You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
The Gospel doesn’t just make bad people behave. It makes dead people live. This isn’t a self-help message, it’s a resurrection miracle. Christ didn’t come to improve us; He came to indwell us. “Even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ…” (Ephesians 2:5).
There is nothing too dirty that God cannot wash with His mercy. And not only does His grace sanitize the shame in the soul, but His love stabilizes the hurt in the heart. "He saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of His mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit" (Titus 3:5).
To behold the love of God is to be held by the love of God. Because when we lift up our eyes, we allow Him to lift the burdens from our lives. "I will lift up my eyes to the hills—From whence comes my help? My help comes from the Lord, Who made heaven and earth" (Psalm 121:1-2).
Worldly love says "do what feels good." But godly love says "do good regardless of how it feels." And to be clear, "doing good" is more than just benevolence, it is also living by holiness. "He has shown you, O man, what is...
Instead of holding our sin against us, the Father holds His Son out to us. It makes no sense considering we deserve to remain lost, yet God still chooses to find us with His love. "Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God!" (1 John 3:1)
Living for the approval of man will not only trip you up, but it will trap you in. You see, we cannot walk securely if we are always fearing man because of our own insecurities. The answer: Look to God for your purpose and...
True faith is not needing to trace God's hand because you have learned to trust God's heart. And no matter the trial that is in front of you, true faith knows that God is always working good for you. "And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose" (Romans 8:28).
Comparative Analysis: Christianity vs. Islam Revelation and Textual Integrity: The Bible vs. The Quran • Muhammad claimed to have received revelations from the angel Gabriel for about 23 years, starting in 609 AD. The result was a sea of contradictions...
We’ve been married for exactly one month thus far, and I have to admit that I have learned so much from this “marriage seminar.” Here are a few “key” points that have helped me unlock my role as a husband. First of all, the spouse is not to be treated like a house. It is not your job to renovate or mold her, but rather learn to relate to her as you unfold her. You see, if I determine myself.....
A deposition on my own disposition. I'm usually one to bring a smile even if told to carry your weight and my weight for double a mile. Isn't that what Jesus instructed us to do? Yet lately I've been told that I'm "too serious" upon first view. And upon introspection and much reflection, I concur. I think I am more serious these days because......
You never really know what you got til it’s gone, or until it goes dormant! Either way, that statement is true in regards to so many areas of life--if not all areas of life-- especially talent. And participating in the Middle Township High School Soccer Alumni game this past weekend has me thinking about where I used to be in terms of my past profession. You see, when I was playing pro soccer for those seasons, I never really stopped to appreciate the ability that God had given me to be at that level. Instead of playing to give Him glory, I played to give myself glory. And pride always lifts you up for a fall......
My first Thanksgiving home and I am extremely grateful for where I am living. However, this Thanksgiving in particular--back in freedom--has me giving thanks for my past prison living. You see, for the past 4 years, my Thanksgiving was stripped of family, friends, and festivities. It was reduced to a mess-hall style meal, with canned cranberry as the most tasteful portion of the meal. Rubber turkey, watery mashed potatoes, and of course rice--even though it was supposed to be stuffing-- was served with every meal. For example, rice pudding was the dessert and the soup, just add water. In prison, you have to learn to love rice. Because hate it or love it, they are serving it. Anyway, as the traditional layers of Thanksgiving were completely peeled away.....
