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…

Where Are You?
I’m Dr. Bob and for just a mentoring minute, I want you to consider three questions. Here’s the first question. It was God’s question to Adam. He asked, “Where are you?” We know God knew Adam’s location. There was a deeper meaning. The question exposed the problem. Adam had sinned and now his relationship with…

A Sugar-Free God
I’m Dr. Bob and for just a mentoring minute, I want to ask if you treat God as if He was like a drink on a fast-food menu – a sugar-free God. We can be like a person who drives to a fast food restaurant, orders a double cheeseburger with a large order of fries,…

Wet Water Walker
I’m Dr. Bob and for just a mentoring minute, I’d like to encourage you to get out of the boat and follow your faith. Until and unless you do, you will never realize the fullness of your life’s possibilities. Go ahead, get your feet wet! Yes, you will begin to sink from time to time.…

Happy Lips
I’m Dr. Bob and for just a mentoring minute I want to ask if you would like to know a valuable secret? Sure you would! Everyone likes a secret, especially one as valuable as this. The secret is… happy lips! Yes, happy lips! Psalm 63:3-5 says, “Because Your lovingkindness is better than life, my lips…

Just Because – One More Thing
I’m Dr. Bob, and for just a mentoring minute I want to add one more thing to my previous thoughts on the subject of “Just Because.” I cannot let it go without encouraging you that you ought to add a significant truthful revelation from Scripture to your answer when you are asked, “Why you follow…

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…

The Rest of the Story
I’m Dr. Bob and for just a mentoring minute I want to talk about the rest of the story. Have you ever been totally in the dark, without a clue about what’s coming next or how things are going to end? I have found myself there many times. What I learned is that I may…
