You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
Light doesn’t argue with darkness, it simply shines into it. And darkness has no defense against even the smallest flame. In the same way, you don’t have to out-shout the culture or win every argument, you just have to out-shine it with Christ in you. "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden" (Matthew 5:14).
Whatever consumes your mind controls your life. Let it be the love of Jesus.
The quickest way to extinguish the work of God in your life is to begin living for yourself. Self always eclipses the light of the Savior. Conversely, the quickest way to exalt the work of God in your life is to begin living for Jesus. God's favor follows the person who follows the Savior.
God has a plan for your life and it's more glorious than you can even imagine. You need not worry about what it looks like or how it's going to work out. Just worship the Lord with gladness and leave the consequences up to Him.
It is impossible to have an ear for the Lord if your heart is tuned to the noise of the world. Therefore, get alone with the Lord in silence so that He can re-tune your heart to follow Him in obedience.
We were created for so much more than to just sit in a sanctuary every Saturday night or Sunday morning. We were created to change the world beyond the building. We were created to get up from the pews and tell the world the Good News. We were created to be different and make a difference
When we look at our changing circumstances, such a shaky view is going to shake our faith. But when we look to an unchanging God, such a steady view births a stable faith.
On Labor Day weekend, I’ll begin a new teaching series at Landmark Church titled “The Last Revelation: Countdown To The Kingdom.” For the past several months, I’ve been studying, praying, and seeking the Lord in preparation for what He desires to...
With yet another senseless tragedy, I know it is easy to become fatigued by sympathy. I mean, you cannot turn on the news these days without bad news dominating our eyes and ultimately creating anger, angst, or apathy within our hearts. Yet for the individual who calls them-self a "Christian," we must remember how Jesus said "in this world...
Being out of prison for this long, you'd probably think that I wouldn't still be in contact with so many jail-birds. No, not my former peers! I’m referring to my new friends at the seashore--seagulls. You see, seagulls were a common sight in the big yard and by watching them, I found some interesting parallels...
It is quite easy to be discontent with the place where God has placed you. Actually, it is because we lose sight of God's grace that we fight the place where God has chosen to plant us. But when we recognize that we are right where we need to be--which means we are surrendered to God's will--we become trees of righteousness, planted by the Lord for His glory through...
[Admin Note: This is a journal entry from Matthew's time in prison, recorded on October 16th, 2010] I failed terribly today, and I have to admit, it was well worth it. I tend to suffer most in the recovery following these moments of failure, but trust that the more I suffer, the more I will eventually have to offer others.
