You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
At the end of Paul’s letter, we meet Erastus—not a preacher, but a city official. He wasn’t called to the pulpit but served with purpose in public life. God places His people in churches, classrooms, and city halls. Wherever you're planted, you're placed with purpose; and your everyday work can become sacred ground when it’s surrendered to Him. "Erastus stayed in Corinth…” (2 Timothy 4:20).
Our mistakes cannot make God love us less. In fact, our mistakes (when given to God) become passageways for His grace. "The LORD gives beauty for ashes" (Isaiah 61:3).
Newsflash: As a nation, we are on the road to revival or ruin, and where we land depends upon what the Christians are doing. Yes, we can rally and we can roar, but the greater need is to seek God more. You see, if we repent, God will...
As this world gets darker and darker, the Christian should be shining brighter and brighter. We shouldn't be looking at the darkness and pointing it out, but rather we should be pointing our lives toward the darkness and lighting it up! Wherever the...
Trust the Lord with your circumstances and rest knowing He controls the consequences. You see, peace can only arrest our heart when we rest in God's heart. "Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and he will establish your plans" (Proverbs 16:3).
Championing social justice without the Gospel is like pushing sobriety on an alcoholic without removing the bottle. Translation: if the solution doesn’t involve heart change, then no matter the energy or noise, the efficacy will...
God's peace for us is always in the present. So when we regret the past or stress the future, peace can no longer be our governor. "And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful" (Colossians 3:15).
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 everyday pressures I face, when compared to my former pressures, is the difference between a hurricane and a light rain. An umbrella adequately covers one; but there are limited safety precautions for the other. Prison pressure was a hurricane, making life’s current pressure nothing but a light rain. I was in an earthly form of hell for over 4 and 1/2 years, yet I emerged....
In honor of my mother’s newly released book “SLAMMED,” and it’s emphasis on faith in God in the midst of a storm, I would like to share an abbreviated version of the words spoken at my brother John’s funeral -- nine years ago-- on behalf of my mother by her friend. (It’s worth the longer read!)-------- An amazing thing happened three decades ago in Bayside Village. There in the spring of 1978, John and Cherri Olsen—that’s my husband and me and our baby son John moved into the barn-style house at 110 Oakdale Ave. directly across the street from the barn-style house at 109 Oakdale Ave, where John and Andrea Maher lived with their baby son, John. And I noticed right away that their house was......
I must say --with all humility-- that I do not care who follows me on social media. I obviously take these platforms seriously based on the content of my posts and pictures; and I hope whoever is following me feels as if I am leading them somewhere worthwhile. It is truly my intent to instigate integrity, inspire initiative, and infuse insight through these vehicles. And I get it, everyone wants as many followers as possible when it comes to these channels -- more followers equals more popularity…I guess. I am not trying to lose followers, and my desire is not to gain followers.....
Yesterday was exactly 5 years since my sentencing day. The day I was physically incarcerated, but spiritually liberated (I-VII-X). And much has happened in this time-span. Much has grown. Much has died. Much has multiplied. You see, I could not visualize where I’d be weeks, months, or years from that fateful day that I was sentenced away. I could only see the moments before me and the opportunities around me. Both presented decisions to be made--Maximize the situation or criticize my life’s condition? I think....
