About
Are You Adding or Multiplying at Christmas? is the book I said I would never write. After all, I am a pastor, not a writer. My heart is to pastor people, not to sit at a computer alone for days, writing to people I may never meet.
This book and its website are a labor of love, pain, and great passion about something God has called me to do, one of the highlights in my over forty years of full-time pastoral ministry.
Whether you have stumbled upon this website by accident or not, I invite you along on a journey that began long before I became a pastor. In fact, it began when I was only five years old. It is my story seen from the perspective of Christmas. But it is not just my story, it also belongs to thousands of others who have called Oasis Church their home and the many thousands who have experienced Christmas at the Oasis (CATO) over the last twenty-five years. I hope it may nudge you and your church to fulfill the Great Commission by impacting your community in 25 days during Christmastime.
