TLP Story
Twenty-nine years ago, I planted a church in Orange County. I moved my five children to Fountain Valley and started the church in our home. We had a fruitful ministry, and I thought I would be a lead pastor for the rest of my life. Over ten years ago, I wrote my first book, Total Life Pursuit, and I knew that I would somehow have a national ministry. God told us to merge with another church seven years ago, and we together became The Sound. I was not the lead pastor of that church, and those growing pains caused much growth in me. The lead pastor of The Sound declared that I would have an international ministry. During the COVID shutdown, I began preparing more for Total Life Pursuit to become a ministry to the nations. In the midst of it all, God told me that my life was about to change, and I would like it. At the end of last year, I stepped up my preparations for launch as my responsibilities at The Sound became less and less.
​
I have been traveling and ministering in a dozen different cities for the last year. I have been doing what God has told me to do, except my sole support was from the generous pastor and council of The Sound. They believe in what I am doing and have supported me financially and in other ways to enable Lora and me to bring the Kingdom of God in a unique and fresh way to many different places. I always seem to be able to speak into pastors' lives, whether as a group or as individuals. Pastors need someone to come alongside them and encourage them. They need strengthening. It is my honor to be someone who does that.
​
Beginning January 1, 2023, the financial picture will change for me. No longer will I be supported on a monthly basis by The Sound. To be sure, they have generously set me up for success, and I can see God's hand in all He has done for me through The Sound. This transition that has been happening will be complete. I will no longer be employed by a church but by Total Life Pursuit. This is scary and exciting at the same time. Honestly, I can't believe this is happening, and I am so excited. It is my passion. I love doing this! I have three conferences planned in the first two months in which I am the keynote speaker, plus speaking in Mexico City and Huntsville, AL. This is just the beginning.
​
I now realize what God spoke to me in 2020 is coming to and has come to fruition. This is not a traditional ministry model, but it is God's plan for me. I get to travel to places and love people in practical ways. I need more open doors, more connections, and more funding. I am confident that God will do everything He has told me He would do.
​
I hope this story does more than inspire you to give. I hope it inspires you to live! To live in such a way that you leave behind mediocre in every area of life and press towards living the remarkable life Jesus came to give you. I pray that you find your life mission, but more than that, your assignments that change from time to time as mine has. I am in the last third of my life and believe it will be the most productive and impacting 30 years. I pray the same for you. If you are not to your last third yet, I pray that you will accept the challenge of the Spirit to go where He sends you.
