A Tribute to My Mother

Written by , Posted in Uncategorized

Abraham Lincoln once said, “No man is poor who had a godly mother.” Indeed, my mother, Sharon E. Law, loved the Lord Jesus Christ, and everyone knew it. Her deposits in the lives of her four children and many, many others are priceless treasures.

She was 17 when I was born and from my earliest recollections, there was never a time when I did not sense her love, protection, sacrifice, care, and generosity. I’m the oldest of four children born to Jim and Sharon Law who were married for nearly 58 years until this week when she passed from this life into the presence of her Lord. Nothing but everlasting love and gratitude fill my heart upon every remembrance of her. I offer this post as an initial tribute with more to come.

Please pray for our family as we meet this Sunday, December 4th, 2022 to give glory to God for her life and the hope we know through Jesus Christ our Lord. The funeral service will be offered through Livestream on the Troutman Baptist Church, Troutman, NC, YouTube channel.

Life on Altar: The Life We Are Called to Live

Written by , Posted in Uncategorized

Life on the Altar: The Life We Are Called to Live (LOTA) is now available! A year ago I began a series of blogs entitled, “Life on the Altar,” and I shared that I would be putting these posts into a book in the summer and fall of 2021. I am thankful to announce that the book has come together by God’s grace, and I pray for His glory.

I will be promoting the book in the coming weeks. I hope you will consider reading it and passing it on to others. Also, If you are able to leave a favorable review on Amazon, I would appreciate that as well. Thank you friends for your support during the writing process. I believe strongly in the message of this book and pray that it will be a rich blessing to you.

You can pre-order through Amazon here: https://amzn.to/3nRrQjI. The “Look Inside” feature on Amazon is forthcoming. Also available at Barnes & Nobles, https://rb.gy/q4kya.
