One Part Joy

Dr. Bob — Mon, 06 Sep 2010 14:32:57 +0000

I’m Dr. Bob and for just a mentoring minute I want to give you a recipe for a taste of the good life. Get a pen. You might want to write this down. Start with one part joy. It puts strength into the mix (as long as it’s the joy of the Lord). Then add [...]

You will Never Know

Dr. Bob — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 12:15:16 +0000

You’ll never know if you never go. I’m Dr. Bob and for just a mentoring minute, I want to ask if you were called to go, but have insisted that it had to fit into what you established as your convenient, self-serving, self-assuring timetable. I know that sounds harsh, but is it possible you might find [...]

Fruit that bears Fruit

Dr. Bob — Tue, 31 Aug 2010 13:24:25 +0000

I’m Dr. Bob, and for just a mentoring minute I want to share a thought with an eternal perspective. In John 15:16 (NKJV), Jesus said, “You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the [...]

Lighten the Load

Dr. Bob — Fri, 13 Aug 2010 11:55:13 +0000

I’m Dr. Bob and for just a mentoring minute, I want to ask if you ever have that sinking feeling? If so, you may need to lighten your load. Are you ready and willing to do so? I am reminded of the lesson from Acts, Chapter 27, when the Apostle Paul was shipwrecked. When the [...]

The “If” Factor

Dr. Bob — Sat, 07 Aug 2010 14:30:50 +0000

I’m Dr. Bob and for just a mentoring minute, I want to ask you, “What if?” You are probably thinking, “What if what? Well, what if we all had a positive response to obey all the “Ifs” God presents us with in the Bible? Deuteronomy, Chapter 28 tells us that obedience to Biblical “ifs” results [...]

Swimming with Sharks

Dr. Bob — Sun, 01 Aug 2010 11:55:49 +0000

I’m Dr. Bob and for just a mentoring minute, I’d like to ask if you would enjoy swimming with sharks? Sounds like a ridiculous question, doesn’t it? Personally, I don’t want anything to do with sharks. I know that when a shark strikes, it is quick, violent and deadly. I cannot imagine anyone wanting to [...]

Cloud Climber, Faith Flyer

Dr. Bob — Fri, 09 Jul 2010 12:53:10 +0000

I’m Dr. Bob and for just a mentoring minute I want to ask if you have ever considered climbing the clouds and flying with God? Yes, you can climb the clouds! Yes, you can fly with God. Does this sound a bit far fetched? It is simply lines up with what Jesus said. In Matthew [...]

Duck In, Duck Out

Dr. Bob — Mon, 05 Jul 2010 14:51:28 +0000

I’m Dr. Bob and for just a mentoring minute I want to ask how you would describe your attitude when you go to church? Do you come because of a sense of obligation? Do you attend just because your family does? If this or other similar reasons are the case, you are probably just ducking [...]

Change Your Filters

Dr. Bob — Thu, 01 Jul 2010 13:08:17 +0000

I’m Dr. Bob and for just a mentoring minute, I’d like to ask if you find yourself making too many bad decisions? If so, it may be time to change your filters. Perhaps you need something different to filter your thoughts through. Try installing the principles of James 3:13-17 as the filter for what you [...]

Spiritual Junkyard

Dr. Bob — Mon, 28 Jun 2010 13:49:43 +0000

I’m Dr. Bob and for just a mentoring minute I want to talk a little trash with you. I recently heard someone’s life described as a spiritual junkyard. It was a life tragically used up and rejected because of sinful, destructive behaviors and habits. The person’s life was trashed, seemingly destined for a forgotten, wasted [...]
