You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
The only way higher is to go lower—in humility. The only way straight is to lean into what is right—in God’s sight. There is no other way to truly live this life but to die to self and be found in Christ. God’s ways are often paradoxical: we lose to gain, surrender to overcome, and die to truly live. That’s why we can’t rely on what our eyes can see—but on what our faith can believe. “For we walk by faith, not by sight" (2 Corinthians 5:7).
Nothing can make you lose your hunger for the things of the world except for the taste of God's amazing grace. "Taste and see that the Lord is good" (Psalm 34:8) and your appetite for the world will diminish.
God not only meticulously counts your hairs and compassionately keeps your tears, but He also wildly pursues your heart. He is madly in love with you, and since He decided to sacrificially die for...
Sadly, not everybody that's with you is actually for you. Nonetheless, keep in mind, "if God is for you, who can be against you?" (Romans 8:31)
God removed our sins from us by bearing our sins for us. And b/c He bore our sins on the cross, we no longer have to bury our sins in our heart. "As far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us" (Psalm 103:12).
Before we speak to someone about their sin, we need to speak to God about them. Thus, let us be those who intercede in prayer before we interrupt in person. "If anyone sees his brother sinning a sin which...
For the believer, prayer is not optional, it is essential. If we are not praying, we are not growing. You see, we pray, not so we can direct God, but so that God can direct us. "Whether you turn to the right or to the...
Many are reacting to the recent exchange between Tucker Carlson and Ted Cruz, but the real issue isn’t politics, it’s perspective. More specifically, it’s a lack of biblical perspective. Despite their influence, both men reveal a limited grasp of Scripture. Tucker views everything through an America-first lens, opposing any foreign policy...
I was the most disciplined undisciplined person in the world. In academics, mom never had to remind me to study. Scholarly success was habitual. Homework done. Assignment complete. Test aced. Distinguished honors. I was disciplined to be the best student expected of me—though secretly complacent—I did enough to surpass my peers. In athletics, dad never had to remind me to train. Athletic success was innate. Gym time. Diet time. Game time. All-star honors. I was disciplined to be the best athlete required of me—though only self-satisfied—I did just enough to....
It’s hard to write these days….. probably because it’s easier to see right these days. I mean compared to all the wrong that I used to write about because it was easier to find at least one hard lesson a day, when I was working my thoughts out. Today there is less pressure pressing and less chaos confessing. You see, all the turmoil use to speak clearly to me, and I......
Things may not add up right now in your life, but do not lose heart. Sometimes the events of life aren’t exactly what we intended or prayed for, and it is in that misunderstanding that we lose hope and faith. Sometimes an event blind sides us to the point of paralysis, where mind, body and spirit are held captive by the pain and shock of what we just experienced. If that sounds like where you are at right now, consider Mary’s experience. Mary, the mother of Jesus Christ, must have lost....
(Excerpt from "Once Upon a Time in Paradise".....Coming Soon!) "Comparability" I wonder what the “match results” would be if you put, “I need a helper comparable to me,” as an answer to one of the questions on an online dating service website? Would it be able to match you with your suitor? Maybe actually, ha! So why can’t we trust God—the Ultimate Matchmaker—if we are willing to trust a computer for our suitor? I am not discrediting anyone who has used such services, because God will use any avenue to bring people together, but I want to make it clear that if you don’t invite Him into your “search,” how can you be sure that these exterior avenues will find you a helper comparable to you? It is God who said of Adam, “I will make him a helper comparable to him” (Genesis 2:18); thus, I don’t have to google search “a helper comparable to me” and....
