You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
When we chase the wind, we end up empty. When we chase the Word, we end up full. The world offers noise; Christ offers nourishment. “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God” (Matthew 4:4).
Satan doesn't try to fill us with hatred for God, but he subtly gets us to forget all about God. In this tactic he paralyzes our perspective and extinguishes our peace. Because to forget about God is to be without power.
A comprised heart leads to a compromised life. Therefore, keep your heart in the Word and the Word will keep your heart.
Considering social media and how people are following us--the question is--are we leading them closer to Jesus? For any other destination is actually dangerous and possibly even disastrous. Turn around from time to time and see who is following you, but more importantly, look ahead all the time to see where you are leading.
Everything you are going through is preparing you for what you prayed for. Remember, God is looking to develop your maturity before He can trust you to handle the responsibility. Trust there is always purpose in the pain.
One of the best ways to show Jesus is by sincere service. You see, selfless service not only breaks down barriers, but it cultivates curiosity because people are not used to being treated with such genuine generosity. When you serve others and expect nothing in return from your service, you begin to show them the heart of Jesus.
There is so much pain in this world and people are desperately looking for help to lift it. Of course no set of circumstances are the same, but let us always remember that the weight of other peoples burdens can be helped along with the right muscle--the heart. Because the best exercise for strengthening your own heart is by reaching down and helping somebody else pick up their burdens.
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...
I just recently spoke in Concord, California at the prestigious Every 15 Minutes Program, held at Carondelet High School & De La Salle High School. This impressive program offers experiences that simulate real-life risks involved with drinking and driving, and texting while driving. The mood is somber and includes a mock funeral with caskets, pallbearers, and even a simulated crash scene, enacted the day before, which replays on the big screen. The room is filled with gloom. It is a stellar attempt to show the real life horrific consequences of drinking and driving. However, the show....
Anytime you decide to take a stand in LIFE, you’re going to have critics. Anytime you commit to leading the WAY, you’re going to have cynics. And anytime you unashamedly present the TRUTH, you’re going to have skeptics. What do these “ics” have in common? Well, most of the time, they don’t know the WAY that Jesus went, the TRUTH that Jesus spoke, or the LIFE that Jesus gave. They don’t know HIM; so don’t let their opinion slow you down from being all about HIM. Choose Jesus and you’ll want for nothing. Refuse Jesus and you’ll want everything, but....
Why do I speak out about my tragedy? Not to glamorize the recklessness, but to promote the perspective shift; To instigate integrity and demonstrate accountability. I close every assembly with this parable for the audience to consider: "There was a hiker lost in the wilderness, who happened upon another man, a pioneer, resting his back against a tree. The lost hiker, frantic and anxious, approached the pioneer to ask him if he could help him find his way out. The pioneer replied, "I cannot help you find your way out, that is ultimately up to you. But I can tell you of paths that you certainly should not take. I can tell you of ways that led me nowhere. I can tell you of mud bogs, snakes pits, and briar patches that you must steer clear from. But how to get out, well, that's up to you." The hiker was confused and......
Ever hear a hissing sound and thought nothing of it? I highly doubt it, because it is usually the hissing sound that tells us something is leaking – like a bike tire. Not too major of a problem, but neither is it minor, while still requiring the “hiss” to be plugged up and fixed. Thus, in the bike tire example, the hissing tells us that there’s a hole in the tube, making the slight leak hinder the entire bike’s use. And if you do not address the “hisssssing,” you very well could hurt yourself when using the bike. Further, sometimes the hissing can be even more catastrophic like a gas leak or a pipe fault. And anyone who....
