You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
Gratitude turns what we have into enough, because it shifts our focus from what’s missing to Who is present. A thankful heart sees God’s hand in both plenty and in pain, and finds peace in His provision. When we practice gratitude, lack loses its grip and contentment takes its place. “In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you” (1 Thessalonians 5:18).
What's the point of Scripture? Answer: To know the Savior. You see, information may come when you know the Bible. But true life transformation comes when you know the Author. "You search the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life; and these are they which testify of Me" (John 5:39).
There is no bread that sustains like the Bread of Life; nor is there any water that can quench like the living water of Christ. In Him, we are full. And Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst" (John 6:35).
The Good Shepherd will lead you where He needs you. Whether beside the "still waters" to still you or to the green pastures to fill you. "The Lord is my shepherd;I shall not want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters" (Psalm 23:1-2).
The cross doesn't give us a license to sin. The cross shows us the destruction of sin and the salvation offered by the Son. You see, to adore the Son is to abhor sin. "For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace" (Romans 6:14).
Our faith in God needs to be greater than our fear of man. You see, when we are intimate with the Lord, we will not be intimidated by any fear in this world. "For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind" (II Timothy 1:7).
Understanding the Word of God means nothing unless we are also standing under the God of the Word. You see, knowing should lead to showing and hearing should lead to doing. "But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves" (James 1:22).
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 just recently spoke in Concord, California at the prestigious Every 15 Minutes Program, held at Carondelet High School & De La Salle High School. This impressive program offers experiences that simulate real-life risks involved with drinking and driving, and texting while driving. The mood is somber and includes a mock funeral with caskets, pallbearers, and even a simulated crash scene, enacted the day before, which replays on the big screen. The room is filled with gloom. It is a stellar attempt to show the real life horrific consequences of drinking and driving. However, the show....
Anytime you decide to take a stand in LIFE, you’re going to have critics. Anytime you commit to leading the WAY, you’re going to have cynics. And anytime you unashamedly present the TRUTH, you’re going to have skeptics. What do these “ics” have in common? Well, most of the time, they don’t know the WAY that Jesus went, the TRUTH that Jesus spoke, or the LIFE that Jesus gave. They don’t know HIM; so don’t let their opinion slow you down from being all about HIM. Choose Jesus and you’ll want for nothing. Refuse Jesus and you’ll want everything, but....
Why do I speak out about my tragedy? Not to glamorize the recklessness, but to promote the perspective shift; To instigate integrity and demonstrate accountability. I close every assembly with this parable for the audience to consider: "There was a hiker lost in the wilderness, who happened upon another man, a pioneer, resting his back against a tree. The lost hiker, frantic and anxious, approached the pioneer to ask him if he could help him find his way out. The pioneer replied, "I cannot help you find your way out, that is ultimately up to you. But I can tell you of paths that you certainly should not take. I can tell you of ways that led me nowhere. I can tell you of mud bogs, snakes pits, and briar patches that you must steer clear from. But how to get out, well, that's up to you." The hiker was confused and......
Ever hear a hissing sound and thought nothing of it? I highly doubt it, because it is usually the hissing sound that tells us something is leaking – like a bike tire. Not too major of a problem, but neither is it minor, while still requiring the “hiss” to be plugged up and fixed. Thus, in the bike tire example, the hissing tells us that there’s a hole in the tube, making the slight leak hinder the entire bike’s use. And if you do not address the “hisssssing,” you very well could hurt yourself when using the bike. Further, sometimes the hissing can be even more catastrophic like a gas leak or a pipe fault. And anyone who....
