2016 Love Riot Tour – Newsboys (Graham Saber)

I have been blessed to be a part of some really great concerts.  From Jay-Z to Kanye West in the hip-hop world to Alicia Keys and Taylor Swift in the pop world.  I have also experienced the Holy Spirit move in Christian Concerts.  There has always been one Christian concert that has always been above and beyond any and that was by Superchick.  I absolutely loved that group and i can vividly remember feeling the Holy Spirit moving in me that day.  I never thought i would be fortunate to feel that way again…then i was blessed again to be part of the group that was in the Macon Collesium for the Newsboys 2016 – Love Riot Tour.

Graham Saber – First ACT

I will not pretend to act like i knew who Graham Saber was BEFORE this concert and judging by the lack of a Wiki page, I am not the only one.  I will tell you that i am a huge fan of his AFTER the concert.  When his name was announced, my kids asked who is that and by the end of the concert, my girls were asking why they haven’t heard about him until tonight and all i can say to that is that is an excellent question.  I am a hip hop person by default and when i heard If Money Didn’t Matter, I already knew i would be a fan of his for life.  Graham’s new album entitled All We Fought For is an album that will be on repeat at work, home, car, gym, etc. for a very long time.  AWFF is a song on that smooth tip that brings home the message of the love of God.  On the track Rollercoaster he drops the line “underachieving like i play for the thunder”, i knew his world play rivals any present hip hop artist.  Graham is an artist that we need to educate the masses about.  His music is second to none and the message is what is needed in today’s world.  My girls favorite song is Here, Now (the drums is absolutely sick).  Thanks Newsboys for introducing Graham to us.  We look forward to hearing more from him.   Do yourself a favor and know him and his songs soon so when he blows up, you can say you were a fan from the beginning.  Put him on the radio K LOVE RADIO!!!

You can find the review on The Afters here.  Next Up – Ryan Stevenson (He was only the second act!), and Newsboys.
God Bless All.  Lets share the talen to Graham Saber

A Little Christian Perspective On Life



For the past month, I have been so preoccupied with earthly problems. The problem with earthly problems is that is takes away focus from what is really important.  All the time I have worried about earthly situations have prevented me from focusing on furthering the kingdom of God. 

What about you?  Have you been preoccupied with temporary things that have taken your eyes off what is eternal? Let’s all get back to keeping our eyes focused on God. 

Greetings from a hot Manila!

Today God Said Hi.

I love seeing the Lord in the little things. This was the view this morning from the beautiful island of Guam. One of my favorite stories in the bible growing up as a little kid. Noah and the ark and it all ended with a rainbow.

Have a good day everyone and to all in the east coast of the USA…stay warm!!!

Typhoon Hagupit (Ruby) – Final

Check back often for updates before, during, and after the typhoon has passed. God be with us all.

I am writing this from manila with regular communication with people in the Visayas region (expected landfall area).

Final Update
12/8/12 11:00 pm EST
Well the typhoon has come and pass and to be honest, it was uneventful in Manila. The city did a really good job in making sure that everyone that needed to be evacuated got the help they needed. The problem now going forward is that some people who evacuated and checked into shelters saw little or no effects from the typhoon. They may be stubborn and not pay attention to future earnings.

Update 5

Buildings are now covered with rain clouds as compared to previous pics.

Picture taken 10 mins later. Rain has now completely covered makati.

Update 4

Worst of the typhoon should be hitting manila in about 12 hours. Was told winds will be around 50-90 kph but rains can be torrential possibly leading to flash floods. If you know manila, you know that will be a certainty. It’s an overcast day. Schools are cancelled today and private sector jobs have the option to cancel today as well (most have).

View of Manila Golf and Country Club from Global City. It’s hot and to be honest people here are not at all worried about the typhoon. They are saying that the the worst of the storm will be arriving tonight.

Update 2

Some are taking this typhoon seriously, most aren’t. We have ballroom dancing at Market Market in Global City as the typhoon makes landfall in Samar. Typhoon is expected to be in our general area within the day.

Give thanks to our lord and savior for sparing this country from devastating forces. The Philippines be blessed.

Update 1

Breakfast stroll around Makati at the Salcedo Saturday Market. Lots of people here. No one is worried about the upcoming typhoon around this area.

12/5/14 – 6:15 pm EST

Well, I certainly picked a good time to have a business trip in Manila. Expecting winds around a 122 mph (197kph) and I am staying on the 16th floor in a condo. I’m flying back to Guam on Monday but based on the Storm track models, that seems to be unlikely. PLEASE PRAY FOR THE PHILIPPINES. The path of this storm is similar to that of Super Typhoon Yolanda.
