I am a Christian/Christ-Follower, Husband, Father of 2, pet owner of a dog & 2 cats and Senior Pastor of North Hills Church (PCA) in Meridianville, AL (just north of Huntsville) since 2009.
- Bachelor of Arts in Religion from The University of Georgia

For more about me you can read “My Story“.
The title of this blog comes from a story in the Gospel of Mark (Mark 9:24 – “I believe. Help my unbelief.”). I have always been struck by the idea of belief and unbelief co-residing in our hearts and feel my own need to cry out to Jesus the way the father in this story does.

I was feeling very lonely and I went to my computer and typed in JESUS HELP and the MY UNBELIEF part was in the column a little lower.
I needed to be helped. I needed something.
I was just sitting and crying out to GOD.
I told my mother recently I felt like I was in my own personal GARDEN of GETHSEMANE.
And then I see this.
I just wept and prayed along as I read.
I know others are blessed to, but I really wish I could be there to thank you in person for choosing the field you chose.
I started out wanting to be an artist, then a minister……now I am a hairdresser.
I am all over the place.
Maybe God was ok with any of these choices….I am so confused sometimes.
I ask myself, “is this it?”
But then I realize that God STILL has PLANS for me.
My unbelief is a stumbling block…..
Oh Lord, Help My Unbelief!
Now I will wait, and he will help.
That’s how it works isn’t it.
It helped me to read your good site.
Again, Thank you.
It is good to get things in order.
God is first……then everything else just comes AFTER THAT.
I suppose I was putting my concerns and worries at the TOP of the List…..I am replacing that with GOD…and asking him to SHOW me how to live better and love more.
