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)
God's faithful plan runs through the falls and flaws of man. In other words, nothing we do (or don't do) can thwart what God is doing. However, let us commit to doing God's will so as to be a part of what He is doing. "Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven" (Matthew 6:10).
The Gospel is not what you can do for Jesus, but what Jesus has done for you. And since He became a dying sacrifice for us, let us become living sacrifices for Him. "I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you...
The nearest and dearest encounters with Jesus are often in the furnace. Why? Because trials often strip us of our worldly comfort and get us to long for God's comfort. Fiery trials refine our faith and renew our focus. “Beloved, do not...
Faith is trusting in the Lord regardless of the feelings within us, the forces around us, and even the fate before us. Faith in Christ infuses us with His strength which enables us to go the length of any trial. "I can...
Immovable faith comes from trusting in God's ability while submitting to His sovereignty. It's knowing God can deliver and He will deliver, but even if He doesn't, we will still trust Him. Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego answered and...
Our hope will not be found on Capitol Hill but Calvary's Hill. Remember, our hope is built on nothing less than Jesus' blood and righteousness. "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His...
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...
Not too many days pass without receiving a message from someone through social media or through my website about a present adversity that they are navigating. Not only is it an honor that they trust me with their plights, but my way of honoring them back is by humbly offering them my personal pain insights. And for the record, you don't learn ministry through a textbook or...
(Book #1 of the Core Conviction Series--Imprisoned by Peace) Where have I been most of my young life thus far? I have been all over the country in my travels with soccer, from childhood as a novice player to adulthood as a professional athlete. I have been to so many great colleges and universities, visiting those campuses either for pleasure or sports-related activities. I have even lived in some beautiful cities in my day. But where have I been while...
Some may call it an epiphany, but I choose to call it a symphony, because these thoughts are music to my soul. I didn’t have to write this blog, I got to. I don't have to wake up and get in the Word, I get to. I don’t have to share my heart as I speak in schools, it’s a blessing to. I don’t have to prepare messages for church...
These thoughts were written in March of 2013 while I was incarcerated at Mid-State Correctional Facility. As I re-read them now all of this time later, I realize they are still appropriate. These thoughts are still the desire of my heart ("that Jesus may increase and I may decrease"): "I just want to be avoided or overlooked by my peers and especially by the...
