About Myself
My deepest desire all my life was to be a simple man that loved deeply and appreciated all my blessings. In that regard I view my life as an overwhelming success. I've held many occupations, but my living has always been my preaching. I'm blessed with a large family, a wonderful wife in Lyr Lobo, and a great dog, Poe. Lets' talk about Jesus sometime! Always ready to pray with you!
My Interests
My family, friends, neighbors, and my church family. I enjoy most anything to do with the Bible, and love to 'get lost' building in virtual worlds while listening to some good Christian music :)
Favorite Quote
"The most important one,” answered Jesus, “is this: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’There is no commandment greater than these." - Mark 12:29-31

There is a new movie upstairs in the Resource Centre, "The Life of Jesus" in High Definition, and great sound. I also updated the three movies in the Conference Center, left to right they are: The Book of Revelation, Final The Rapture, and The Two Witnesses Movie. hop://login.digiworldz.com:8002/Faith/56/139/24
Here’s a summary of the gospel to help you understand it and enjoy it and share it!
1) God created us for his glory.
“Bring my sons from afar and my daughters from the end of the earth, everyone who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory” (Isaiah 43:6–7). God made all of us in his own image so that we would image forth, or reflect, his character and moral beauty.
2) Therefore every human should live for God’s glory.
“Whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God” (1 Corinthians 10:31). The way to live for the glory of God is to love him (Matthew 22:37), trust him (Romans 4:20), be thankful to him (Psalm 50:23), obey him (Matthew 5:16), and treasure him above all things (Philippians 3:8; Matthew 10:37). When we do these things we image forth God’s glory.
3) Nevertheless, we have all sinned and fallen short of God’s glory.
“All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23). “Although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him . . . and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images” (Romans 1:21–23). None of us has loved or trusted or thanked or obeyed or treasured God as we ought.
4) Therefore we all deserve eternal punishment.
“The wages of sin is (eternal) death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Romans 6:23). Those who did not obey the Lord Jesus “will suffer the punishment of eternal destruction, away from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his might” (2 Thessalonians 1:9). “These will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life” (Matthew 25:46).
5) Yet, in his great mercy, God sent his only Son Jesus Christ into the world to provide for sinners the way of eternal life.
“God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life” (John 3:16). “Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us” (Galatians 3:13). “Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God” (1 Peter 3:18).
6) Therefore eternal life is a free gift to all who will trust in Christ as Lord and Savior and supreme Treasure of their lives.
“Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved” (Acts 16:31). “If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved” (Romans 10:9). “By grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast” (Ephesians 2:8–9). “I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me” (Galatians 2:20). “I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have suffered the loss of all things and count them as rubbish, in order that I may gain Christ” (Philippians 3:8).

I'd like to clear up some misconceptions I believe some may hold about my ministry in Opensim. I love to roleplay, but my ministry is ONLY about bringing the full and uncompromised Gospel of Jesus Christ to whoever wants and needs it. My statement of faith is posted in several places on my sims, just do an area search to find one. If you're concerned about the many horrible things happening in the world today, come join us on Sunday at 10am for worship - and please drop me a notecard if you need to talk, I'm here for you. I preach only the Word of God from the King James Bible, Salvation by Faith alone in Jesus Christ, offered freely to ALL.
*waves* Hi Everybody! Does anyone know where I can rent an audio stream in Opensim? I know I can log into SL to do that - but that kinda goes against the whole pioneer spirit here :P Thanks in advance :)

ChienoshimaI am very impressed with the work here. It's a beautiful sim, and there has been a lot of love poured into it. I don't think it's quite finished (are they ever? :P}. I think they set a new standard in RP sims, especially historical Asian recreations :)
HousesDon't you get tired of hunting all over looking for just the right structure, and when you do find it - it's not set to give away? You won't find that here, I consistantly find what I need and it's set for free. What a nice feeling :) Nice job :)
Lbsa PlazaI love OSGrid, for many reasons. I have so many good memories of good friends, many of them giants of men in opensim legend, Hiro Protagonist, who gave me friendship and encouragement, Key Gruin, Kidd, Marcus Llewellyn, Snoopy Pfeffer, Warin Cascobell, who brought steampunk to OSG, tx Oh, White Wolf, so many that were family pioneers , so many that selflessly gave to all of us these worlds we take...
