In December 2013, we established a radio program called Preparing the Way, which was a worldwide radio broadcast via the Internet dedicated to preparing the way for the imminent return of our Lord Jesus Christ in repentance, preaching holiness, righteous, and truth. While the program is no longer actively airing, we do have the archived episodes listed below, as well as music videos.

Scriptural Basis
As the Scripture says:

"A voice is calling, 'Clear the way for the LORD in the wilderness; Make smooth in the desert a highway for our God. Let every valley be lifted up, And every mountain and hill be made low; And let the rough ground become a plain, And the rugged terrain a broad valley; Then the glory of the LORD will be revealed, And all flesh will see it together; For the mouth of the LORD has spoken.'" (Isa 40:3-5)

“And all flesh will see the salvation of God.'" (Luk 3:6)

"Get yourself up on a high mountain, O Zion, bearer of good news, Lift up your voice mightily, O Jerusalem, bearer of good news; Lift it up, do not fear. Say to the cities of Judah, 'Here is your God!' Behold, the Lord GOD will come with might, With His arm ruling for Him. Behold, His reward is with Him And His recompense before Him."  (Isa 40:9-10)

“Pass through, pass through the gates! Prepare the way for the people. Build up, build up the highway! Remove the stones. Raise a banner for the nations.  The Lord has made proclamation to the ends of the earth: ‘Say to Daughter Zion, “See, your Savior comes! See, his reward is with him, and his recompense accompanies him.”’ They will be called the Holy People, the Redeemed of the Lord; and you will be called Sought After, the City No Longer Deserted.” (Isa 62:10-12)

"'Behold, I am going to send My messenger, and he will clear the way before Me. And the Lord, whom you seek, will suddenly come to His temple; and the messenger of the covenant, in whom you delight, behold, He is coming,' says the LORD of hosts. 'But who can endure the day of His coming? And who can stand when He appears? For He is like a refiner's fire and like fullers' soap. He will sit as a smelter and purifier of silver, and He will purify the sons of Levi and refine them like gold and silver, so that they may present to the LORD offerings in righteousness.'" (Mal 3:1-3)

Do You Want to Know Him?
If you want to know Jesus personally, you can. It all begins when you repent and believe in Jesus.  Do you know what God's Word, the Bible says?

“Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of God, and saying, ‘The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.’” (Mar 1:14b-15).  He preached that we must repent and believe.

Please see my explanation of this in my post called "Do You Want to Know Jesus?"

From Glory to Glory | A Transforming Worship Experience

This worship music video is rooted in Scripture and reflects a personal heart's cry during my prayer life—my hope is that it becomes a voice for your journey, too. The theme of being "Transformed From Glory to Glory" captures the essence of the Christian life: a progressive, lifelong journey of becoming more like Jesus Christ.

Scriptural Basis 2 Corinthians 3:18; 2 Corinthians 5:17; Romans 12:1-2; Romans 8:29; and Colossians 3:9-10.

From Glory to Glory (lyrics)

[Verse 1]
The old has passed, and shadows fade away 
My heart is open to a brand new day 
Once a captive, now I stand by grace 
To look upon the Savior, with unveiled face 
For where the Spirit dwells, there’s liberty 
The chains are broken, and my soul is free 

[Chorus]
Holy Spirit, transform me
From glory to glory
Ever more like Jesus
Into His image  

[Chorus]

Holy Spirit, transform me
From glory to glory
Ever more like Jesus
Into His image  

[Verse 2]
The Spirit gives the life that makes me whole
Forming Christ within my heart 
Not a fading splendor, but one that lasts 
A surpassing glory eclipsing the past 
Renewing my mind, my heart pure and new 
I’m being molded, Lord, to look like You 

[Bridge]
Unveiled before Your throne, I see the radiance grow
From the depths of who I am, let Your likeness show
Chosen by the Father, by Your grace, divine
Transform me, Lord, let Your beauty shine 
The glory that remains, the glory that’s real 
Seal it in my spirit, Your image reveal!  

[Chorus]
Holy Spirit, transform me
From glory to glory
Ever more like Jesus
Into His image  

[Short 5-second guitar solo]

[Chorus]

Holy Spirit, transform me
From glory to glory
Ever more like Jesus
Into His image  

[Outro]
Ever-increasing, ever-changing, more like You
From glory to glory, in everything I do
My life now hidden in Christ is changed
Transformed forever, in Your holy Name

Holy Fire: Keep Me Burning | Official Music Video

This worship music video for "Holy Fire", based on my own experience and prayer life, is a prayerful invitation to experience the purifying and tangible power of the Holy Spirit. Inspired by the profound theological perspective that the baptism with the Holy Spirit and fire is a literal, observable spiritual experience rather than a metaphor, this song weaves together ancient scriptural truths and the rich, evocative imagery of 17th-century hymnody. In this video, you will hear: Reflections on biblical passages such as Matthew 3:11, Luke 3:16, and Luke 12:49, which underscore the reality of this divine fire. Imagery of the "celestial flame," "refining silver," and the "pillar of light," themes long cherished in historical worship to describe the Spirit's transformative work. A heartfelt prayer for total surrender, asking that our minds be set on God's desires and our lamps be kept filled with oil until the break of day. May this song serve as a catalyst for your own encounter with the Consuming Fire, helping you to move past metaphors into a deeper, more complete union with the Risen One. Scriptural Basis Matthew 3:11; 25:1-13; Luke 3:16; 12:49; Acts 2:3; Romans 8:5-6; 12:1; Daniel 7:10; Hebrews 12:28; Isaiah 6, Ezekiel 1, Revelation 3:18; Revelation 4:5; Exodus 13:21-22; Isaiah 1:25; Malachi 3:2-3; Proverbs 25:4; Job 23:10; Deuteronomy 4:24; 1 Thessalonians 5:19.

