Job 42

If you haven’t read the book of Job, I encourage you to read it. Especially given today’s social climate in the US. Seriously, read it… I will wait. But before you go – read all of it. Don’t stop before the end. As painful as Job’s situation is, keep reading. Because the last eight versesContinue reading “Job 42”

You are Called

You are called to do greater things. I don’t know where you are in this world, or in your walk with God. But I know He has a plan for you and is currently exposing to you a step along that path. It may not be what you hoped for or envisioned for yourself. ItContinue reading “You are Called”

Choose God

We live in unprecedented and uncertain times. We are in our third month of a worldwide pandemic. Over 5 million cases and over 330,000 deaths to date. And while the numbers continue to rise at an alarming pace in the US, most states are beginning to relax mandatory closures and imposed restrictions. Most of usContinue reading “Choose God”

Be Fulfilled

Many of us find ourselves chasing fulfillment. Christians and non-believers alike. We are looking for that person, place, or thing that makes us feel happy, that makes us feel complete. And this uncontrollable desire for fulfillment often leads to unrest and discontentment in our lives. When we seek fulfillment in other people we might findContinue reading “Be Fulfilled”

Surrounded by weeds

In my Bible, there is a single verse that has been highlighted, underlined, bookmarked, and jotted down more than any other verse. It is not the most popular verse in the Bible. It is not even all that widely known. It isn’t on t-shirts or bumper stickers. Your grandmother probably doesn’t have it cross stitchedContinue reading “Surrounded by weeds”

Conquer Your Jordan

I struggle with negativity, skepticism, cynicism, and distrust. Often this makes me a very sarcastic, introverted, and standoffish. I have been hurt by many people whom I have invested a great deal of trust. Becoming a Christian has not fixed these behavior traits, but it has helped me recognize them. God’s word has helped meContinue reading “Conquer Your Jordan”

Don’t forget the rest

For an old guy, I go pretty hard. I am constantly on the go, I move from one project or task to the next. Obviously, from my physical appearance, most of my tasks require mental acuteness rather than physical endurance, but still on-the-go. It seems that no matter how much I accomplish or how muchContinue reading “Don’t forget the rest”

Significant Stephen

Having started my walk with Christ a little late in life, my career was already established, my marriage was already on solid foundation, and my children were well on their way to becoming responsible adults. Naturally, as the fire entered my bones and my devotion to follow Christ began, I started to evaluate my morality,Continue reading “Significant Stephen”

All you got

In our broken world, we are obsessed with more. We want what we don’t have, and we package this desire as “drive”. Now, I am not going to sit here and condemn the pull and motivation to accomplish greater things, but where we fall short as humans is the appreciation of where we are andContinue reading “All you got”
