It was my birthday weekend; my buddies were passed out from smoking weed laced with something that had caused all of us to hallucinate. I was the only one awake. The feeling of being entirely alone swept through me in horrifying waves of fear. While everyone slept, odd memories started to come forth and I remember thinking about God and Heaven and hell. This voice in my head began contradicting and disproving the Word of God to me, whispering it through my brain. I remember running to the bathroom and vomiting blood. That was when I really knew I hadn’t just been smoking weed. I still do not know what it was that had been slipped to us, I just remember sitting on my stairs feeling as if I had been sucked into another world. Was I crazy? No. Was I high? Yes. That is what drugs do, but I was aware enough to know that this was not just a simple case of hallucination. READ MORE
All Fun and Games, Until the Darkness Begins (Pt. 1)
It has always struck me as funny how people’s image of you is never the image you have of yourself. Whenever I tell people here at the ministry my testimony, they are always a little bit shocked. Most here have only known me for perhaps the past four to six years and when I tell them that I used to dabble in drugs and not live for Jesus, they are like “What?!” Even Pastor Jim, when I first got here and I told him some of my testimony said, “Well my goodness, I thought you were a good church boy all along!” READ MORE
Find Your Calling
One of the many things that Jim and I love about Morningside is the people that work, volunteer and study at this ministry! From 18 to 80, the talent and creativity absolutely fill this place up! No job is more important than the other because it takes each and every person to keep this ministry going. We get so excited when one of our staff or students find that special gift, blessed by God, and is able to glorify Him while excelling at their job. Sometimes people will begin in one department but move to various areas of the ministry to find their right fit. One thing is for certain, when you put Him in your heart as you go about your work, He will bless your efforts and will reveal your calling! READ MORE
History Repeats
History goes by in cycles and repeats itself. In school I didn’t really care so much about history, and now it has become a little obsession of mine. I am on this path of trying to learn everything about American history I possibly can. It is my belief that God uses all of these things and the greater amount of history I know, the better I will be able to see what is coming again. I have never viewed myself as a prophet but I do view myself as a watchman on the wall. By studying the times and the dates and learning about our past, how it actually was, I am gaining understanding on how it is unfolding again. READ MORE
Prepping for Fun!
Proverbs 17:22 A cheerful heart is good medicine but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.
Months ago, John Shorey mentioned that when you are storing food for difficult times that you must remember “comfort” food. That is so true and has stuck with me. Having some fun during times of trouble provides comfort as well! Jim and I love to play games and do things together as a family. Laughter lifts the spirit and brings people together! When you are preparing for times of trouble, don’t forget to include some items that will bring smiles too! READ MORE
The Law of First Mentioned (Pt. 2)
Hebrews 7 NIV
This Melchizedek was king of Salem and priest of God Most High. He met Abraham returning from the defeat of the kings and blessed him, and Abraham gave him a tenth of everything. First, the name Melchizedek means “king of righteousness”; then also, “king of Salem” means “king of peace.” Without father or mother, without genealogy, without beginning of days or end of life, resembling the Son of God, he remains a priest forever.

The Loudest Voice
This is such an epic time in the world! God is speaking to the world but it seems that very few people are listening! He couldn’t be speaking any louder and he is letting us know what is coming through the signs in the world. One sign after another, one harbinger after another, day after day, and I HOPE our eyes and ears are open to receive them! This is why our ministry exists to help people see with their whole heart and to understand what God is doing in the earth.
As these prophetic events unfold, I feel led to remind you of WHY God gives us these signs. Why does the Lord bring us these signs and these special harbingers? One reason. LOVE. READ MORE
The Law of First Mentioned (Pt. 1)
I love the deep mysteries of God. Every time I find a new mystery being revealed within the Word, whether it’s in my own personal Bible study or from great speakers on a national stage, it does something in my spirit. It is what I am all about.
In Proverbs 25:2 it is revealed that “It is the Glory of God that can seal a matter.” He likes to hide things! Think about that. The God of the universe and it is His glory to conceal a matter! But the 2nd part of that verse says, “It is the Honor of kings to search things out.” We are those kings! God likes to conceal things and it is to our glory and honor to reveal them. READ MORE
The Ultimate Valentine
Traditionally, people have considered Valentine’s Day a time to celebrate romance but I prefer to think of it more as “Love Day”. Did you know that the word” love” or “loved” is mentioned in the Bible over 400 times! It seems to me that every positive emotion we could ever have is tied directly to this all-encompassing love. Without it, everything we do has no meaning.
There is no doubt that God wants us to love each other! In 1 Corinthians 13, He tells us very clearly how important love is and exactly what that one little word means. Anyone who has ever been to a church wedding will have heard this, but have you taken the time recently to REALLY hear what He is telling us? READ MORE
Ears to Hear
One of the most amazing things we’ve ever done on our show was just recently when we sent Zach down to Texas to talk with a precious couple about their calf. This was no ordinary calf – and it was no ordinary town. The calf was a red heifer born with a “7” outlined perfectly on its head.
You might recall on our recent shows with Rabbi Cahn where he told us of a previous black calf born with a “7” clearly outlined on its face. The Rabbi said this calf was another “harbinger” that confirms that we are entering a time of judgment in this nation at the end of this Shemitah 7-year cycle which is in September. READ MORE
