God has been too good to me. Someone said: "Who you respect is who you attract." I totally believe that! Lord knows, we have enough "haters" and I elected long ago that I'd rather die a helper than live a hater in this Game called Life. Since childhood, one of my heroes is MEADOWLARK LEMON. In case, you were [...]
A teacher asked a classroom filled to capacity: "If you want to receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior come forward right now." Not a soul moved. She asked again and the room was silent. It seemed slow motion, hearts raced, palms sweated and eyes darted to see if anyone else would [...]
In less than two weeks, it is my privilege to return and preach again at SIX FLAGS AMERICA in Largo, MD (just outside of our Nation's Capital). MARK YOUR CALENDARS because on Saturday, June 19th I have the privilege to present the Gospel for their FAITH DAY. Singing is none other than multiple [...]
In an age of Big buildings, Big budgets and Big bucks we must remember that in God's economy bigger is NOT always better. If crowds alone were a gauge for God to view success than He would have "by passed" the woman at the well, the lonely leper looking for love while longing to be [...]
Travelling is not only part of my job but one of my greatest JOYS! My life resembles PLANES, TRAINS & AUTOMOBILES (literally). Travelling is not always glamorous but it is indeed God's grace that I get to roll (much less FLY). When I worked on Capitol Hill, one of the highlights for me was flying [...]
Folks stop me periodically and say: "Frank, I love Jesus, I am going to Heaven but I don't feel obligated to go to church. What do you think?" Perhaps you have had heard a similar statement too. Some suggest salvation is enough. Well, before I answer let me remind you what God says on this [...]
Ruth and I, will be leaving this Thursday for the Dominican Republic and since baby Andrew was born in January we have yet to spend an evening away together. We are looking forward to spending a couple days away for some R & R. Without question, we will miss our little munchkin but before we [...]
Clay Crosse is an amazing man. Not just because he has TEN Number One hits over the years but because he is authentic, transparent and best of all forgiven. His hit songs include: "I Surrender All" and a host of others dominated the radio airwaves during the 1990's and early 2000. It was my pleasure [...]
(Frank Shelton wrote this blog on Oct 1, 2009 but re-released it for 30th anniversary of E.T. in theaters) In 1981, while making the major motion picture "E.T." the directors of the movie contacted the candy M&M's and politely asked if they could use their candy in the film. M&M's responded with a resounding "No!" [...]
The past weekend was busy to say the least but its an honor to share God's Word and love on people. Last week, on Wednesday, August 26, I preached at First Baptist Church of Accokeek in Maryland www.FBCOA.org and on Thursday morning, I was a guest on air LIVE on WWGB 1030 AM Radio [...]
My parents taught me "old school." Years ago, I was told if someone is smarter, stronger and has achieved some success in their field the proper thing to do was reach out to them, befriend them, invite them to lunch, pay for their meal and humbly ask: "How did you do it?" From there, [...]
