It’s been awhile since I last blogged but I’m going to get back to blogging on a regular basis. My last blog revealed the main personal goals of my life. After forming A Fresh Start Ministries in July 2009, with the help of ministry supporters we premiered A Fresh Start TV Program. On one of the first programs aired, the message I shared was on my personal goals. On a recent program of A Fresh Start my message centered upon Back To The Basics, which related the basic convictions upon which I have lived my life and conducted myself with my family, in the ministry and throughout society. I am not going to summarize what those convictions are in this blog. I am simply going to list them below, but I feel the simple statement that goes with each of those convictions will give you an idea of what motivates me to be “a man after God’s own heart who will do all His will” (1 Sam. 13:14; Acts 13:22).
