Welcome to "Deep Calling to Deep." After walking with Jesus for most of my life and spending many of those years in ministry (Pastoral, Seminar Speaker, etc) I realize more and more that the depth of my relationship with Jesus comes as He calls to the depths of my soul to dive deeper into Him. In other words, the deep things of Jesus call out to the deep things in my soul...hence, the scriptural truth..."deep calling to deep." He calls to me throw His scripture, scriptural teaching, spiritual relationships and sometimes the circumstances of life. The question is, "Do I have ears to hear?" That is the reason for this blog...to open another avenue of hearing and speaking to enhance deep calling to deep. Don't get the idea that this site will be a quicksand of academic theology...there are many wonderful places to dive into that. This is a place to allow the truths of scripture to interact with the stuff of life. I find that the best way to teach people is to show them how the teachings of Jesus have affected me personally and how they can do the same for them. This seems to be the most effective in the realm of dialogue...yes, you and I talking to one another about going deeper with Jesus.
All of this is based on a simple spiritual fact...you will go as deep with Jesus as you desire. If you are "comfortable" where you are, Jesus will not push you under. He respects our free will although He wants us to experience blessings that dwell in the depth of His soul. Do you want to go after those blessings"? I do. In fact I live for them and I spend my life traveling across the country encouraging, teaching and sharing with churches and individuals about going deeper with Jesus! So, I will periodically post items on this site to promote, challenge, encourage and awaken the deep things of your soul. I hope you will do the same as we grow deeper together by allowing the deep things of God to call to the depth of our souls! Let's dive!
