You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
Spiritual darkness doesn’t rush in, it creeps in when light fades. The greatest threat to truth isn’t open rebellion, but quiet compromise. And history proves: when the Church loses conviction, culture breeds deception. “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden" (Matthew 5:14).
What the world calls work, the believer can call worship. In other words, no matter how mundane the work may be, when we do it unto the Lord, it becomes a mountain of worship. "And whatever you do, whether in word...
We will never have a grip on the things of God if we cannot loosen our grip from the things of this world. You see, the fuller our hands are from the lusts around us, the emptier our heart is of the love of Jesus. "Do not love the world or...
In the pursuit of being a deep theologian, so many completely miss the simplicity of just being a Christian. You see, it’s not about how much we may know intellectually, but how well we show what we know truthfully and lovingly. This means we are called to lovingly speak out truth and to truthfully live out love.
What makes the love of Christ so powerful is how He chooses to share His love with the pitiful--that's me and you. In other words, His love is so pure and perfect, and to come to the realization that He shares it with...
Those who make a claim on Christ without their conduct following Christ are actually counterfeiting Christ. And conversely, to truly know Him is to truly show Him. "Only let your conduct be worthy of the gospel of Christ" (Philippians 1:27).
Loving one another is an essential mark of a true Christian. Without love for our neighbor, one cannot claim to have the love of the Savior. "Jesus said, 'You shall love the Lord your God...And you shall love your neighbor as yourself'" (Matthew 22:37-40).
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...
Let's just say I couldn't see this day six years ago.....though, while I was "there", I imagined it every year that my family was here. And it is the imagination that can often be a preview of coming attractions. Anyway, last time I was in Florida was 6 years ago--post-tragedy and pre-prison. And as Magic Kingdom was an amusement option during that time with my family--please understand--it wasn't ALL "Disney" for me....In fact, I would soon be....
("Imprisoned by Peace" is Book #1 of 5 from the Core Conviction Series and was written while I was in prison): Where have I been most of my young life thus far? I have been all over the country in my travels with soccer, from childhood as a novice player to adulthood as a professional athlete. I have been to so many great colleges and universities, visiting those campuses either for pleasure or sports-related activities. I have even lived in some beautiful cities in my day. But where have I been while being where I was? Now in prison, I realize that though I have been all over and claimed to be a man of faith, I made this claim when I was “beside myself.” I never fully understood that I was going through the motions in life spiritually and that there needed to be a catalyst that would bring me “back to myself.” I found my way from here to there, but I was lost! This View Apart from my prison experience is...
I’m going against the culture curve at a frequency so loud that the message will be heard. The world takes no shame in their game--so why should I--when it’s their message that fouls up the brain and fills it with lies. Where is the voice in the gap calling America’s youth back? Not Joel Osteen and a sugar coated appeal! But for the sake of the soul, we need the truth so raw, the gospel message so real. I’ll tell it to you straight with uncompromising conviction. Forging my way in the wilderness and not scared of such friction. It’s not my opinion anyway nor my attempt to sway your opinion; it’s just my behavior that's following the very life of a Champion. Jesus the Christ, who went against the culture curve Himself by....
I was recently “tweeted at” from 2 different students. Not only 2 different students, but students from 2 different schools. And not only 2 different schools; but 2 different climates that defined the culture in each of those schools. You see, upon entering the one school I was personally greeted by the Superintendent, who sat with me for 30 minutes “shooting the breeze,” and even encouraged me to keep speaking out (though he had not heard the message yet). At the other school, I wasn’t met or greeted by anyone on staff. I was actually ignored until I asked if I could find my way to the auditorium to set up. And one thing I’ve learned from doing this on a daily basis is that the culture of any school starts at the top and flows downward....
