What’s On Your Bucket List?
Let me begin by saying I firmly believe that it’s the role of the Holy Spirit to bring a person to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. Only God’s Spirit can speak to someone’s spirit on the level of conviction required for life change. I also believe that, as Christ’s followers, it’s up to us… Continue reading What’s On Your Bucket List?
Forty Two Letters
How often do you receive a letter in the mail? No, I mean an old-fashioned paper and ink message that came from someone’s fingers directly. Not an email shot off a computer screen. Well, part of my assignment I accepted as a team member of Kairos #58 is the responsibility to hand write a letter… Continue reading Forty Two Letters
A May 1st-ish Newsletter
Here’s the latest goings on in the life of Wade Webster, future best selling author extraordinaire. Last Sunday a friend from church asked how different things were going in my life.

Be Careful What You Stand On
I thought about calling this post “Slippery Footing.” I think the title I chose fits better. I’ve had trouble standing lately. Not literally, just figuratively.

When the unexpected happens so many times a fella realizes it’s actually normal for… Continue reading Be Careful What You Stand On

IT’S YOU SIR
Nathan paused when he approached the throneroom door. “LORD, give me the strength to do Your work here.” He pulled the door open and walked up to King David. David smiled and cocked his head to the left. “Nathan, I didn’t expect you today. To what do I owe this pleasure?” “There were two men.… Continue reading IT’S YOU SIR
I just prayed for 150 men…one book at a time
I first met Marcia on a Sunday morning. She approached me before our adult fellowship time and introduced herself. She said she noticed me a week or two before that sitting by myself. She said I looked defeated. This was a few years ago…after my wife left me and before I lost my secure job… Continue reading I just prayed for 150 men…one book at a time
