Failures
9apr15 Failures (Por favor, desplácese hasta la parte inferior de la traducción española) (please scroll down to the bottom for spanish translation) Denis and his 6 sisters were taken by Mi Familia, a government organization. I feel like a failure. Good thing the word FAILURE is a Dean word, and not a God Word! I […]
Sin
14mar15 Sin (desplácese hacia abajo para español) The spanish word for ‘without’ is ‘sin’. Interesting, isn’t it? ‘Without’ is a great discription of sin. Doing something without God’s approval (sinning) usually leaves you without a lot of things. Spouses, health, homes, possessions, money, happiness, friends etc. all tend to disappear when someone begins to let […]

What is my definition of who we are?
My feeble definition of our ministry is doing something without an agenda or motives, for the good of someone else. Just my take on it. Winnie is my example. She´s quiet, industrious, righteous, and gets it done. You don´t even know what she´s doing, but you see a LOT of people being blessed. She doesn´t even […]

Who and What is being called?
Calling is a funny word. This is Dean, and this is just my personal observations. I think most people “called” feel like it´s not such a good thing, but it really is. Bottom line, it isn’t a decision. It´s what you have going on inside you, directed from God. Churches all have one thing in […]
