You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
Light doesn’t argue with darkness, it simply shines into it. And darkness has no defense against even the smallest flame. In the same way, you don’t have to out-shout the culture or win every argument, you just have to out-shine it with Christ in you. "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden" (Matthew 5:14).
You cannot behold what God has for you today if your hands are still holding onto what happened to you yesterday. Let go of it and let God be God over it. Trust me, He can handle it! "Brethren, I do not count myself to have...
A preoccupation with worldly things will always lead to a hopeless end. But a preoccupation with Christ the King will always lead to endless hope. "Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us" (Romans 5:5).
The only way to keep the cares of life from weighing us down is to cast them up to a God who lifts us up. You see, because God cares, we can trust Him with our cares. "Cast your burden on the Lord, and He shall sustain you; He shall never permit the righteous to be moved" (Psalm 55:22).
Contentment isn't about what you have or don't have but recognizing God has you. And to have a God who has you is to know He has your needs covered too. "And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus" (Philippians 4:19).
Our souls will always be restless in life until they come to rest in Christ. "Return to your rest, my soul, for the Lord has been good to you" (Psalm 116:7).
Ignorance of God's goodness is the cause of all bitterness. Because when we truly grasp God's grace, the root of bitterness will have no grip on our lives. "See to it that no one fails to obtain the grace of God; that no root of...
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...
[Written from prison in 2012, but recently speaking about the upside-down-ness of the world got me thinking about this past blog and how it is only the love of God that can turn an upside down world right-side-up.] The Upside Down Kingdom of prison--where the hierarchy is an anarchy. It’s supposed to be under the law, but its decree is outlaw. Without law. The violent don’t even have to take it by force, it’s given by course. What was done outside the gates is what grants you access to the throne. Preceding acts of murder make one royalty and the lives taken are referred to as bodies. Crowns. The most ruthless citizens come into this Upside Down Kingdom by way of carnage and destruction; and by their...
I was a prisoner most of my young life. Confined to other's approval. In bondage to performance and accomplishment. And when I did not get the approval or perform according to accomplishment, the chains of 'doing' squeezed out the liberty of 'being.' And whether you do or don't, you're imprisoned by the....
I guess you can call me a mistake, or an accident, or at best a giant surprise-- because my parents didn’t plan on having me. And you might even call me slow or challenged because that’s what the doctor predicted I would probably be. Whatever you call it— I’m here! So herein lies the story: One hot summer day
[Sneak Peek of "When God Had My Back" (Coming Soon)] I was new to the prison yard, being in the building for only few months at this point, but I was no stranger to playing basketball with the brothers. I’m an athlete by nature and though it had been several years since I last won a high school basketball State Championship, I jumped right back into the...
