So many times we expect that once we accepted Christ as our savior, life will get easy. We have this unrealistic expectation that walking with Christ will be an easy and smooth path. That our trials and tribulations died on the cross with Him. This is not the Promise. In fact – the Bible warnsContinue reading “Peace Comes From Trust”

Anxiously Astray
Looking back over my life it is clear to me now that I have always struggled with anxiety. While most of the time this “thorn in my flesh” has been very mild and some times not detectable at all – there have been times where its crippling grip has shut me down for days atContinue reading “Anxiously Astray”
The Other Side
To me, one of the most confusing aspects of our world, especially our country, and even in our Church, is the divisive and combative nature of our interactions. It is almost as if we are not allowed to disagree, at least not without despising each other. Sure we all have our opinions. Yes, we allContinue reading “The Other Side”
My Desk
My desk wasn’t always a desk. The main component, the desk top itself, is much older than me. It is an interesting collection of hand-cut hardwood planks held together by hand-forged metal banding. It was never intended to be a desk. In fact, it was created for a very different purpose. It was originally createdContinue reading “My Desk”
From Why Not? to YES!
One year ago today, I walked into the ocean with my wife and two sons. I stood there as I watched both of my boys be submerged in the waves and smiled uncontrollably as they were brought out of the water with new life. Then they turned to my wife and I and, just asContinue reading “From Why Not? to YES!”
The Struggle is Real
We all have flaws and weaknesses. Some are self-inflicted and some are the result of the acts of others. Whatever the cause, they are there for us to battle and struggle with, and for many of us, we will battle our entire lives to overcome them. For me, one of my biggest struggles is myContinue reading “The Struggle is Real”
Everyone Gets a Trophy
Every generation thinks the one before lost touch and didn’t understand the plights our generation faces. And the next generation is soft and has it easier than we do. Neither thought is completely accurate. Many things are easier for each generation, but many things are harder or more complicated. One is not better than theContinue reading “Everyone Gets a Trophy”
Good Works
Since becoming a Christian I have struggled with understanding how the work I do in my career plays a part in building God’s kingdom. How can I possibly be practicing the values and teachings of Christ in my purely secular job? In what way am I making this world better? Am I wasting my timeContinue reading “Good Works”
No Waste in the Wait
I have had a pretty bad run lately. It has seemed like every thing I try to do fails and everything I touch just falls apart. Bad news after sickness. Sickness after struggle. Struggle after failure. The hits just keep on coming. We have all been there. And for most of us the natural reactionContinue reading “No Waste in the Wait”
Isolation
I am no stranger to spending time alone. For years I have traveled for work and often spend time in hotel rooms lost in a book, movie, podcast, or wasting time on social media. I have no problem sitting alone with my own thoughts. But in those cases, there was always the option to haveContinue reading “Isolation”
