You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
When you are falsely accused or surrounded by opposition, the Word reminds us that God invites His people to bring their case to Him rather than retaliate in the flesh. It may feel right to defend our reputation, but we don’t have to when God Himself is our Advocate. “Plead my cause, O LORD, with those who strive with me; fight against those who fight against me” (Psalm 35:1).
An ounce of hope in the Lord weighs more than a ton of hype in the world. You see, hope always runs deep while hype always runs out. Therefore, it is only hope in Christ that will last even beyond this life. "Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit" (Romans 15:13).
You can pout your way through your day or you can praise & pray your way through your day, but you can't do both. To rejoice is a choice! "Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you" (I Thessalonians 5:16-18).
Faith that is kept private is a faith that is kept quiet. Conversely, faith that grows diligently in private will be faith that shows vibrantly in public. "The apostles said to the Lord, 'Increase our faith!'” (Luke 17:5)
Where we set our mind will determine what we do with our time. "Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth" (Col. 3:2).
The world is not going to come to Church to find Jesus. And that's why the Church needs to go to the world with Jesus. You see, salt is only effective when it engages with that which it intends to influence. “You are the salt of the earth." --Jesus
Following God's will may not be the easiest, but it is always the best for us. God's will is for His glory and our good; And "our good" doesn't mean we will be happy, healthy, or wealthy, but rather we would be holy. Again, God's will for us...
In the days following Charlie Kirk’s murder, something unexpected happened and the world witnessed it: people returned to church, conversations turned to repentance, and Christ was openly exalted. But whenever God begins to move, the enemy seeks to interrupt the work with confusion and accusation. Jesus told us plainly that Satan is “the father...
I’m squeezing these thoughts out as quickly and shapely as possible, because my window to write today suddenly shrunk. You see, I just realized today is Wednesday, and Sarah and I have to make our weekly trip to our marriage mentors house. Yep! I like the way that came out—“our marriage mentors.” We are so grateful for Scott and Amy Reef, who have been....
Moving on up! Literally, about 25 miles up the Garden State Parkway! Sarah and I recently made the official move to Ocean City, New Jersey, where we are presently calling 10th & Boardwalk our home. I know the season is changing, which will slow the pace of life around here, but it’s still pretty cool to be living above the boardwalk, where the beach makes up our front lawn! Now here is the amazing grace about this place. When I first got out of prison....
I am returning from Memphis, Tennessee today, where Sarah and I spent the past three days on the move. It was a long-awaited reunion for Sarah and her friends, and obviously, it was the first time for me to meet everyone from Sarah’s Memphis days. Only a handful of them were able to make the journey north last November for our wedding, so this trip south was much anticipated for everyone. And of course, it provided the privilege to visit Sarah’s church—High Point Memphis, which I had heard so much about from the Peterson family. And what an experience that was! Not because it was.....
I don’t ever write to brag, but at times I will boast BUT--SOLEY--in the name and work of the Lord. There is a proverb that has come to life for me again and again: “A mans gift makes room for him and brings him before great men” (Proverbs 18:16). Some translations say your gift or ability will usher you before “great men”, “important people” and even “princes”. I have experienced this ever so abundantly since my release from prison. It was this exact time last year, where I was invited....
