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).
Our greatest need is not to be successful materially nor is it to be healthy physically. Nope. Our greatest need in life is to have a relationship with Jesus Christ ultimately. Because nothing in this world can fill the hole in the soul except Him.
The institute of marriage was divinely designed to protect the family and give God glory. Let us therefore, protect the fabric of the family by sewing the image of Jesus into the seams of our marriages, which means we need to start seeing the way He see's marriage.
God knew every mistake and error you would ever make, and He knew this even before the very first breath you would ever take. In other words, it is your shortcomings and failures that make you eligible for a Savior. Therefore, stop focusing on your mess and start celebrating the cross.
The moment of your greatest sacrifice will also be the precise moment of your greatest and most miraculous blessing.
When we place our faith in Jesus, we are justified. In other words, JUST-IF-I'D never sinned in the first place. Again, when we place our faith in Jesus, the Father no longer sees us in sin, but He sees us in His Son.
The gift that God gave you will get you there, but only the favor of God can keep you there. Therefore, do not let your gift become your god, but let the true God make much of Himself through the gift.
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?”
Some may call it an epiphany, but I choose to call it a symphony, because these thoughts are music to my soul. I didn’t have to write this blog, I got to. I don't have to wake up and get in the Word, I get to. I don’t have to share my heart as I speak in schools, it’s a blessing to. I don’t have to prepare messages for church...
These thoughts were written in March of 2013 while I was incarcerated at Mid-State Correctional Facility. As I re-read them now all of this time later, I realize they are still appropriate. These thoughts are still the desire of my heart ("that Jesus may increase and I may decrease"): "I just want to be avoided or overlooked by my peers and especially by the...
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 allow...
I strike several keys on my word processor, stringing unrelatable words together, and then I pause. Backspace. Backspace. I hold down the backspace key until the screen is blank again. If the machine could speak it would say, “STOP PUSHING BUTTONS!” Not yet! Because I cannot rest until...
