I am the husband of one and the homeschooling father of five. I am a singer, songwriter, and a worship leader who plays guitar and piano. I am the Executive Director of Trinity Arts Center, a small Christian Arts Academy in Eastern Tennessee. I'm also a guitar teacher and -- I spend about half my time building web sites and helping companies organize their thoughts, fine tune their products, and turn their customers into company evangelists. I've been involved with four music projects in my life -- Hot Pink Turtle, Spin Radio, Stand Like Stone, and of course, Jamin Rathbun. I'm also training to be an Ultimate Fighter (that's not true). = )
John 14:21
Whoever has my commands and obeys them, he is the one who loves me. He who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love him and show myself to him.
Whoever has my commands and obeys them, he is the one who loves me. He who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love him and show myself to him.
Whoever has my commands and obeys them, he is the one who loves me...
I found that passage today as part of Tozer on Christian Leadership: A 366 Day Devotional.
"If God gives you a watch, are you honoring Him more by asking Him what time it is or by simply consulting the watch?"
"Salvation is from our side a choice, from the divine side it is a seizing upon, an apprehending, a conquest by the Most High God. Our "accepting" and "willing" are reactions rather than actions. The right of determination must always remain with God."
"The devil is a better theologian than any of us and is a devil still."
"The vague and tenuous hope that God is too kind to punish the ungodly has become a deadly opiate for the consciences of millions."

Sorry I don't have references -- I googled several of these quotes but didn't have much luck finding sources. You'll just have to read his stuff to find them. = )
