"There are a lot of Christians who are halfway fellows. They stand in the door, holding on to the Church with one hand while they play with the toys of the world with the other. They are in the doorway and we can't bring sinners in."

Mordecai Fowler Ham Jr., was an American Independent Baptist evangelist and temperance movement leader.

Born: 2 April 1877, Allen County, Kentucky, United States

Died: 1 November 1961, Louisville, Kentucky, United States

1)Revival Meetings: Mordecai Ham conducted numerous revival meetings throughout the United States, particularly in the Southern states, during the first half of the 20th century. These meetings were characterized by fervent preaching, emotional worship, and a focus on personal salvation.

2) Famous Convert: Billy Graham: One of the most notable aspects of Mordecai Ham's legacy is his influence on a young Billy Graham. In 1934, Billy Graham attended one of Ham's revival meetings in Charlotte, North Carolina, and made a commitment to Christianity during that event. This encounter played a pivotal role in shaping Graham's future as one of the most well-known Christian evangelists in the world.

3) Controversial Methods: Ham was known for using strong and controversial language during his sermons. His preaching style was passionate and sometimes fiery, which led to both acclaim and criticism. Despite the controversy, his charismatic approach drew large crowds to his revival meetings.

4) Educational Background: Mordecai Ham attended Wake Forest College (now Wake Forest University) in North Carolina. He initially aspired to become a lawyer but later felt a calling to Christian ministry, leading to his decision to become an evangelist.

5) Later Years: After several decades of active evangelism, Ham continued to be involved in ministry and preaching into his later years. He passed away in 1961. While he may not be as widely known as some other evangelists, his impact on individuals like Billy Graham and his contributions to the evangelical movement have left a lasting legacy.

Rock Bottom Sand Shifter

Rock bottom is a crisis, & everyone wants to avoid crisis, but what crisis means is to literally shift --like a child who goes to the beach lifts up the sand & watches all the sand fall away hoping there is treasure left over

That is what crisis does, comes into your life as you watch everything fall away that you thought you needed so you can find out what is left over & what is truly important 

Your Faith, Hope, & Love    

Those are the things in life that can't be taken away from you

That's why those who have been to rock bottom are the BRAVE ones, the KIND ones, & the WISE ones 

& the ones that can laugh at the days to come 

because they're the ones who know that the only things you really need are also the things that can't be taken away from you!

What a blessing it is to see 2018. Many did not make it. Everyday is a a blessing. As I reflect over year 2017, I can say once again I overcame many obstacles, although I'm still fighting, I know my favor and my faith has always gotten me through. Still grateful for those blessings and lessons. One thing I always say is: everything happens for a reason, it is what it is and it's going to be what it is going to be. It is the main reason I look for the good in everything and everyone. I try my hardest not to judge, to forgive, and stay humble. This year my anger about how people are, their lies, and judgement, betrayals, and my lack of patience has been the hardest fight. The enemy will use who and what he can to get to you. Yet I am still learning and trying to stay focus on the bigger picture. Man will fail you every time. #ButGod ���� #WontHeDoIt #HeSaidHeWould #ITrustHimAtAllTimes #ImAmazed #ILoveYouJesus I can only pray for better days🙏🏽 to be a better woman of God. Be the queen I that I am 👑 #HisGraceAndMercy #HeWillNeverForsakeMe 😢 #Selah #PeaceOfMind #PrayUp #Humble #FaithfulLife #QueenMe #TheYearOfOverflow #AmericanQueenIAm👑 Fill me up Lord, until I overflow, I want to run over... Amen Y'all be blessed in the name of the Lord. Hallelujah 👐 (at Downtown Columbia, South Carolina)

I‘m not convinced that I am shy. . But I am often socially awkward. . And that often causes me grief. . Take last weekend. If you will, my grand entrance to international public speaking. . A big honour. . Bringing with it smart clothing (I‘m a tee shirt and jeans gal) which made me a wee but self conscious. . And a message which dug deep into challenges I‘ve overcome. True, overcome. And yet a close call when it comes to vulnerability and intimacy. . Andrea. Raw, not naked. . But I felt bare. . And the biggest surprise? . The week AFTER. . The rising tension in my stomach is unreal. . Over the weekend I will see people from the event likely and it makes me angsty. . It‘s time to take my thoughts captive. Again. Renew my mind. . Why? . If God is with me, who can be against me? . Whom then shall I fear? . Seriously. . No one. . Thank you Jesus! . #verilymoment #onamission #deeplyrooted #fullyhis #faithfullyhis #whomthenshallifear #ivebeenredeemed #godwithus #godwithme #thankyoujesus #ifgathering #womenintheword #togodbetheglory #itisfinished #womanofgod #daughteroftheking #jesuslover #godlife #faithfullife #lifewaywomen #gritandvirtue #propelwomen #lampandlight #itiswell #titus2woman #goodnewsfeed #graceupongrace #wellwateredwoman

My girl Sarah Jakes Roberts said it best: Lord make the people who are not for me, say things like, "I don't want to call her, she's not fun no more," and when they do, help me not to be wounded. Because if they cannot connect to where I am going then we might as well end it right now. Only YOU know the plans YOU have for me and if they do not fit in the plan, let it end Lord. I am in the season where I can't handle distractions... You're either for me or against me. Being on the fence of where we are kinda friends but not friends... Time for setting up boundaries. You don't have to be connected to me. You're still covered by the blood and have access to the kingdom but just not connected to me. I won't strink to make people more comfortable. I found myself and I'm still learning more each day. One thing people should know is that I am a great investment. Because when you invest in me, your life gets better and you increase because of who I am. I am not living life on my own but I'm living life for a king. And when you invest in me, you invest in the kingdom and you become a part of royalty. 👑 #MorningThoughts #StillHumble #Selah #PeaceOfMind #PrayUp #Humble #FaithfulLife #QueenMe #AmericanQueenIAm #Favor #BlessedUp #TeamFaith #TheKing @sarahjakesroberts 😍😗 thank you ma'am (at Columbia, South Carolina)
