Well, its here and will be over before you know it. Sunday, February 5, 2012 is SUPER BOWL XLVI. Yes, I love the game and equally enjoy (most of the commercials) during the "epic" show. From the classic "Mean Joe Greene" commercial by Coca-Cola in 1979, or a cameo of Sly Stallone in 1983, for [...]
It was my privilege to return yesterday to the great First Baptist Church of Glenarden in Upper Marlboro, MD and worship the Lord.

Yes, it is true. God saved over 21,000 souls to Himself in Jamaica with Praisefest Ministries "Cruise with a Cause" on May 30-June 4, 2011. As long as I live, we will forever recall what God did with 3,000 saints who took a vacation to help change a nation. It has been my privilege to [...]

Elvis Presley was only 16 when he first heard the powerful bass voice of J.D. Sumner. So captivated by the deep melodias tones produced by the Gospel giant (Sumner), an unknown Elvis would sneak in the back door of the Ellis Auditorium in Memphis, TN to soak up the songs. In the early 1950s, Southern [...]

In 1897, a gentleman by the name of Mr Pearl B. Wait was a cough syrup manufacturer in LeRoy, New York. In his spare time he was part scientist and part chef. He loved to play in the kitchen and he was always creating something. He elected to turn his sights on the food service [...]
Grammy Winner Jason Crabb recently noted: "Tell somebody today you love them. You never know when you might not get the chance to." If anyone speaks from experience it is this dear brother because he almost lost two of his sisters, Terah and Kelly plus extended family - Mike Bowling and band members earlier this [...]
JESUS & JAMAICA! What a combination!! The fact is, God loves the world so much that in the wise words of Max Lucado: "Jesus would rather die than live without you." It has been my privilege to be part of all three of Praisefest Ministries - "Cruise with a Cause" to the Bahamas (2006-2008). Dr [...]

It was my pleasure to meet her on the PRAISEFEST "Cruise with a [...]
God gave me a phrase years ago that we have coined now in Christian circulation: "The GREATS are GRACIOUS." My guests today are two of the nicest people on the planet. Aaron & Amanda Crabb are fellow servants of the Gospel, children of the Most High God, an encouragement to many and somehow a [...]
