I was born again at the age of 5. at the age of 7, God told me I wouldn't die. I just laughed , since I knew everyone dies. A few years ago, He ask me what would happen to me If Jesus were to come in my life time. I realized what He was telling me. I Believe He will come in my life time. If you listen to any of the songs God has given me. Please remember what I have shared above. I was raised a Baptist Preacer's Kid ,signed with New York Yankees in 1962 and God gave me my first song in 1982.…

I have never been one to subscribe to magazines yet there is one that for many years I would buy at the local farm supply store. Finally one Fathers Day Suzanne got me a subscription to American Cowboy. It’s not a large magazine but it speaks to me with its grass roots cowboy contributions. Recently the magazine’s editor sent out a question over the social web pages asking,…

I went to church this Sunday

to sing, pray, worship and praise

At the end of the service a comittee broke out

They said when you come back again

Ask the Lord before you come in

If you should sing and sway whats that all about

Come back next week if it's church you seek

So off I went considering my song

Lord fill my heart make me strong

Next Sunday I went to church

To sing and pray this time to worship

Again I was told now…

The heart of Oklahoma is baking, but on the upside, besides issuing another heat advisory the Health Dept. says it is now safe to eat roadkill, as long it's been out there forty-five minutes.

The drought is so bad in Oklahoma, I heard that some Baptist are doin Baptisms by Sprinkling, The Methodist are usin…

What does the Bible say about moving on? Many times, because of loss in our lives, we have had events that affected our physical and psychological well being. The loss of a job, the breaking of a friendship, a couple breaks up, or a family argument causes a great divide between once close relationships. How do we cope with such loss?

Recently I was reading about dealing with loss in the work place. Today many Americans are out of work with no job prospects in sight. Having…

A mouse looked through the crack in the wall 

to see the farmer and his wife open a package.

"What food might this contain?", the mouse wondered.

He was devastated to discover that it was a mouse trap.

Retreating to the farmyard, the mouse proclaimed this warning :"There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap in the house!"The chicken clucked and scratched,…

An old Cherokee told his grandson, "My son, there's a battle between two wolves inside us all. One is Evil. It is anger, jealousy, greed, resentment, inferiority, lies, & ego. The other is Good. It is joy, peace, love, hope, humility, kindness, empathy, & truth." The boy thought about it & asked his grandfather, "Which wolf wins?" The old Cherokee quietly replied, "The one you feed."

On June 10, 2011 I dropped my daughter Emily off at horse camp, it would be her first time staying the night away from me w/anyone but my Mother or a family member, but I wasn't worried, the lady who owns and runs the camp is someone I have always and still think the world of. And Emily would be bunking in a tent her Uncle loaned her with one of her best little friends.The other girls Mother and I got everything set up and I…

WHATTA YA KNOW? (1Jn_2:3): KEEP is a mariner’s word. When a man is on the sea he would keep his eye on the stars and steer the ship by them. The commandments are the standard by which I chart my course.

This does not mean the man could not be blown off course, or might not over-steer or nod at the wheel or be distracted or somehow fail to keep a perfect course. But the aim,…

As a part of my ministry I also do a report on Inspirational Country Radio Network, called 'News From The World Of Rodeo' (a longer version of this report runs on WorldOfRodeo.Com), I am looking to interview Cowboy Ministries who have upcoming events, such as rodeos, playdays, barrel racings, schools etc.

If you have such an event coming up and you would like me to mention it both on the program and to list it on WorldOfRodeo.com please contact me with the information about…

I am the host of the Cowboy Gospel Hour (cowboygospelhour.com), the program is a weekly (unless God tells me to produce more than one that week :) ) broadcast available for listening at the website or as a podcast. The show combines Christian Country Music (I'd like more bluegrass), a scripture reading and a message for those who are trying to get through today.  The messages by themselves (no music) are posted for broadcast at texascowboychurch.com.

I am always looking for…

Spiritual Lessons From The American West

(Volume 29, May 2011)

The Bad Guys - "Doc" Holiday…

Often, I have heard is said that character is who a person is when no one else is around.  I tend to disagree as this statement is only partly true.  Character is who a person is all the time.  It is a product of a lifetime.  Someone said that "character is a quality of life.  As such, it affects personality, attitudes, and life standards."

     Who was Peter?  He was a man that you wanted on your side.  If there was a squabble over fishing rights or a heavy catch that needed hauling…
