You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
The Gospel doesn’t just make bad people behave. It makes dead people live. This isn’t a self-help message, it’s a resurrection miracle. Christ didn’t come to improve us; He came to indwell us. “Even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ…” (Ephesians 2:5).
What type of activities in your life need to decrease so that intimacy with Christ can increase? What "focuses" need to shrink so that God's presence can expand? Consider how an intentional decrease can lead to an exponential increase. More of Him and less of me. "He must increase, but I must decrease" (John 3:30).
A few friends who understand your tears are much more valuable than a lot of friends who only know your laughs. "A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for a time of adversity" (Proverbs 17:17).
We can own our guilt because the Lord has atoned for our guilt. We can disown our regret because it is impossible to change past events. And thus, after we have owned our guilt and disowned our regret, we can hone in on grace because our...
Building your house on the Rock doesn't exempt you from the storms of life, it only prepares you for them. God has a plan with even our difficulties; and He doesn't need us to understand them, He just wants us to lean on Him to withstand them. Thus, building...
Joy may be seen with a smile—but deep and abiding joy is clearly seen through a trial. You see, joy becomes the composure of the soul when we surrender to the truth that God is always in control. "May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you...
Great souls are ones that experience great sorrows. We may not like the feel of a sorrow, but when placed into the hands of God, we can begin to heal and become stronger for tomorrow. Thus, in God's economy, no pain is wasted, and everything is...
Comparative Analysis: Christianity vs. Islam Revelation and Textual Integrity: The Bible vs. The Quran • Muhammad claimed to have received revelations from the angel Gabriel for about 23 years, starting in 609 AD. The result was a sea of contradictions...
The truth behind a healthy and godly relationship has nothing to do with mastering love—that’s impossible—and everything to do with funneling the Master’s love—for with God all things are possible. You see, without Jesus at the center of the marriages soul, there can never be what the world calls “#RelationshipGoals.” It’s not a man and woman working...
I awake in a dark prison, yet I am free—a light apart from darkness. But the darkness exists, and I have learned that it is better to wake up in dark circumstances with God’s presence than to wake up alone in presumed light. Even in times of trials amid darkness, when one is with God, the lessons gained and the understanding attained are deeper than that which is learned in the pretentious light. “I have learnt to love the darkness of sorrow; there you see the brightness of His face.”1 How can one “love the darkness of sorrow”? I asked myself this same question; then I realized the importance of the word “learned” in the beginning of the quote. We may “learn” to always have a View Apart, even when....
I’ve cried tears of shame publicly for what I’ve done and tears of regret privately for what cannot be undone. I’ve cried tears of grief publicly when my brother died and tears of joy privately for where he now resides. I’ve cried many tears of pain as a baby, as a teen, and as a young adult; but now as a purpose driven and Christ centered man, I cry a different kind of tear....
Well, I’m still feeling a bit under the weather, which is in polar contrast to the recent beautiful weather. I so desire to be in the sun and feel its tanning kiss on my skin. Yet the current “cold” in my system has me avoiding the outside heat. Nonetheless and here is the lesson said best: whether you’re feeling under the weather, whether you’re experiencing good weather, or whether you’re going through rough circumstantial weather—whatever the weather—when you are...