Holy Fire: Keep Me Burning (Lyrics)

[Verse 1]
I kneel in awe before You alone, 
O Consuming Fire enthroned. 
With lifted hands, to You I cry 
For more of Your holy fire.  (Or For more holy fire in my life)

It's written down in Matthew and Luke 
I stand upon the Gospel of Truth 
Even as your prophet foretold 
So long ago in days of old

[Chorus]
I kneel in awe before You alone, 
O Consuming Fire enthroned. 
Set my mind on what You desire, 
Grant me more of Your Holy Fire. 
Fill my lamp with oil, I pray, 
Keep me burning until that Day.

[Verse 2]
Set my mind on what you desire
Grant me more of Your holy fire
Let it now consume my heart,
As You fulfill Your promised part.

You came to cast fire on the earth, 
And called me to a second birth.
Let holy fire purge my heart, 
The Spirit's flame You'll now impart.

[Chorus]
I kneel in awe before You alone, 
O Consuming Fire enthroned. 
Set my mind on what You desire, 
Grant me more of Your Holy Fire. 
Fill my lamp with oil, I pray, 
Keep me burning until that Day.

[Verse 3]
To you my body I'm giving 
As a holy sacrifice that's living.
Not to this world conformed, 
But now by you transformed.

Only total union with You,
May we be one and no longer two. 
Let the life of Christ flow through me 
Clear and clean as a mountain stream 

[Chorus]
I kneel in awe before You alone, 
O Consuming Fire enthroned. 
Set my mind on what You desire, 
Grant me more of Your Holy Fire. 
Fill my lamp with oil, I pray, 
Keep me burning until that Day.

[Bridge]
Though the world rejects your holy flame,
Let Your blazing fire in us remain.
Spirit of Grace, O holy flame,
Kindle a love that bears Your name.

[Outro]
Empty I come, oh make me new
Let holy fire burn through and through
Not a shadow but living light
Steadfast, burning through the night

High King of Heaven – Official Music Video | A Worship Anthem

Welcome to the official worship music video for "High King of Heaven." This song is a prayerful meditation on the sovereignty, majesty, and eternal nature of Jesus Christ. From His role as the Creator who holds all things together to His position at the right hand of the Majesty, we invite you to fix your eyes on the One who is the radiance of God’s glory. In this track, we celebrate the Christ—the Author and Finisher of our faith—who holds the keys of death and hell and remains the same yesterday, today, and forever. He is God over all, forever praised, Amen.
About the Project

Take Your Stand

Bring the joyful sounds of the islands into your worship time! I composed this unique track using the Mozart AI app, blending a vibrant Caribbean worship style with the profound truths of Scripture. The lyrics and visuals are deeply rooted in three powerful passages:

Isaiah 53: The 700 BC prophecy of the sufferings of Christ, the Messiah
1 Corinthians 15:1-8: The core message of the Gospel
Matthew 28:6-7: The triumphant declaration of Christ's resurrection ("He is risen!")

Every image in this video was carefully selected to vividly capture the true meaning of these verses while fully embracing a beautiful Caribbean motif. My prayer is that this joyful celebration of our Christian faith inspires, refreshes, and deeply blesses your spirit!

Watch music video on Youtube.


Take Your Stand

(Verse 1)
Brothers and sisters, look back to the start
Let me remind you what captured your heart
The truth that I spoke, the Word that you heard
The unshakable hope of the living Word
You welcomed it in, you gave it your all
Now stand in the grace that broke down the wall

(Chorus)
By this gospel you are saved
And the power of the grave defiled
Hold on firmly to the message I gave
Don’t let your faith be in vain, my child
Take your stand on the Rock that stays
Lift your hands to the Ancient of Days

(Verse 2)
For what I received, I passed on to you
The greatest of truths, forevermore true
Of first importance, the ultimate grace:
That Christ took our sins, and died in our place
The old holy pages foretold how He’d bleed
According to Scripture, the Savior agreed

(Chorus)
By this gospel you are saved
And the power of the grave defiled
Hold on firmly to the message I gave
Don’t let your faith be in vain, my child
Take your stand on the Rock that stays
Lift your hands to the Ancient of Days

(Bridge)
He was buried in the dark
Laid inside a cold stone tomb
But death could not hold the spark
Light shattered the midnight gloom!
On the third day He arose!
Just as the Scripture said
Conquered all of our foes
Firstborn from the dead!

(Guitar Solo / Instrumental Break)

(Chorus)
By this gospel you are saved
And the power of the grave defiled
Hold on firmly to the message I gave
Don’t let your faith be in vain, my child
Take your stand on the Rock that stays
Lift your hands to the Ancient of Days

(Outro)
On the third day He arose
According to the Word
Brothers and sisters, stand
Our Savior is the Lord
Don’t believe in vain
He is risen again
He is risen again
