Jesus saves sinners, of which Am I, so today, tomorrow, forever, I rejoice that on a old rugged cross my Savior suffered, bled and died!

Sometimes the loudest voice holding us back isn’t the world’s it’s our own. We wear labels like “not enough,” “too broken,” “unqualified,” and start to believe them. But God has a way of rewriting stories. My new book “Why Not You” is a reminder that your limitations don’t disqualify you they’re the very places God wants to display His power. Don’t let your label become your lid. For pre-order and more information head to whynotyoubook.com

Wanted to say “thank you” for so many of you that took the opportunity to preorder my new book last week, and as we ramp up to the official launch of the book of it November 11, 2025 every week of preorders makes a dent in the publishing world. So big “thank you again”! It’s been beyond encouraging to see a message that God gave me in the lowest moments of my life could be such an uplift for so many people. So for the person who feels a tremendous pain, or experiencing a serious defeat, or a paralyzing fear, or a lingering shame! God speaks a better word over you today, tomorrow and forever! God is for you! So believe today… God wants to redeem you, tell a better story through you! WHY NOT YOU! *********************************************** Check out whynotyoubook.com to see participating retailers or do as we all do, just go to Amazon.com and search “why not you”!

Family, my heart is full. After years of prayer, study, and countless conversations with the Lord, Why Not You? is finally here. This isn’t just a book, it’s a testimony of God’s faithfulness and a reminder that His plans for you are greater than your doubts, fears, or limitations. My prayer is that as you turn these pages, you’ll hear God’s voice louder than the lies of the enemy. That you’ll begin to see yourself the way He sees you…chosen, loved, and equipped for a purpose far bigger than you can imagine. Why not you? Why not now? It’s an honor to share this journey with you. Why Not You? is officially available for PRE-ORDER starting today Pre-order your copy today at whynotyoubook.com

When the world creates a solution in ideologies that seek to fix problems by only further dividing us, then we have to ask the question...when will we turn to God as the one with the solution to fix the problem of division! The is answer not more labels, not more categories, the answer is the one thing we all have in common! We have ALL sinned! And the greatest threat to humanity is SIN! Thus, JESUS a perfect savior for sinners, that makes us one as sons and daughters. This is one clip from an entire sermon, please go back and watch the entirety for more context and clarity!

Don’t chase your blessing, CLAIM IT‼️

“The blood of the martyr is the seed of revival” Augustine. 49 Christians martyred, so many more unreported in recent days, weeks and months. Anyone asking the question, why is it only Christians that are being targeted at this level? Just one of many thoughts… Because the very doctrine of Jesus being the only Savior, the only way of salvation is foolishness to those who are perishing… Fueled by the teaching of radical Islam, there is an actual belief that what took place with the 49 Christians is a service to their god, and that the “so called blasphemy” of the movement of Jesus must be stopped in death to defend their god. My response… 1 Cor. 15: Oh death where is your sting. Oh death where is your victory! It’s been swallowed in the grave AND thanks be to God who has given us this victory in Jesus Christ! To those who chose NOT to renounce their faith in Christ and pay the highest price of sacrifice for our King! Your boldness causes us to not back down, not be ashamed, and never bow a knee and confess anyone is savior except JESUS CHRIST. To those who face internet persecution, societal pressures, relational fractures, all for the sake of Christ, consider the worth of Christ to the 49. You are not alone and most of all JESUS is and always will be worth it! Thank you @opendoorsus for bringing awareness.

Slime Time at PreTeen Hang!

We cannot win the world with our spare time and our spare change.

When you fall short, it’s easy to assume God has walked away. That somehow your mistake pushed Him too far. That your failure was the final straw. But that’s not who He is. God does not abandon His people. He does not leave when you mess up. He is not distant when you stumble. He draws near when your heart is heavy. He is closest when you feel the furthest. God is not waiting on the other side of perfection. He meets you in the middle of the mess. He does not cancel your calling when you fall. He doesn’t rip up the plan and throw it away. He helps you pick up the pieces and start again. That is the power of grace. When you repent, when you turn your heart back to Him, the path is never blocked. The door is never shut. You can return to the purpose He has called you to walk in. Sometimes we let guilt and shame hold us back, like we have to stay on the sidelines to prove something. But God is not asking for punishment; He is asking for surrender. He’s asking you to come back, to bring it all to Him, and let Him restore what was broken. Your mistakes may feel loud, but His mercy is louder. The truth is, you are going to fall short sometimes. You are going to get it wrong. But falling short does not mean you are finished. God is a Redeemer. He uses broken people to carry out beautiful stories. You are not disqualified. You are not forgotten. You are not too far gone. If you’ve messed up, come back. If you feel stuck, reach out. If you feel like you’ve failed, remember this: God has not left. He is still here. Still calling you. Still believing in what He created you to become. You don’t have to stay where you are. You can get back up and walk in the life God has for you. He’s not done with you yet. 📲For more, download the Ed Newton Ministries App

What a gift to stand shoulder to shoulder with our global team and hear firsthand how our team has been serving in Kerville. Even more powerful? Hearing the stories of faith, resilience, and hope from our family right here in the Hill Country. Jesus is on the move—near and far!

Over 6,000 CBCers mobilized across San Antonio this weekend! Love SA is more than an event, it’s a movement. Serving is what we do best, and it’s how we show the love of Jesus to our city and beyond. We’re also continuing to stand with Kerr County, not just financially, but with boots on the ground, helping people in their greatest time of need. Our next Saturday Serve is August 9th, stay tuned for how to get involved. We love San Antonio! ❤️

No more back and forth, ALL IN‼️

You were never meant to do this life alone!

#WHYNOTYOU coming this fall.

FOR LOVE.

Zacchaeus was loaded, but he was also lonely
