You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
Don’t miss the precision of Christ’s supervision: He knew exactly what His people in Smyrna would face, and He set the limit. And don’t miss the provision: He promised the crown of life on the other side of suffering. What He orders, He oversees; what He permits, He provides for. "Do not fear any of those things which you are about to suffer. Indeed, the devil is about to throw some of you into prison, that you may be tested, and you will have tribulation ten days. Be faithful until death, and I will give you the crown of life" (Revelation 2:10)
Without affliction, we often don’t change our direction. As David wrote, “Before I was afflicted I went astray, but now I obey Your word” (Psalm 119:67). In other words, God will allow an affliction to grace our lives in order to move us closer to His life.
On the cross, love won. On the cross, sin is gone. On the cross, redemption started. On the cross, death was thwarted. On the cross, He bore our shame. On the cross, He knew our name. On the cross, Oh what a Savior. On the cross, no grace is...
The very One the world wants dead is the only One who died for the world. You see, the mob today still yells "crucify Him" in the way they reject the One True God. And yet, though the world rejects the Lord, that doesn't stop how the Lord...
What happened between man's greatest evil against God (the crucifixion) and God's greatest good for man (the Resurrection)? Jesus took our sin and shame to the deepest grave, He conquered death and made a way for all the world to...
Jesus spoke words of grace from the cross of shame. He said, "Father forgive them" even as we hung Him. In other words, there is no failure of ours that will ever speak louder than the character of God. His forgiveness is greater than our sinfulness. Then Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do” (Luke 23:34).
Celebrating Holy Week is traditional, but celebrating the Holy One who descended upon that week is the Gospel. "No pain, no palm; no thorns, no throne; no gall, no glory; no cross, no crown" (William Penn). Enough said! "Then the multitudes who...
Charlie Kirk was assassinated. That alone should grieve us. But what followed has been equally disturbing: conspiracies blaming Israel, Mossad, or “the Jews.” Some call it discernment, but it’s delusion. This is a spiritual fog: a mix of historical ignorance, antisemitic tropes, YouTube rabbit holes, and...
The more we focus on the confusion and corruption of the world around us, the more such corrosion begins to live within us. So many people are looking for answers—“What’s the solution to the worlds injustice, violence, and ignorance?”—while missing the sad reality that all of what is occurring around the world is the direct result of a godless society. I said it before and I’ll say it again, bigotry of ANY...
I have not claimed to know what I am doing since day one of this unpredictable journey and I don’t plan on trying to figure things out now. Sarah and I have been in awe of God’s wonderful plan for our lives and we both know that when we desire His plan, we are settling for the absolute best plan. We just want to be obedient with what God has entrusted to us and with where He is leading us. I often pray subconsciously, “What next Lord?” Where next Lord?” And though I am excited for when He shows me....
Lately I have been rereading my mom’s book, SLAMMED: Overcoming Tragedy in the Wave of Grief, and the experience has led to grief-filled tears mingled with grateful memories. Traveling backward in time is impossible, except by thought alone. For people of faith, those periods of reflection can be a comfort as we see how our past events—the good and the bad—were all part of God’s purpose and plan. For my parents, that even meant the loss of a son. Something about that event struck me hard as I read.....
So much bad news in this world, yet so many still reject the Good News of Jesus. From the parlor tricks of politics to the mass murders sponsored by ISIS, when will this world see who Christ is? So many people say they’ll pray for those afflicted by tragedy, but that sympathy can be summed up by one recent interviewers theology. A news reporter asked him this question....
