Renewing My Focus for 2026: Cultivate Disciples--All In for the Gospel

I turn 55 this year. With heart disease always in the background, I’m acutely aware that I’m not getting any younger. I’ve lived more years than I likely have left. That reality doesn’t discourage me—it clarifies me.

If the Lord allows me to keep walking, I want to walk with intention. I want to go out with a bang—not for my name, but for His.
Over the years, I’ve distilled my life down to four overriding goals. I call it my personal life mission statement:

  • Delight in Christ.
  • Embody Scripture.
  • Cultivate Disciples.
  • Persevere to the End.

These aren’t slogans to me. They are anchors—guardrails that help me decide how I spend my time, energy, and remaining years. I’m not perfect, and I struggle with sin just like the next person, but I’m deeply thankful for God’s redeeming grace that sustains me, restores me, and keeps me moving forward in Christ.

Looking Back: Delighting in Christ 
In 2025, my primary focus was Delighting in Christ. I wanted to slow down, re-calibrate my heart, and remember that ministry flows from intimacy, not activity. That focus was needed—and it will remain needed. And yet, if I’m honest, I fell far short of where I wanted to be. At least in my own mind.
