about | the TASK

The TASK comes from the Apostle Paul’s words in Acts chapter 20: “I do not count my life of any value nor as precious to myself, my only aim is to finish the race and complete the task that I have received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the grace of GOD.”

Through sermons, writings, poems, and prayers, the TASK seeks to humbly and faithfully testify to the grace and love of GOD.

Through this effort, may GOD alone be glorified.

Praise GOD from whom all blessings flow!

Welcome to the TASK– an ongoing mission to testify to the gospel of the grace of GOD.

As a pastor and a preacher, I love to tell stories- and I have a passion for using my stories and life experiences, however exciting or mundane, to highlight the grace and love of God in everyday life!

I hope you find these writings, many of which were originally prepared as sermons, meaningful and faithful. Thank you for stopping by!
