You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
Delusion does not just confuse the mind; it corrupts the ability to make sense at all. When the heart turns from God, the conscience grows dull and darkness begins to look like light. The only safeguard against confusion is staying anchored to the Word of God. "The entrance of Your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple" (Psalm 119:130).
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...
Two years ago, on October 7, a terroristic and murderous act unleashed a wave of evil the world cannot afford to forget. Hamas’s barbaric assault on Israeli civilians wasn’t “resistance," it was terrorism, plain and simple. Israel’s response, though fierce, has been a just defense under the...
--journal, March 2010, from prison-- How can we ever possibly think this life is hard compared to what Jesus went through? Fully God and fully human. He felt everything we feel, yet lived without sin. Jesus left his home in heaven to live on earth. He experienced the eternal pleasures of His kingdom, yet he decided to take on the discomfort of our slums, for what? For God so loved the world (John 3:16). And all we have to do is believe in Him with all our heart, soul, mind and strength. He already did the hard stuff. Born human, but all God. Sinless, but among sinners; deserving of constant praise and adoration, but received insults and blaspheming tongues; could have ascended.....
I cannot be hesitant to lend my opinion to the current cultural discussion that is taking place via media sources. My faith calls me to do so—and I hope when I speak that I always speak with the love of Christ. I try to keep it real-- my “Volume Up” videos hold nothing back. My past blogs never stuttered when it came to presenting truth. So considering the recent Supreme Court ruling regarding the institution of marriage, I biblically, practically, and mathematically have a response. You see, the hashtag used to celebrate this monumental law change, #LoveWins, makes me ask the question: Does love really win? Ok, I get it. Man’s personal application of love seemingly won, but....
The weather has been pretty suspicious lately rapidly moving from random and sporadic thunderstorms to hail falling from the sky to tornadoes touching down. Sometimes the weather forecast seems to be inconsistent, yet most of the time, we are still able to discern what’s coming by way of satellites and maps. And that reminds me of the words of Jesus as He rebukes the religious folk for asking for a sign from heaven. He sharply says, “Hypocrites! You know how to discern the face of the sky, but you cannot discern the signs of the times” (Matthew 16:3). So how is it we can discern the face of the sky, but not discern....
The human body is a resilient instrument and can sustain a substantial amount of trauma. But, one of the most vulnerable organs is the heart--if it takes an intense hit-- the likelihood that the body will shut down is imminent. And that is what is known as a heart attack, where an inadequate supply of oxygen causes an area of the heart muscle to die, radiating and destroying other parts of the body. And while a physical heart attack can be fatal, quite the opposite occurs when the heart of God (His people) are attacked--it then proves to be resilient and full of mercy. God’s blood drips forgiveness as exhibited by the victims of those connected to the recent cold blood......
