Publisher's Synopsis
Straight Up is my third devotional book and is the result of numerous hours of study, teaching and preaching. As I prepare messages from the Word of God and then share them, the Lord causes certain points to pop out to me. These distinct concepts stay in the forefront of my mind and the depths of my heart until I finally write them down in obedience to God's Holy Spirit. I can only liken it to childbirth. I labor greatly with the particular truth-studying, praying, and sharing with others-until I finally get the explanation down on paper in a succinct and straightforward presentation. The written devotion I consider to be the delivery. My heart is filled with gratitude for the feedback along the way that affirms each devotion's purpose in particular lives. I pray this compilation will bless your walk with Jesus. May you receive God's truth "straight up," so that your heart and life may be lifted straight up to Jesus!
