You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
Spiritual darkness doesn’t rush in, it creeps in when light fades. The greatest threat to truth isn’t open rebellion, but quiet compromise. And history proves: when the Church loses conviction, culture breeds deception. “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden" (Matthew 5:14).
When God forgives, God restores. He doesn't just separate us from our sin, but He also completes our lives in His Son. You see, the believer not only receives forgiveness, but they also receive God's righteousness. "Bless the Lord, O my soul, and...
We often pray for deliverance from trials, but we really need to pray for endurance while we go through them. You see, it's usually within the greatest pressures of life that we are afforded the opportunity to experience the greatest presence of God. "Blessed is...
It is true that trials, difficulties, and specifically brokenness are a means by which faith is exercised and increased. Such adversity is a way to know God more deeply. So when trials come and our innermost soul is tested, we shall say: “I will wait and see what good God will...
It’s easy to think you are true when the standard is you. Yet the truth is this, that all men are but false when the standard is the cross. You see, "all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God," and it is at the cross of Jesus Christ where the playing field is leveled and man is either...
The conversion and continuum of our faith in Jesus Christ is that we are delivered out of the house of bondage to one day dwell in the house of the Lord. And thus, while we are in-between one house and the next, let us be content as we walk through the valley of the shadow of death. "Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the house of the Lord, forever” (Psalm 23:6).
Self-righteousness damns. And only Christ’s righteousness redeems. In other words, so many believe they will be saved by their good works in life, but the Bible explains how we are only saved by God's work in Christ. This doesn't mean we shouldn't do good works, but it does...
Christian, use your brain. I’m not talking to the world; I’m talking to true believers. Discernment isn’t just a spiritual gift; it’s a spiritual discipline. It’s forged through...
Not too many days pass without receiving a message from someone through social media or through my website about a present adversity that they are navigating. Not only is it an honor that they trust me with their plights, but my way of honoring them back is by humbly offering them my personal pain insights. And for the record, you don't learn ministry through a textbook or...
(Book #1 of the Core Conviction Series--Imprisoned by Peace) Where have I been most of my young life thus far? I have been all over the country in my travels with soccer, from childhood as a novice player to adulthood as a professional athlete. I have been to so many great colleges and universities, visiting those campuses either for pleasure or sports-related activities. I have even lived in some beautiful cities in my day. But where have I been while...
Some may call it an epiphany, but I choose to call it a symphony, because these thoughts are music to my soul. I didn’t have to write this blog, I got to. I don't have to wake up and get in the Word, I get to. I don’t have to share my heart as I speak in schools, it’s a blessing to. I don’t have to prepare messages for church...
These thoughts were written in March of 2013 while I was incarcerated at Mid-State Correctional Facility. As I re-read them now all of this time later, I realize they are still appropriate. These thoughts are still the desire of my heart ("that Jesus may increase and I may decrease"): "I just want to be avoided or overlooked by my peers and especially by the...
