You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
Worry borrows tomorrow’s problems but spends today’s peace. The weight we imagine for the future often crushes our joy in the present. But God doesn’t ask us to carry tomorrow, He invites us to cast every care onto Him today. “Casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you” (1 Peter 5:7).
Christ does not ask us to clean our lives up, He invites us to lay our lives down. Huge difference. One way is based on our work, while the other way is based on His work. "For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for Me and for the Gospel will save it" (Mark 8:35).
The gospel proclaims the truth that death didn't take Jesus but Jesus took death. And in Him alone, because death died, we are forever alive. Rejoice. "Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he...
The world says, "Speak your truth." But there's no such thing as "my truth or your truth," there is just God's truth. Therefore, let us singularly seek and passionately speak God's truth, for there is no other power that...
The Church is heaven's witness on earth. And even if hell is closing in on all sides, heaven still arrives when the people of God choose courage over compromise. "I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it" (Jesus Christ).
The Church is never called to popularity. The Church is called to integrity: to preach Christ crucified and repentance regardless of feelings and relevance. "But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own...
Trust the Lord with your circumstances and then rest knowing He controls the consequences. In other words, obey God and leave the outcome to Him. "Blessed are all who fear the Lord, who walk in obedience to Him" (Psalm 128:1).
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...
With yet another senseless tragedy, I know it is easy to become fatigued by sympathy. I mean, you cannot turn on the news these days without bad news dominating our eyes and ultimately creating anger, angst, or apathy within our hearts. Yet for the individual who calls them-self a "Christian," we must remember how Jesus said "in this world...
Being out of prison for this long, you'd probably think that I wouldn't still be in contact with so many jail-birds. No, not my former peers! I’m referring to my new friends at the seashore--seagulls. You see, seagulls were a common sight in the big yard and by watching them, I found some interesting parallels...
It is quite easy to be discontent with the place where God has placed you. Actually, it is because we lose sight of God's grace that we fight the place where God has chosen to plant us. But when we recognize that we are right where we need to be--which means we are surrendered to God's will--we become trees of righteousness, planted by the Lord for His glory through...
[Admin Note: This is a journal entry from Matthew's time in prison, recorded on October 16th, 2010] I failed terribly today, and I have to admit, it was well worth it. I tend to suffer most in the recovery following these moments of failure, but trust that the more I suffer, the more I will eventually have to offer others. Please allow me to explain: I allowed a trivial incident to steal my peace today and I learned a valuable lesson in the process: I can only be
