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 following was written to my parents three weeks after my accident on April 1, 2009. My mother recently found it in a pile of notes in her old Bible. Considering I just got done teaching “You Are What You Keep,” Part 2 of our series Unbreakable ReSOULutions at my church, I am in awe of what the Holy Spirit guided me to write--that many years ago. This is just a portion of the three-page letter: Dad and Mom: So where do I begin? My mind races every moment of the day and I still....
Have you ever heard the term “Swan Song?” It refers to the ancient belief that swans sing a beautiful song in the moment just before death, having been silent or not so musical during most of their lifetime. Stemmed from Greek mythology, I find there is some metaphorical truth to this. It is often in our darkest moments that we have a decision to make regarding....
Nobody can curse what God has blessed.I will testify that having a “Merry Christmas” has nothing to do with presents and everything to do with His presence. And guess what? From the beginning of time, God allows His promises to be born in strange places. “In a manger” (Luke 2:7). My Savior was born outside the world’s acceptance. “No room for them in the inn” (Luke 2:7). Having a "Merry Christmas" isn't about being liked by the crowd.......
Every time I look at my Bible I’m reminded of two things: prison and peace. How is that possible? First, it wasn’t that prison was my peace, but I was imprisoned by peace while in prison. And the peace of God that guarded me was greater than any guard or wall that confined me. And second, one day I was out of my area and a guy in my housing unit decided to surprise me with a gift. This gentleman had noticed how worn and torn my Bible cover was and found it fitting to make a new unique cover for it. The material?
