Shakin' The Salt

Learn how you can apply God‘s word to change areas in your life, face the unknown trials of each day and be equipped for the great future that God has for you.

Life is short and it’s time for you to have joy for your journey.

Ask an alcoholic if alcoholism is real. If you have ever been under the power of demonic forces, you know it is real. Unfortunately, I have. But there is one word demons hate the most, and I traded darkness for Light.

The longer we live the more we see that life really isn’t fair in our judgment! Some really good people – as well as really bad ones as we see it, just don’t get due justice! So how do we explain it?

People ask me why I love teaching, speaking and ministering  in jails. I always say, “But for the grace of God, there go I!” After all, my parents let me spend time in jail in Mexico when I was only 16!
