You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
Before the cross, there was a deal made in the dark. Judas didn’t fall in a moment, he drifted over time until proximity to Jesus meant nothing. You can be close to Christ and still compromise if your heart isn’t surrendered. Guard your devotion, because what you treasure will determine what you trade. “What are you willing to give me if I deliver Him to you?” (Matthew 26:15)
If truth be told, the only way to not be conformed to the world and its pull, is to daily allow the Word of God to transform the soul. You see, because of the inherent sin in our skin, we are inclined to be worldly. However, because of the...
Faith isn't about personal happiness, but rather glorifying God no matter what happens to us. You see, real faith honors God and God honors real faith.
You may still be in a storm, but the moment you learn to "be still" in the storm and know that God is in control, is the very moment the storm no longer controls you and His peace can enter your soul. "Be still and know that I am God" (Psalm 46:10).
Religion can never bring us to God and that's why God brought Himself to us. He desires relationship over religion.
There is no freedom in freedom itself. Freedom is only found in Jesus Himself. In other words, we can "declare independence" on a calendar, but true liberty begins with dependence upon a Savior. "So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed" (John 8:36).
As much as we may think so, we don't need a better set of circumstances. Truthfully, we just need to set our eyes on Jesus. Because to see Him is to know you need nothing but Him. "The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want" (Psalm 23:1).
What we are witnessing in these protests and walkouts is not random unrest, but the fruit of decades of moral decay left untreated. When a nation rejects God’s order long enough, disorder does not merely grow, it metastasizes. Not because rightly ordered authority causes rebellion, but because rebellion...
“If you have any negative questions, comments, or concerns, please forward them to my Complaint Department. His name is Little John.” ✝ I say that jokingly in assemblies sometimes, and it certainly gets the audience laughing; because at this point in the presentation, they have already heard me share a story about Little John and I, which involves some prison drama and a tense showdown with some gang members. Of course I couple the story with his picture to drive the oxymoron home about Little John--not being so little......
Our performance doesn’t enhance or reduce God’s faithfulness. And with that opening sentence, it is my utmost privilege to report that God is still in the salvaging business despite our idea behind our own personal usefulness. Sarah and I recently participated in a youth event in Pennsylvania where I was the keynote speaker of the night. I’ve done this particular “presentation” before, which requires PowerPoint slides and embedded video; for it is the most structured way to tell my story without getting caught up in certain areas and timelines. Time is always ticking....
I am currently in Paramus, NJ, where this hotel will be Sarah and mines home away from home for the next 3 days. I am up here for several assemblies at area schools, funded by State Farm, and in conjunction with the Be Still Foundation. Now that school is back in session, my speaking engagement schedule is in full throttle. I will actually be doing about 26 engagements before the New Year, not counting ministry-speaking platforms. Again, I make mention of this busyness because....
I always try to write out of a storehouse of my own experiences and feelings. I mean, when I present hope as being the anchor of the soul through a struggle, I'm not just throwing out a platitude. I’m doing so from having lived through the paralyzing feel of struggle. Many struggles. However I have learned that hope is a handle, that allows for you to open up....
