The Abundant Life Blog
with John Guerrero
Welcome!
My name is John Guerrero. I’m a Christian husband, father, teacher, counselor-in-training, and writer. I live and work in a small town in Texas, where I’ve committed my life to making a difference, serving Jesus, blessing others, and impacting my little community. I write this blog to educate, equip, encourage, and enrich followers of God as they learn to live more like Jesus and navigate a faith-centered life.

Fly fishing involves a technique that needs to be finely tunedContinue reading “Viewing Enjoyment as Worship” - The Church, Disciples, Christianity: Sunday Scripture Thoughts
