You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
Trials aren’t setbacks, they’re setups for growth. God allows testing to stretch your faith and develop spiritual endurance. And having joy in hardship isn’t denial, it’s trust in God’s refining process; because the goal isn’t survival but maturity. “But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing” (James 1:4).
The cross of Christ is the gavel that incriminates. All are guilty there. And yet, it is also the grace that exonerates. Anyone can be forgiven there. "But God forbid that I should boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world" (Galatians 6:14).
"God is too good to be unkind and He is too wise to be mistaken. And when we cannot trace His hand, we must trust His heart." (Charles Spurgeon)
Calling sin an opinion doesn't stop sin from being poison. And that is why softening what the Bible says so as not to offend, isn't loving, it's lying. "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord" (Romans 6:23).
Hell has many ways. Heaven but one. Thus, know Christ, no death. Or, no Christ, know death. Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me" (John 14:6).
Those who are obedient to truth are never compliant to lies. You see, real eyes realize real lies; and as a result, disciples of Christ do not blindly comply. "However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth..." (John 16:13).
Now to Him who is able to preserve you on earth from falling and present you in heaven without fault. "To God our Savior, who alone is wise, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and forever. Amen" (Jude 25).
Many are reacting to the recent exchange between Tucker Carlson and Ted Cruz, but the real issue isn’t politics, it’s perspective. More specifically, it’s a lack of biblical perspective. Despite their influence, both men reveal a limited grasp of Scripture. Tucker views everything through an America-first lens, opposing any foreign policy...
Our performance doesn’t enhance or reduce God’s faithfulness. And with that opening sentence, it is my utmost privilege to report that God is still in the salvaging business despite our idea behind our own personal usefulness. Sarah and I recently participated in a youth event in Pennsylvania where I was the keynote speaker of the night. I’ve done this particular “presentation” before, which requires PowerPoint slides and embedded video; for it is the most structured way to tell my story without getting caught up in certain areas and timelines. Time is always ticking....
I am currently in Paramus, NJ, where this hotel will be Sarah and mines home away from home for the next 3 days. I am up here for several assemblies at area schools, funded by State Farm, and in conjunction with the Be Still Foundation. Now that school is back in session, my speaking engagement schedule is in full throttle. I will actually be doing about 26 engagements before the New Year, not counting ministry-speaking platforms. Again, I make mention of this busyness because....
I always try to write out of a storehouse of my own experiences and feelings. I mean, when I present hope as being the anchor of the soul through a struggle, I'm not just throwing out a platitude. I’m doing so from having lived through the paralyzing feel of struggle. Many struggles. However I have learned that hope is a handle, that allows for you to open up....
I was at an event this past weekend when I ran into a close friend of my parents. He immediately came up to me and gave me a warm hug. After the initial greeting, he said, "God is so amazing, isn't He? Could you have ever imagined being where you are today from where you once were--in the midst of tragedy?" To be honest, I couldn’t imagine....
