You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
The world will try to pull your eyes to the chaos, but the Word calls you to fix your eyes on Christ. Stability isn’t found in the absence of storms, it’s found in the presence of the Savior who never changes. Keep your focus where your footing is firm. "You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You" (Isaiah 26:3).
Joy may be seen with a smile—but deep and abiding joy is clearly seen through a trial. You see, joy becomes the composure of the soul when we surrender to the truth that God is always in control. "May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you...
Great souls are ones that experience great sorrows. We may not like the feel of a sorrow, but when placed into the hands of God, we can begin to heal and become stronger for tomorrow. Thus, in God's economy, no pain is wasted, and everything is...
God's peace is for the present. In other words, it's a present peace. So when we the live in the past or we stress the future, God's present peace can no longer be peace in the present. You see, in order for God's peace to be present, our minds...
It is easy to charge God with wrong when we are wrong about God’s charge. You see, if we think God the Father is more like the Godfather, then we will assume God is out to get us. But He is not out to get us, but rather, His perfect providence is intended...
Let this be a reminder: It's not our righteous actions that puts us into a relationship with Christ. It's our relationship with Christ that produces righteous actions. In other words, it's our connection to Him that causes our life to be a reflection of Him, in word and in deed. "He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked" (1 John 2:6).
In these deceiving days, be careful of what you believe in and be mindful of the people you lean on. Be cautious of the voices you heed and be on guard with the sources you read. You see, nobody sets out to get lost nor do many ever consider the...
America is not just drifting from God—it is in open defiance of Him. When evil is praised and order is condemned, you know the times are twisted. The Governor of California and the Mayor of Los Angeles are calling law enforcement an “abuse of power”—while defending the rioters wreaking havoc in the streets. Like I said in this past weekend’s...
My sentencing day January 7th, 2010, came fast. Each day leading up to it was like the rushing sands in an hour glass pouring non-stop reminders that soon it would be empty and reckoning day was near; time flew by from Thanksgiving spilling right into Christmas. The holidays, with all their promise of hope and glad tidings, seemed mechanical and surreal. I felt detached; indifferent. The warm and fuzzy reminders of past family gatherings only added to the strain of going through the motions, putting on a face of hope, when all real enchantment was gone. In addition, this time of the year always brought to our remembrance the life of my brother who passed away....
The following was written to my parents three weeks after my accident on April 1, 2009. My mother recently found it in a pile of notes in her old Bible. Considering I just got done teaching “You Are What You Keep,” Part 2 of our series Unbreakable ReSOULutions at my church, I am in awe of what the Holy Spirit guided me to write--that many years ago. This is just a portion of the three-page letter: Dad and Mom: So where do I begin? My mind races every moment of the day and I still....
Have you ever heard the term “Swan Song?” It refers to the ancient belief that swans sing a beautiful song in the moment just before death, having been silent or not so musical during most of their lifetime. Stemmed from Greek mythology, I find there is some metaphorical truth to this. It is often in our darkest moments that we have a decision to make regarding....
Nobody can curse what God has blessed.I will testify that having a “Merry Christmas” has nothing to do with presents and everything to do with His presence. And guess what? From the beginning of time, God allows His promises to be born in strange places. “In a manger” (Luke 2:7). My Savior was born outside the world’s acceptance. “No room for them in the inn” (Luke 2:7). Having a "Merry Christmas" isn't about being liked by the crowd.......
