Webmaster's Preface

It was between the years of 1977 and 1980...while I was attending Southern California College in Costa Mesa, CA.

Step Eleven: GIVE UP!

At the end of Step Two (“Do The Right Thing”) I mentioned that there was a better way to live right besides being engaged in a constant struggle with your conscience and your sinful nature.

Step Nine: Stop Watching History, Start Making History!

I love going to the cinema. I love renting good-quality videos and DVDs.

Step Eight: Read Your Bible!

Unless you have read through the entire Holy Bible (I'm reading through the Bible for my sixth time) and have made it the Foundation of your education, You are an enemy of God in your mind.

Step Seven: Stop Talking, Start Listening!

In The Traveler's Oasis Book I, Messages 31-34 (“Between The Sheets”) I have a series on prayer that I encourage you to read. In it I list the three elements vital to a joyful prayer life:

tep Six: Stop Complaining, Start Giving Thanks!

Here's a question for you:

tep Five: Stop Asking For Worship, Start Giving It—To God!

As a result of being a sinner, each human being suffers under the delusion that they are the most important person in their own life (and everyone else's).

Step Four: Make Time To Be Alone—With God!

Time. Despite the evidence of history and the dictates of logic and reason, in our hearts we believe that we will live forever.

Step Three: Make Peace With God!

Before we continue I want to say that it is assumed you are following these Steps in their proper order, an order that I received from God Himself. I have done (and continue to practice) all of these Steps as I have given them to you.

Step Two: Do The Right Thing

First of all, let me start off by saying our idea of righteousness is pathetic compared to God's Righteousness. Even if humanity had never sinned we would still have no legitimate excuse to boast before God.
