Website Back Online

Hope you’re having an amazing day! 2023 was a challenging year in many ways for me, and for a period of time, my website was down and I was unable to keep you updated on the latest writing news, but most importantly, sharing a word of encouragement with you. Reading scripture this week, I came across Revelation 12:17, “Then the dragon was enraged at the woman and went off to wage war against her offspring – those who keep God’s commands and hold fast their testimony about Jesus.” NIV I realized this was nothing more than spiritual warfare right after my 2nd book was published. At a time when I should be sharing what God has done, I was disconnected from my blog posts. The Devils goal is to disrupt the testimony of believers, to silence the word of God and those that seek to encourage others in their faith journey. Realizing this, I geared up for the battle with the goal of sharing even more of God’s goodness with you. After a week of reconnecting my website and updates, I can finally say it is so good to be back with you. I am looking forward to all that God has planned for us in 2024. I also want to reach out to see if you have any prayer requests? My website is about more than books I’ve written. It’s about the call God has on my life life to reach you, the reader. It’s my ministry to be an encouragement to others, whether that be through books or praying for you. I’m here for you. Having a bad day, send me a prayer request either here or through the contact form on my website. I’ll reply once I’ve prayed for you. Have a blessed day! Greg Cope

Ephesians 4:29

The heart of a Momentum Leader is revealed in their communication and attitude toward others. Matthew 15:18, “But the things that come out of a person’s mouth come from the heart, and these defile them.” Some leaders are so corrosive in their speech it’s embarrassing to even be around them. They view some people as ‘toxic’ and not worthy of their time or attention and communicate to them as such. The exact opposite of the example Jesus set for us. Ephesians 4:29 sets the standard for a Momentum Leader, “Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.” Have a blessed day knowing God loves you more than you can imagine and worthy of His time to listen and respond to your cares.

Book 2 in Editing!

Received round one, first 20,000 words back from my editor this week and boy did he give me work to do. It is really amazing to see how he transforms the story, making changes and adapting to my style and voice. He challenges thoughts for clarification, advises of redundancy and appropriate word count by chapter to keep the reader engaged. Editing isn’t just handing it over to the editor and they create a polished manuscript. He sends it back and says “make it better.” ‘Momentum: A Faith Powered Journey’ to be published by year end.
