About This Website


Go therefore, make disciples of all the nations; baptize them in the name of the Father and the Son and Holy Sprit, and teach them to observe all the commands I gave you, and know that I am with you always; yes, to the end of time.

When Jesus commanded his disciples to do this, He wasn't just talking to the men and women that were standing with Him at His ascension.  He was talking to everyone who would someday profess to be Christian.  Going forth and making disciples of all nations is just as much our charge to keep as it was theirs.  This website's intended purpose is to invite people into discipleship with Jesus Christ.

ABOUT THE PAGE
I like to think of christianworksandwords.com as an online mission telling salvation's story.  The website currently has three pages.

Publications – A compilation of scholarly papers that I have written as a student in seminary.  I am also inviting my fellow students to submit papers they have written for various class assignments.  This includes papers on various subjects such as theology, scripture study, spiritual disciplines, and physiological Christian counseling.  While I do not endorse every idea expressed in these papers, I do encourage everyone to participate in open dialogue on the Christian Faith.  My feeling is that an active Christian with an orthodox (correct) theology is better than a lukewarm Christian any day.

Sojourners – Expresses my concern to our Christian response to illegal and legal immigration in the United States.  This is by far one of the overwhelming tasks of Christians in the Southwestern United States where immigration from Mexico is a predominate issue.

Recovery – A mission project that I have worked for years to develop.  It involves a plan to build a recovery center for men with addictions.  It is based on a 90-day recovery program through Biblical study and the 12-step programs common throughout recovery programs.

Talk To Me  – Please respond to my e-mail address.  I welcome dialogue and comments on these and many other subjects.  Your e-mail could be published if it reflects Christian thoughts and attitudes and does not include pictures (pictures take up space).


ABOUT THE AUTHOR
 

I was raised in far West Texas.  After graduation from Texas Tech University I returned home and later relocated to the Gulf Coast of Texas.  I am from the Methodist Tradition.  However, I feel that the true Church is the body of Christ present in all Christian Traditions.  I am currently attending Houston Graduate School of Theology (HGST).  I am pursuing a Master of Divinity degree.  I will use this degree to establish a ministry of recovery for men with various addictions (alcohol, drugs).


I am especially grateful to my wife, Kim, for helping make this and other projects a reality.  Kim's love and support give me the courage and ability to go forward.
