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).
God's faithfulness is covenantal, not contractual. In other words, let us be thankful that He is faithful in and of Himself, and that His faithfulness is not dependent upon us. "If we are faithless, He remains faithful; He cannot deny Himself" (2 Timothy 2:13).
Whatever is under God's control is never out of control. Thus, we'd do well to align our will with God's will! "Teach me to do Your will, for You are my God; Your Spirit is good. Lead me in the land of uprightness" (Psalm 143:10).
It's not just about not going to hell, but the ONE who saved you from hell. And it's not just about going to heaven, but the ONE who makes it heaven. It's about wanting more of Jesus now and having all of Jesus forever. "Whom have I in heaven but you? And there is nothing on earth that I desire besides you. My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever" (Psalm 73:25-26).
Discernment is when our "eye sight" lines up with our insight. And such clarity comes only through the Word. To know the Word is to have the right eyes to see the world. "Open my eyes, that I may see Wondrous things from Your law" (Psalm 119:18).
When truth dies, lies thrive. And when lies thrive, people die. But faint not, because truth will eventually rise and reign in the righteous rule of Jesus Christ. So let us keep standing on His truth regardless of how far society strays from His truth. "So you shall say to them, ‘This is a nation that does not obey the voice of the Lord their God nor receive correction. Truth has perished and has been cut off from their mouth" (Jeremiah 7:28).
A civilization that kills its own will eventually kill itself. "O Lord, hear! O Lord, forgive! O Lord, listen and act! Do not delay for Your own sake, my God, for Your city and Your people are called by Your name" (Daniel 9:19).
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...
