Confirming Decisions
No decision of significance is made in our household without lots of discussion and then giving it to the Lord for a final yes or no. I can not remember a time when we did this and the out come was not the right direction. A few years back, we sensed the Lord wanted us to become an independent ministry. We had been under the covering of a national organization who had been nothing but great to work with, however it seemed like it was time to move in a different direction.
God Speaks through Circumstances
God does speak to us through the circumstances of our lives if we are willing to listen. He moved me from a career in the military to full time ministry to becoming a Christ following business owner. I would not have chosen what He has led us to on my own…I was always a ‘play it safe’ kind of guy. Ministry and start up businesses do NOT fall in that category.
Reflecting His Glory
Last Saturday morning, on the Grand River near Toronto Motorsports Park, JAMA Racing Ministry was honored to help four believers celebrate their faith through water baptism. I can’t begin to put into words the joy I feel nor express how proud I am of the decision these friends made to profess their faith through baptism. I consider myself privileged that God would choose us to be His hands and feet on this momentous day…to Him goes all the glory!
Waiting on God
Our society is driven by results. Whether it’s the grades on your tests at school, the results of your latest project or even the impact of your sermon, we focus on results, not the process. I’m not saying results are not important, they are to a degree, however, if we focus solely on them we miss out on so much in life because we fail to enjoying the journey.
Embracing the Mess
The other day I needed to run out to pick up a couple of items for one of our production units. Instead of taking the interstate home, I decided to take a slower but more picturesque route. Along this way, a couple of the roads are either under construction or have recently been renovated. One road in particular was rerouted and repaved to remove a cumbersome intersection.

What the World Needs Now
‘What the World Needs Now is Love’ was a hit song in the 60’s and originally sang by Jackie DeShannon. As you read through the lyrics, you start to understand there is beauty all around us created by the Lord. The mountains, the fields, the meadows, all have His handy work, His glorious touch, their beauty and majesty speaks for itself. What can we add to all He has provided? Love…yes, it really is that simple. That is the single biggest thing we can do every day..love.
