You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
When we chase the wind, we end up empty. When we chase the Word, we end up full. The world offers noise; Christ offers nourishment. “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God” (Matthew 4:4).
While Jesus is preparing a place for us in heaven, He is preparing us for that place here on earth. You see, trials are for us in order to form us into the image of Jesus. "For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us" (Romans 8:18).
To give the devil a toe-hold can quickly lead to a soul-hold. Yes, even a subtle compromise can begin a landslide to your own demise. Thus, we must guard our heart with all diligence so the Lord's way is our only consequence. "Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it spring the issues of life" (Proverbs 4:23).
All that is happening is happening not so that we hold on to life but so that we hold on to Christ. You see, crisis is an opportunity to know who Christ is. "That I may know Him and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death" (Philippians 3:10).
Jesus sat with sinners. He didn't sin with them. You see, He entered into our world so we could enter into His world. Likewise for us, when we empathize with people, we are making a way to evangelize the Gospel. "When Jesus heard it...
We're called to be a city on a hill, not a community in a cave. Hiding in a Christian bubble not only doesn't avoid times of trouble but it stunts the Gospel.
Are you willing to be known as a follower of Jesus Christ or just a believer in God? One way is narrow. The other is broad. “Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it" (Matthew 7:13-14).
On Labor Day weekend, I’ll begin a new teaching series at Landmark Church titled “The Last Revelation: Countdown To The Kingdom.” For the past several months, I’ve been studying, praying, and seeking the Lord in preparation for what He desires to...
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....
I’m squeezing these thoughts out as quickly and shapely as possible, because my window to write today suddenly shrunk. You see, I just realized today is Wednesday, and Sarah and I have to make our weekly trip to our marriage mentors house. Yep! I like the way that came out—“our marriage mentors.” We are so grateful for Scott and Amy Reef, who have been....
