You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
Some opportunities don’t come again. Just as Paul sensed winter approaching and called for urgency, when God prompts your heart, act quickly. Delayed obedience can be disobedience in disguise. Discern what season you're in right now and do what the Spirit is leading you to do. “Do your utmost to come before winter" (2 Timothy 4:21).
The Christian is to be conditioned by the truth of Scripture, not by the trends of culture. Again, we are to be so primed by the Shepherd that we are not prone to wander. "My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me" (John 10:27).
There is no sin, no shame, no past, and no pain when you know Jesus. You see, He not only died for our sin and shame, but He is the only one who can redeem our past and our pain. Do you know Him?
Sinners don't need good advice, they need the Good News of Jesus Christ. For ALL have sinned and are dead in it, which means ALL need a Savior in order to rise from it. "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord" (Romans 6:23).
Whatever we take in will be what we live on. In other words, whether it's the truth of the Word or the lies of the world, we will be fueled by what we are fed by. Thus, let us guard the gate of our heart from compromise and...
The enemy cannot steal our salvation, but he can spoil our sanctification. You see, though we are secure in God's hands, we must still be on guard against the devil's plans. "Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil" (Ephesians 6:11).
The work of God cannot happen through us unless it has first happened to us. You see, in order to show God's mercy, we must know God's mercy. "Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy" (Matthew 5:7).
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...
In two days I will be married. Or as our Instagram hashtag creatively expresses it, #letsgetMAHERied. There has been so much planning in such a short period of time (six weeks). From the day we set the date of November 8th, the favor from God has been overwhelming. (And thankfully we have our parents, siblings and other extended family members who have worked tirelessly for this day; ALL FORMS of FAVOR). One of the initial obstacles was finding a church large enough to hold our guest list. Thankfully a long time friend and Pastor......
Man, heck with “likes,” I’m trying to save lives! And NO, I'm not the Messiah. I'm just a wick that Jesus has set on fire! No disrespect to anyone who has ever “liked” my pics or points, but when do we make what we “like” online the very manifestation of what we are like outside: Outside the screen, whether it be our cell phone or our computer at home. I’m tired of being reduced to a “like” on my Facebook wall. If you don’t believe it.....
Deep thoughts from a deep heart--which only comes from deep scars. I still feel the crevice of pain every time I re-hash my story to the audiences that God has ordained for me to address. I know that I do not deserve the voice, far from it. But the students and youth deserve the message. And the community deserves this type of response, and all of this is in spite of me. I strongly desire.....
I’m angry! Yes, I really am! And guess what? It’s acceptable when your anger is a derivative of what angers God. And this was one of the many lessons Pastor Matt Stokes poured forth today to the community at Coastal Christian Ocean City (CCOC). It was a much-needed message that beats near, dear, and clear to the heart of God; especially as it is manifested in the life of Jesus. When do we......
