Wealthiest Place on Earth
I’m Dr. Bob and for just a Mentoring Minute, I want to talk to you about the wealthiest place on earth. A friend told me he heard Pastor Miles Monroe say the wealthiest place on earth is the graveyard. Here is what he meant. Too many people live as if they can take the wealth…

Don’t Tell God…
I’m Dr. Bob and for just a mentoring minute, I want to share something that is certainly not original with me, but it is well worth repeating. Here it is. Do not tell God how big your storm is. Tell your storm how big your God is. Matthew 8:23-26 (NKJV) says, “Now when He got…

One Part Joy
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
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…

Fruit that bears Fruit
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…

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…

Swimming with Sharks
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…

Duck In, Duck Out
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
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
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…
