So it is not always by ones choice that they become a loner. Its just that not everyone whats more of God. I have found that often when I go out and fellowship with others, they want to talk about everything but God stuff. I really am not interested in sports. I could care less about fishing, or golf, or anything else for that matter. I want to talk about the things that accompany the Kingdom of God, and will sit all night and listen to those that will feed it to me. This make for, at times, a very lonely journey.

When I was a younger minister, Brother Jonathan Urshan Sr gave me and a few other young guys from the church a course in homiletics. It was life-changing.
He really planted a love for study in me. He referred us to EM Bounds, Arthur Pink and so many other authors who talked about prayer and real relationship with God.
EM Bounds is still a personal favorite of mine. His pamphlets on prayer are second to none.
