You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
At the end of Paul’s life, we don’t see a spotlight on himself, we see a list of names highlighting others. Quiet servants. Hidden helpers. Ordinary people who stayed faithful. In a world that celebrates fame, God honors faithfulness. (See 2 Timothy 4:19-22)
We've all been weighed in the balance and have been found wanting. And that is why the scales of divine justice can only be balanced by Christ's righteousness. "TEKEL: You have been weighed in the balances, and found wanting" (Daniel 5:27).
In this world, error and lies will continue to overflow, but through the Lord, truth and light will always overcome. "And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it" (John 1:5).
The Hands that hung the world on its axis allowed the world's hands to hang Him on a cross. Let that sink in! Oh how great His sovereignty and humility. "He hangs the earth on nothing" (Job 26:7); "Then Pilate delivered Jesus to them to be crucified..." (John 19:16).
We can live to please God or we can live to appease man, but we cannot do both. And to live to please the Lord is to care less about being approved by the world. "For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to...
Our faith is not determined by the Bill of Rights but by what the Bible says is right. In other words, in Christ alone, we are free to speak truth and we are truthfully free regardless of any push back or hostility. "Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed" (John 8:36).
All hell breaks loose when pulpits fail to preach truth. Conversely, heaven arrives when Christians choose courage over compromise. "Where there is no revelation, the people cast off restraint; But happy is he who keeps the law" (Proverbs 29:18).
Christian, use your brain. I’m not talking to the world; I’m talking to true believers. Discernment isn’t just a spiritual gift; it’s a spiritual discipline. It’s forged through...
The problem with our country is NOT that evil or darkness has entered every facet of our every day culture. No! I believe the evil and darkness are a direct result of goodness and light failing to stand up and stand out within our culture. You see, evil can only triumph when good men choose to do nothing. And darkness can only prevail when light is not present. The Bible declares, “the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it” (John 1:4). The LIGHT SHINES (present). The DARKNESS DID NOT (past). The victory has already been won; yet, it appears we are living in defeat. Nonsense! The darkness did not comprehend.....
Ever heard the saying, “I’m not perfect.” I hope so, because if you’re human than you probably used it. But that’s not the excuse I’m offering today. Not when you know the root of such a saying can be an excuse for the absence of accountability. Please allow me to explain. When I was in prison, we ran a Bible study on my tier. This fellowship time was not only the pulse of the housing unit, but it was also the bulls- eye of those who didn’t attend. Many would sit on the outskirts listening, curious about the mechanisms of a Bible study. Some would sit secluded in their areas ignoring the content being shared, but still aware of.....
--journal, March 2010, from prison-- How can we ever possibly think this life is hard compared to what Jesus went through? Fully God and fully human. He felt everything we feel, yet lived without sin. Jesus left his home in heaven to live on earth. He experienced the eternal pleasures of His kingdom, yet he decided to take on the discomfort of our slums, for what? For God so loved the world (John 3:16). And all we have to do is believe in Him with all our heart, soul, mind and strength. He already did the hard stuff. Born human, but all God. Sinless, but among sinners; deserving of constant praise and adoration, but received insults and blaspheming tongues; could have ascended.....
I cannot be hesitant to lend my opinion to the current cultural discussion that is taking place via media sources. My faith calls me to do so—and I hope when I speak that I always speak with the love of Christ. I try to keep it real-- my “Volume Up” videos hold nothing back. My past blogs never stuttered when it came to presenting truth. So considering the recent Supreme Court ruling regarding the institution of marriage, I biblically, practically, and mathematically have a response. You see, the hashtag used to celebrate this monumental law change, #LoveWins, makes me ask the question: Does love really win? Ok, I get it. Man’s personal application of love seemingly won, but....
