret, sorrow, pain and suffering, but great joy and victory. I’ve experienced a divorce, business failure, bankruptcy, home foreclosure and having my car repossessed. I’ve battled and overcome addictions, anxiety, and depression to the brink of committing suicide, to now living a new life of abundant blessings and inner peace. This is an inspiring story of trials to triumph and beauty from ashes.

I now want to teach others that what matters most in life isn’t our material possessions, but our relationships, who we love and who loves us; also that money will buy you a bed, but not a good night’s sleep, a house but not a true home, and a companion but not a faithful friend.

My mission here is to write blog posts and eventually a book that motivates, inspires, teaches and encourages others by sharing this very personal story and journey with others because I truly feel that at the core: “our lives are simple, but we choose to make them complicated.”

I hope my blog will challenge you to re-examine life as we know it and how we choose to live it.
