You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
We often ask, "Why would God allow this?" Scripture doesn't answer every question, but it continually points us to the character of God. The God who ordained the cross, the greatest evil ever committed, to accomplish the greatest good can also be trusted with the unanswered questions in our lives. His sovereignty is never separated from His goodness. "And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose" (Romans 8:28).
In these deceiving days, be careful of what you believe in and be mindful of the people you lean on. Be cautious of the voices you heed and be on guard with the sources you read. You see, nobody sets out to get lost nor do many ever consider the...
The measure of greatness is not position, power, or prestige; it's service. Serving those who can do nothing for you. And since Christ came to serve those who did not deserve it, it's an honor to pursue greatness in the form of service. This is...
Silence has a real place in developing spiritual integrity. You see, the fool speaks just to say something, but the wise man speaks because he has something to say. When's the last time you listened to yourself think before you listened...
Love never leaves a heart in the same condition it found it. Love always does what's right, and when wronged, doesn't count it. Love never fails, even through failure. And love is only love when it is discovered in the Savior. "Love suffers long and...
You can have anxiety or you can have peace, but you can't have both. One pushes God out, while the other welcomes God in. And when you allow God in, He guards you from the inside out--now that's peace! “Be anxious for nothing, but in...
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...
What we are witnessing in these protests and walkouts is not random unrest, but the fruit of decades of moral decay left untreated. When a nation rejects God’s order long enough, disorder does not merely grow, it metastasizes. Not because rightly ordered authority causes rebellion, but because rebellion...
I’m talking to the complacent Christian: The pew warmer. The Bible studier, but not doer. Listening not applying. I’m calling out the Christian that “knows” they’re going to heaven from earth, yet have no idea what it’s like to have heaven on earth. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: complacency is no place to be. I know, because I’ve been there. I’ve been an idle Christian, which is no different than worshiping an idol disguised by religion. Complacent Christian, who would want the salvation and joy you say you have when there’s no proof that you have what you say you have? Who cares you go to church and an occasional Bible study? Both activities don’t make you Christ --when you leave both....
I’ll be completely honest as I share my initial thoughts during the recent leadership conference I attended. As Craig Groeschel and Andy Stanley were up on stage talking about their paths of getting to where God has them currently, I could not help but think about my path, which—not for lack of a better word, but for the only word that fits—has me categorized as an anomaly. The definition of anomaly: A deviation from the common rule....
There are so many times in this post-prison journey where I am in utter awe of God and how He works out His perfectly designed plan for our lives—often in spite of us. So for more than a year now, I find myself in numerous settings thinking ‘Only God!’ Today is another one of those days, as I am writing this from the beautiful town of Lancaster, Pennsylvania (and writing hastily I might add)! You see, we are between sessions of a conference called Catalyst: Practical Leadership Up close. And our executive leadership staff is here. And once again I have one of those moments as.....
Here I sit on my comfortable couch with a 55-inch flat screen tv in front of me and my state of the art MacBook on top of me. I just controlled the lighting to my liking and before I go any further—please excuse me—I’m going to grab a quick drink and snack from the fridge…Okay, I’m back now, still comfortable, but at a loss for words to type. And I’m humbly reminded how this is the complete opposite of how I used to write while in prison. Yet I never had an ounce of trouble writing a full page of deep thoughts graciously surrounded by peace in the midst of so much chaos and so little comfort. Back then, I typed on an antiquated....
