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...
The everyday pressures I face, when compared to my former pressures, is the difference between a hurricane and a light rain. An umbrella adequately covers one; but there are limited safety precautions for the other. Prison pressure was a hurricane, making life’s current pressure nothing but a light rain. I was in an earthly form of hell for over 4 and 1/2 years, yet I emerged....
In honor of my mother’s newly released book “SLAMMED,” and it’s emphasis on faith in God in the midst of a storm, I would like to share an abbreviated version of the words spoken at my brother John’s funeral -- nine years ago-- on behalf of my mother by her friend. (It’s worth the longer read!)-------- An amazing thing happened three decades ago in Bayside Village. There in the spring of 1978, John and Cherri Olsen—that’s my husband and me and our baby son John moved into the barn-style house at 110 Oakdale Ave. directly across the street from the barn-style house at 109 Oakdale Ave, where John and Andrea Maher lived with their baby son, John. And I noticed right away that their house was......
I must say --with all humility-- that I do not care who follows me on social media. I obviously take these platforms seriously based on the content of my posts and pictures; and I hope whoever is following me feels as if I am leading them somewhere worthwhile. It is truly my intent to instigate integrity, inspire initiative, and infuse insight through these vehicles. And I get it, everyone wants as many followers as possible when it comes to these channels -- more followers equals more popularity…I guess. I am not trying to lose followers, and my desire is not to gain followers.....
Yesterday was exactly 5 years since my sentencing day. The day I was physically incarcerated, but spiritually liberated (I-VII-X). And much has happened in this time-span. Much has grown. Much has died. Much has multiplied. You see, I could not visualize where I’d be weeks, months, or years from that fateful day that I was sentenced away. I could only see the moments before me and the opportunities around me. Both presented decisions to be made--Maximize the situation or criticize my life’s condition? I think....
