I'm Brian and my family and I live in Colorado Springs, Colorado.  I am a Christian (born again/repentant).  In addition to living in Colorado I have also lived in Oregon, California, Nevada and Florida.  Here's some pictures of my young daughter when she was a baby:  Pictures of Abby.

My past experiences with churches include the Calvary Chapel and Vineyard movements, Assemblies of God, independent Charismatic venues as well as many other forums which give me an understanding of the systemic deception comprising the world of "Charismania" (a world comprising millions of people).  The deceit practiced by Pentecostal / Charismatic and (closely aligned) New Evangelical preachers and believers must be exposed if people are to be set free from this psuedo-Christian belief system (see Jude 3; New Testament).  So I join my voice with others in raising an outcry against this apostasy of our day.

If your faith is in man and in the institutions of this world you may have a difficult time reading through this website.  If your faith is securely planted in the Lord Jesus Christ you have nothing to fear.

You may notice from some of my articles that the Lord has placed me in a lot of very interesting situations throughout my life.  None of what I've experienced is an accident.

I do not maintain a mailing list to send out mass e-mails.  Be sure to browse my Updates section for unique and valuable information on important subjects.

I do not give recommendations on attending any "churches" that are structured as corporations (those listed as 501c3 government entities).  I am in Christian unity with all believers worldwide who worship God according to His Word in spirit and in truth.  [We are members of the Body of Christ: a Church without walls.]

A short biblical explanation on why this website will always be free to the public (and one of the primary reasons the carnal ministries of our era will not associate with me in any way):
No Donations Needed

When time permits I will add more articles to this site.  If there is anything I can do for you please send me an e-mail using the contact info provided below.  I accept prayer requests.  But due to time constraints I cannot accept invitations to join and participate in social media activities.

On September 11, 2001, while traveling alone I arrived in the land of Egypt where, because of terror attacks, I was exiled for just over one week (which coincided with the length of my vacation, but if I had wanted to leave Egypt before the end of my scheduled trip it would not have been possible due to international airport shutdowns):

For more family videos search for my name on YouTube.  I have two YouTube channels: one devoted to family videos and another for social/political topics (currently with only three videos).  If you cannot reach me by email or do not receive a return email from me (if I am unable to log in to my account, for example) you can post a comment on one of my YouTube videos as an alternate form of communication.
