Disclaimer: This is not an endorsement of sort for Bro Eddie.  Could a Christian President finally solve our problems? Year 2004 I was in Luneta chanting ” Bro Eddie, bro Eddie!!!” I had a supernatural experience standing backstage looking at the millions of people in Luneta that day. No it wasn’t Bro Eddie will win the elections – it was a call to preach the gospel like never before to a multitude who have never heard of the good news. I knew that if I remain faithful in my call to preach and disciple the nation I would have done...

Okay – this is not a TONY ROBBINSish blog or a new age blog. This is also not a blog on how I was able to marry a beautiful woman This is how we get to attract people to volunteer in church. 1. VISION – it should be a big vision. People want to matter so your vision has to matter if you want to attract people to serve. 2. LEADER – people have to love the leader or they won’t last. I have seen this happen in some circles. They love the vision, they rallied behind the leader but found out later that the leader is not worth following....

As much as I exercise my right to vote and to pray for this nation – the whole election...

Empowered Disciples is the New Big. The way to get big is not thorugh numeric goals or counting the weekly attendance but asking “Have I empowered the church to be disciples in their culture and in their world?” The mistake a lot of churches make is that they try to box discipleship to look like a certain way. Discipleship is only when you become a small group leader! Discipleship is when you finish a certain course in Bible School! Discipleship happens once a week when you meet with your small group! But empowered disciples knows that discipleship...

Never underestimate a NEAT person. Neatness is a key to productivity. When you clean your workspace, you feel you are on top of things. It increases your effectiveness and productivity. Go to your office and before sitting, look at your desk and ask this question: What kind of a person works in this desk?

Now – am I sounding like your mother. Maybe the saying...

The past month has really been interesting: Mikey Arroyo who dug his own grave by admitting in public TV that he stole the people’s money and told us to just sue him if we have a problem. Serena Williams shouting at the line judge that he would shove the ball in her throat Joe Wilson shouting at national TV that Obama was a liar. Of course, Kanye West’s “Beyonce’s video is the best!” remark to Taylor Swift In a world where they tell us to speak our minds why did this 4 personalities who spoke their minds received such negative...

Here is how to pay off your debt: 1. List all your debts in order of the smallest to largest balance. Yup even your sari sari store debts. All means all. Debts from your relatives, friends, 0% interest debts, ALL. 2. Pay off the small debts first, then the big debts. Why? Dave Ramsey said that finance is 80% behavior, 20% knowledge. We want to start modifying your behavior. Once you get small wins you get excited to tackle the bigger ones. 3. Put all extra income into paying off those debts. Tips, salary raise, gifts – ALL! 4. Keep paying the minimum...
