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).
Matthew Maher presents Daily Dose: "When He had said this, He showed them His hands and feet" (Luke 24:40). Don't hide your scars. Let them tell your story as a way to help somebody else get through their agony. Even Jesus bore His scars to soothe a doubting heart, so why not let your scars be where somebody else's healing starts?
Matthew Maher presents Daily Dose: "And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God" (Romans 8:28). Nothing has been accidental or coincidental in your life. In fact, everything that has transpired has been providential in your life. Think of it! God has ordered your entire life for your maximum benefit and His supreme glory; but will you accept it--the good, the bad, the ugly--which is the first step in seeing His perfect plan and His gracious hand in your life?
Matthew Maher presents Daily Dose: "For the LORD your God goes with you; He will never leave you nor forsake you" (Deuteronomy 31:6). There is a divine purpose behind every hardship. And if God has allowed it to touch your life, than He will be right there with you so you can touch His life.
Matthew Maher presents Daily Dose: You can impress people from afar, but impact happens up close. Consider this! God didn't just call out from heaven with good news. No! He came down from heaven and died in our place to give us good news. Eternal impact. Up close and personal in Jesus. He is our good news.
Matthew Maher presents Daily Dose: You can never go too far from God, for He has already gone farther than you. Jesus went to the cross to cover the complete distance of our sin--past, present, and future.
Matthew Maher presents Daily Dose: "Be still and know....." (Psalm 46:10). Be still even if life is spinning around you because stillness always gives a fresh perspective in a world that’s hectic. Stillness is a peace of heaven that transcends earths....
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...
There are so many times in this post-prison journey where I am in utter awe of God and how He works out His perfectly designed plan for our lives—often in spite of us. So for more than a year now, I find myself in numerous settings thinking ‘Only God!’ Today is another one of those days, as I am writing this from the beautiful town of Lancaster, Pennsylvania (and writing hastily I might add)! You see, we are between sessions of a conference called Catalyst: Practical Leadership Up close. And our executive leadership staff is here. And once again I have one of those moments as.....
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....
