You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
The opinions of people can change overnight, but the truth of God never changes. Do not anchor your identity in applause or criticism; anchor it in Christ. Even when whispering surrounds you, the Lord still upholds those who walk in integrity. Heaven’s verdict is greater than earth’s opinion. “The integrity of the upright will guide them…” (Proverbs 11:3).
If God's finger points you into a certain direction, trust that His gracious hand will be with you for full protection. He doesn't send the equipped. He equips those He sends.
To look back in regret is to not be able to move forward into grace. Because although God is the same yesterday, today and forever, He is also a God of present help. Meaning, He cannot lead you forward into His purpose if you are always looking backward into pity.
God will get His. To those who are real with it, that's exciting. But to those who are faking it, that ought to be terrifying. In other words, whatever we sow, we will eventually grow. Whether now or later, God will get His.
Faith in a living God is the only remedy that can revive a dead society. Without faith in Jesus infusing our moral courage, every attempt at "reform" or "progress" will leave behind nothing but carnage. "Moral courage is in short supply and beyond valuable. Yet sadly, it's usually the most absent characteristic in men. If you won't stand for your faith, you won't stand at all" (Lt. General "Jerry" Boykin).
Religion can never grant us peace. Only Jesus can. Politics will never win us liberty. Only Jesus will. Philosophy has never produced lasting love. Only Jesus has. Nothing in this known world can save a soul. Only Jesus.
Real men love Jesus, live for Jesus, and lead others to Jesus. Period. For there is no other realness apart from Christ-righteousness.
What we are witnessing in these protests and walkouts is not random unrest, but the fruit of decades of moral decay left untreated. When a nation rejects God’s order long enough, disorder does not merely grow, it metastasizes. Not because rightly ordered authority causes rebellion, but because rebellion...
I was at an event this past weekend when I ran into a close friend of my parents. He immediately came up to me and gave me a warm hug. After the initial greeting, he said, "God is so amazing, isn't He? Could you have ever imagined being where you are today from where you once were--in the midst of tragedy?" To be honest, I couldn’t imagine....
I’m squeezing these thoughts out as quickly and shapely as possible, because my window to write today suddenly shrunk. You see, I just realized today is Wednesday, and Sarah and I have to make our weekly trip to our marriage mentors house. Yep! I like the way that came out—“our marriage mentors.” We are so grateful for Scott and Amy Reef, who have been....
Moving on up! Literally, about 25 miles up the Garden State Parkway! Sarah and I recently made the official move to Ocean City, New Jersey, where we are presently calling 10th & Boardwalk our home. I know the season is changing, which will slow the pace of life around here, but it’s still pretty cool to be living above the boardwalk, where the beach makes up our front lawn! Now here is the amazing grace about this place. When I first got out of prison....
I am returning from Memphis, Tennessee today, where Sarah and I spent the past three days on the move. It was a long-awaited reunion for Sarah and her friends, and obviously, it was the first time for me to meet everyone from Sarah’s Memphis days. Only a handful of them were able to make the journey north last November for our wedding, so this trip south was much anticipated for everyone. And of course, it provided the privilege to visit Sarah’s church—High Point Memphis, which I had heard so much about from the Peterson family. And what an experience that was! Not because it was.....
