You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
Faith isn’t proven by getting what we want, but by trusting the Lord even when we don’t. Even when healing delays or the answer is “wait,” grace still holds us. Because sometimes God doesn’t remove the struggle, but He always stays with us in it. “Trophimus I have left in Miletus sick" (2 Timothy 4:20).
If I speak and they don't hear Jesus, then I'm better off speechless. If I'm watched and they don't see authentic confidence, then I'm better off staying anonymous. If I'm given a platform and I don't magnify God's glory, then I'm better off not even telling my story. HE > i
Matthew Maher presents Daily Dose: "To be comfortable with the temporary world around you is to be complacent to the eternal world above you. And without conviction for Christ's commission, can you really call yourself a Christian?"
Matthew Maher presents Daily Dose: "But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8). Only those who are truly aware of the ugliness of their sin against God can be truly aware of the beauty of Gods grace toward them.
Matthew Maher presents Daily Dose: "Therefore, submit to God" (James 4:7). If we are not constantly submitting to God, then we are likely drifting from Him. If you don't feel as close to God as you used to, the question is, "who moved?"
Matthew Maher presents Daily Dose: Jesus not only knew everything intellectually, but He was also willing to show what He knew passionately. You see, a head full of knowledge means nothing without a heart full of compassion. We must be willing to feel the pain in the people around us in order to show them the reason for our hope and healing within us. And the closer we get to Jesus, the more compassion we will have for people.
Matthew Maher presents Daily Dose: "Set your mind on the things above, not on the things that are on earth" (Colossians 3:2). If we are always watching other people and worrying about what they are doing with their lives, then we will miss what God is trying to do in our lives. He stays speaking to us and that is why we have to stay looking to Him.
Comparative Analysis: Christianity vs. Islam Revelation and Textual Integrity: The Bible vs. The Quran • Muhammad claimed to have received revelations from the angel Gabriel for about 23 years, starting in 609 AD. The result was a sea of contradictions...
Here I sit on my comfortable couch with a 55-inch flat screen tv in front of me and my state of the art MacBook on top of me. I just controlled the lighting to my liking and before I go any further—please excuse me—I’m going to grab a quick drink and snack from the fridge…Okay, I’m back now, still comfortable, but at a loss for words to type. And I’m humbly reminded how this is the complete opposite of how I used to write while in prison. Yet I never had an ounce of trouble writing a full page of deep thoughts graciously surrounded by peace in the midst of so much chaos and so little comfort. Back then, I typed on an antiquated....
“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....
