You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
God’s providence is not simply when circumstances work out the way we hoped. He is just as sovereign in the valley as He is on the mountaintop, in the unanswered prayer as He is in the answered one. Faith doesn't require us to understand every circumstance; it trusts the God who stands over every circumstance. “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).
Nothing in this world can change our relation to sin unless we become "born again." Because to choose Christ as the King of your soul is to dethrone sin from being in control. "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." --Jesus
The Bible says to "cast your cares," not carry them (1 Peter 5:7). Why? Because God not only cares for us, but He also knows what anxiety can do to us. Thus, what are you holding onto that you need to give to God because He cares for you?
Our root determines our fruit, which lends the question--are we rooted in the Son or in sin? One way produces liberty, while the other way produces slavery. "Jesus answered them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, whoever commits...
Jesus wasn't just a godly man, but He was actually God who became Man. And because of this divine empathy, you can trust Him with your weakness and frailty. "For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize...
It is incompatible to know that God bought you, while still living as if sin owns you. "For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's" (I Corinthians 6:20). You see, when we...
God specializes in using broken people to do powerful things. "God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong" (I Cor. 1:27). So don't hide your weakness, but rather give every ounce of it to Jesus to be used for His purpose.
I haven’t stopped thinking about a question that came in during the final minutes of Wednesday night’s question-and-answer service. I recognize that many people have sincere and important questions surrounding this subject, so I wanted to reply with a more organized answer. Someone asked, “Why doesn’t Landmark Church have a deliverance ministry?”
[Written from prison in 2012, but recently speaking about the upside-down-ness of the world got me thinking about this past blog and how it is only the love of God that can turn an upside down world right-side-up.] The Upside Down Kingdom of prison--where the hierarchy is an anarchy. It’s supposed to be under the law, but its decree is outlaw. Without law. The violent don’t even have to take it by force, it’s given by course. What was done outside the gates is what grants you access to the throne. Preceding acts of murder make one royalty and the lives taken are referred to as bodies. Crowns. The most ruthless citizens come into this Upside Down Kingdom by way of carnage and destruction; and by their...
I was a prisoner most of my young life. Confined to other's approval. In bondage to performance and accomplishment. And when I did not get the approval or perform according to accomplishment, the chains of 'doing' squeezed out the liberty of 'being.' And whether you do or don't, you're imprisoned by the....
I guess you can call me a mistake, or an accident, or at best a giant surprise-- because my parents didn’t plan on having me. And you might even call me slow or challenged because that’s what the doctor predicted I would probably be. Whatever you call it— I’m here! So herein lies the story: One hot summer day
[Sneak Peek of "When God Had My Back" (Coming Soon)] I was new to the prison yard, being in the building for only few months at this point, but I was no stranger to playing basketball with the brothers. I’m an athlete by nature and though it had been several years since I last won a high school basketball State Championship, I jumped right back into the...
