You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
Worry borrows tomorrow’s problems but spends today’s peace. The weight we imagine for the future often crushes our joy in the present. But God doesn’t ask us to carry tomorrow, He invites us to cast every care onto Him today. “Casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you” (1 Peter 5:7).
God made us on purpose for a purpose. "On purpose" because He doesn't make mistakes and "for a purpose" because He wants our lives to highlight His great grace. "For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them" (Ephesians 2:10).
The Gospel of Christ confronts us before it converts us. You see, if the flesh is not put to death, the spirit cannot walk in newness of life. "And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires" (Galatians 5:24).
A heart that is set upon the joy of heaven cannot be beset by the sorrow of earth. Oh sorrows will happen, but the joy of the Lord is our weapon. "Do not sorrow, for the joy of the Lord is your strength" (Nehemiah 8:10).
Stop trying to pray away the very trial God has sent your way. Instead, ask God to have His way within the trial by making you more like Him through the trial. "Count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing...
God's promises are much bigger than our problems. So instead of seeing the day through those problems, begin to see the day through His promises. He knows what you need and He has you where He needs...
The gospel of Jesus Christ is the shocking truth of how we have been lovingly accepted by a God whom we blatantly rejected. In other words, our reality is that we deserved death, yet Christ served us life. "Being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ” (Romans 5:1).
On Labor Day weekend, I’ll begin a new teaching series at Landmark Church titled “The Last Revelation: Countdown To The Kingdom.” For the past several months, I’ve been studying, praying, and seeking the Lord in preparation for what He desires to...
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......
It’s weird knowing that everyone I was extremely close to in prison is now out—and life goes on for all of us…. Except my friend Sean McGuirk. My BFAM! (Brother From Another Mother). Sean is still incarcerated and has about 22 months left to serve on his 8-year sentence. He has recently been......
How do you silence the critic without coming out of character? It’s easy. Take what they are conjecturing and use it as an opportunity for lecturing. My wedding is less than 3 weeks away, and according to the grapevine consensus -- Sarah and I are.....
