New Short Course Series And A Revamp Of The FBC Website Coming.

I pray your enjoying your fall season, and the cooler weather. It is a wonderful time of the year, but not near long enough to truly enjoy the season. Especially with all its beauty in some parts of the country. It is this time of year I miss being in Connecticut in the fall, but I know it is a short season for us all.  However, the vibrant colors on the trees were so wondrous on a sunny fall day back in New England, that I miss it at various times during the season.

Two items of interest for prospective college students, former students and friends of the ministry of Focus Bible College.
One, I am beginning to work on some design changes to make the website easier to navigate, and will be eliminating some items that we brought over from the old site, which are not necessary any longer. Two, I am preparing for our second short courses offering for our ministers and students with us here at FBC. It is on " The Top Ten Mistakes Of Leadership ". The textbook for this series has the same title, and is written by Hans Finzel. I am working on additional materials that will compliment the textbook, and we will be having " guests " whom we will have recorded conference calls with. Whom will answer your questions and those I pose considering leadership. Some of the ministers you will know, some will be new to you. However, I believe the course will be lively and introspective. I pray I will start having the introductory lessons ready for you in the days to come. It will be 50.00 for those studying for college credit, but as before we will make it open to all to enjoy.

God bless you and have a great day in the Lord.

We are discovering invaluable truths about Moses and his walk through the wilderness in our short courses series. Many of the truths I believe are challenging us, and helping us to become better Christians I pray. Our latest audio I have felt compelled to post here on the college blog. For in it are spiritual truths every minister and student needs to be reminded of in their living out their faith in the Lord. I pray you will listen to the message whether you are taking the short courses series or not. Allowing the Holy Spirit to touch you as God reaches deep within your heart. 

God bless you all and I pray it will minister to each you in a supernatural way.

The Lord Challenged Me To Take These Steps For Revival.

​I have been waiting on God for direction in a variety of matters in life. Have you ever been there? In that place or holding pattern where you know in your spirit you have to change direction, or need a fresh anointing or divine instruction. If so, and I believe you have. It's not always the most enviable position to be in, because its usually the most vulnerable. It is usually where Satan will try to get in and place doubt, fears or any other trap he has in his arsenal to get you off course. This being the case, it is so vitally important to put on the armor of God every day, and keep focused on what has been your last marching orders. Don't get frustrated, or off course. Remember in this holding pattern to maintain patience in His grace and His divine wisdom.

In my personal life Satan has been trying to do whatever he can to make me doubt God's love toward me. He has done this by trying to place sickness, or disease, financial challenges and whatever else in my way. However, I have tried to stay the course. Putting my heart toward focusing on FBC, the church and better ways to minister and touch the lives of as many people as I can. The Lord has challenged me to lift up a standard, and that standard is His Love. Satan wants you and I to focus on the situation and what we lack, or have lost. However, the master of the universe wants us to keep our eyes on Him, if we do that we will weather the storm and get to the other side. That promised land of God, where His Blessings will flow. The place where we find that next chapter of service in the Kingdom of God.

Two nights ago God gave me a dream and woke me up and told me to write some things down. He said they are for me and for my brethren. So I am sharing them with our faculty and students here at FBC and my family at Full Gospel Restoration. 

God has shared with me, that if we establish these 12 things I am going to share with you in our hearts . We will turn the tide on the enemy, and see the next phase of ministry and revival in our lives. Amen. I pray they will affect you in a powerful way in your life, as they are starting to do mine.


1. Show extravagant love in every area of life.
2. Have an almost brutal honesty considering yourself.
3. A sacrificial lifestyle.
4. Engage in the impossible. 
5. Run from evil, trust in Him.
6. Obey the Spirit
7. Return to basics ( keep it simple ). Don't be looking for the latest get BIG scheme in Christianity ) The apostles waited for the promise on the day of Pentecost, then they just lived out the principles Christ gave them to live by.
8. Bury doubt in faith in what seems impossible to men.
9. Dare to dream a dream.
10. Start laying plans for your dream by faith. Take a baby step.
11. Forgive yourself and others to free yourself for complete ministry in His kingdom.
12. Retain His character and with it expect Revival.

Meditate upon these things and I pray this word today gives you strength and hope today.
