The following dispatches are a collection of essays that will encourage you to think, envision, and act with intentionality and determination. They are designed to spur you on to personal reflection and give you a greater understanding of who you are, who you can be, and why your life matters—empowering you with a personal sense of destiny.
TAKE NOTE: By reading and reflecting on these stories, you will develop stamina and strength of soul, fortifying your spirit against the downward spiral of passivity and personal decay that inevitably ends at the bottom of a shapeless and meaningless existence. I pray that these messages will keep you fervent in spirit, energized by the truth, giving you the mental and spiritual capacity to soldier on in pursuit of God’s unique calling on your life.
