PERSONAL
Who am I?
For many people, a self-description might well be the most challenging thing to write. Perhaps the simplest way to start is by presenting a few general things about myself: where I live, what my core beliefs are, my personal status, and some of my favorite things and people. From those, one might be able to glean insights into my personality and character. But certainly the best way would come by getting to know me personally. I invite you to do just that; it would be my honor.
Where is Home?
At present, I am based in Chicago, Illinois, USA, but my business and residential relocation to British Columbia, Canada, is pending as The Lord prepares and opens the way. In anticipation of this transition, I am currently restructuring my business operations and personal affairs.
“Je suis un homme du Nord” (“I am a man of the North”) has been a personal motto since my early adventures and experiences canoeing and backpacking in the great Canadian wilderness. I hold a deep and abiding respect for the people and country of Canada where soon I will make my home. I eagerly look forward to participating in the great revival The Lord is releasing even now across Canada, making it the True North, strong and free.
What are My Beliefs?
As a born-again and Spirit-filled Christian since graduate school, I serve the One and True God, Who is Three in One, One in Three: Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
He is Holy, eternal, righteous and altogether good. By His passion, death on the cross, and resurrection, Jesus reconciled us to the Father, and made available to us the only way to be saved. His Kingdom is without end, where there is fulness of joy and pleasures at His Right Hand forevermore.
I believe in the divine inspiration and supreme authority of the Old and New Testament Scriptures, which are the written Word of God and therefore fully trustworthy for faith and conduct.
I unashamedly believe in the Person and power of The Holy Ghost, in His gifts and fruit, and in the need for His presence in my life and in all my actions. I pray in the Spirit and with understanding, and I do operate in a prophetic calling to the nations and to business leaders.
Of recent, one Scripture in particular has ministered to me. In seeing the amazing and awesome move of God on the Earth is this hour, Numbers 23:23 comes to my inner man:
“….What hath God wrought?…”
What is My Calling?
Business…perhaps the most nebulous and challenging of all the so-called seven mountains of influence. By definition, its primary, if not sole. objective is to make money, in an arena in which serving Mammon and God contend.
Businessmen and women have the Blood bought right to hear the good news of Jesus Christ whereby they can be saved and live lives freed from the “sorrows thereto” that can accompany worldly success and the chains that can enslave in its pursuit. It is to this sphere I have been called to witness and to minister to business and government leaders internationally.
Personal Status?
Currently single with no offspring.
