Just Drive the Bus
I’m Dr. Bob and for just a mentoring minute, I want to assure you that you do not need someone to affirm the quality of your driving. Just drive your bus. The people will be waiting. Let them on. Let them off. Just focus on the task to which God has called you. Yes, there will…

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…

Treasure or Trash?
I’m Dr. Bob, and for just a mentoring minute I want to ask you to take a look at what’s in your heart. Is there anything there that you covet as a treasure, but it’s really trash ? Think about it. Ask yourself, if what you have given a treasured place in your heart is…

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…

Just a Little Bit More
I’m Dr. Bob and for just a mentoring minute, I want to encourage you to ask God for just a little bit more – to be just a little bit more like Him, and to have just a little bit more of Him. Yes, He has no problem with your asking. It is as good…

Just a Little bit Less
I’m Dr. Bob and for just a mentoring minute, I want to encourage you to ask God to help you allow just a little bit less of those things He finds offensive into your life. What am I saying? Well, make your prayers specific. Ask Him to help you put off, or remove those things…

Just Too Little
I’m Dr. Bob and for just a mentoring minute I want to ask you whether your thinking is just too little to take you, your hopes, your dreams and even your relationships from where they are to where they could be? What is there that holds you back from your destiny… or even just the…

Lighten the Load
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…

Golden Delicious
I’m Dr. Bob and I want to ask if you have ever enjoyed a nicely ripened Golden Delicious apple? I find apples to be tasty and satisfying, especially when I have one of those mid-afternoon cravings for something special. Now I normally like chocolate, but there are times when nothing but a good apple will…

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…
