Empowering People
Spiritually, Mentally, Physically, Financially
Through adversity a choice is born, and it is through these choices that an eternal story of destiny is written.
The first super market this country had ever seen was opened by a man named Micheal Cullen. He saw a need for people to be able to buy items at a discounted rate but on a much larger scale. In an economy that was actively in decline due to the effects of the great depression Cullen saw a light at the end of the tunnel. Had he not opened King Kullen’s Grocery we may have never seen modern supermarkets like Walmart and Sam’s club.
What about you? Are you looking for the light, or just trying to survive through some of your darkest days? Opportunities are only as good as the preparation that went into accomplishing them. And adversity possesses the ability to create wonderful opportunities for people with the right attitude, but the outcome is completely up to you.
How many times do you run into adversity and get excited about the problem...
You’re a genius! Most people who read that first sentence are in the midst of an internal battle trying to convince themselves otherwise. Why is this? Why is it that the second we hear something we perceive to lack integrity we immediately attack this new information.
While most of us aren’t the epitome of a genius, we do have a very healthy source of information on a variety of different subjects. If I asked you to teach me how to shoot a basketball, most people would be able to give me basic instructions on how to do so.
While if I asked Michael Jordan to teach me how to shoot a basketball, he would theoretically be able to give me in depth instructions on how to do so. Thus increasing the value of those instructions, simply by the difference in who is giving them. Think of something that you are very confident in your ability to communicate.
Where does this confidence come from? Most will say experience, some instruction, and few will say that it is an innate...

Ice cream parlors, shoe stores, restaurants, and even beauty supply stores. All businesses that have taken a hit due to the recent Covid19 situation. All of these businesses were not prepared for the hit that would come at the hands of this novel virus. Everyone of these businesses I'm sure went into business with the thought that a pandemic would be the last of their worries. Now that same pandemic is at the forefront of every waking moment they have. Trying to figure out how they are going to recomp the finances that have been lost due to the current global situation.
The real question to ask is not how to get that money back, but how do you make sure that you never lose money to a pandemic again? While most businesses have struggled, some have found ways to flourish amid all the chaos. Catering to the needs of our now virus affected society, by making masks and other protective gear that is sorely needed amongst health care professionals right now....
Imagine your very first relationship. What was it like? Did you get butterflies when you saw them? Did you talk until all hours of the night? And when it ended, what did you take away from the experience? Most will say that while it hurt, the relationship taught them a lot. Showed them the things that they wanted and didn’t want out of future relationships, whether they were with a significant other or elsewhere.
Most of us have ideas of what a relationship should look like. Those models were made for us to see far before we even started school. And for most those ideals took root and began to blossom into what we now believe a relationship should entail.
There are several types of relationships that we all will encounter as we go through life. Parent and child relationships, friendships, marriage, and even business relationships. And just like the rest of the world you have come up with an idea of what each and every one of those relationships should look like....
The original number of brave men who decided to embark on a journey that would change the course of their lives forever. Following a man that most perceived to be insane until he performed the act of turning water into wine. These men followed Jesus far and wide. Traveled with him from city to city watching the miraculous power of God move through him daily. Watching in awe with the rest of the crowd as he did things like make the blind see, make the deaf hear, and even raise people from the dead. Then they were equipped with the same power and told to go out and spread the news of the lord God. Power to heal the sick, power to cast out demons, and even the power to raise the dead. This is the same power that lives on the inside of every child of God roaming the face of the earth.
Today discipleship looks a little different. While the main thing is still serving God, we have been blessed with the ability to organize diciples from all over the world with a simple click...
Have you ever dreamed of what it would be like to wake up, drink your coffee, and make money all at the same time?
The majority of us spend most of our time and a lot of our money in front of a screen, with no way of instantly recouping those finances. If there is anything that the recent world events have taught us all it is that we must be able to adapt with the times. While the world as we know it may never look the same that doesn’t mean that you and your loved ones should be left to struggle. Learning how to pivot is vital.
Online business has become a pivotal piece of the world economy with a total of 602 billion dollars worth of commerce being exchanged online in the U.S. just last year. It’s certainly fair to say that the online aspect of our economy is growing at a rate that exceeds the expectations of most economists. But what does this mean for you?
With this one simple step I use can provide you with all the tools necessary to make this dream a...
