That little guy to the left is the reason why I started trying to help others through tough times and creating a book proposal. That pokey thing is a cancer cell.
In April of 2009, I was diagnosed with cancer. Cancer has no middle ground – it’s either life or death. It was simple: cling to my faith in God … and start praying!
I found new ways to pray. I developed 7 successful habits for Christians.
Did I mentioned that I prayed?
By God’s grace, I survived, came out of remission and then went back into remission! I believe I’m still alive to help others understand how God wants you to draw closer to him during tough times.
I wanted to share what I knew about my Christian faith to help others who might be facing similar or greater challenges. But it’s not all about cancer.
I began to speak at churches, small groups, halftime of basketball games, homeless shelters – all the while trying to help others fight their own “Goliaths,” using the five “stones” I found valuable:

- The Bible
- Prayer
- Faith
- Church
- Love
I’m currently writing a book about these five tactics and how they can help you survive tough times.You can help me help others by subscribing for blog updates.
Thanks for reading! You can also follow me on Twitter here.
