Proverbs 22:7 – “The rich rule over the poor, and the borrower is slave to the lender.” I’ll be honest, this is one of those principles I wish I had fully grasped in my twenties.

Be Smart with Money
Proverbs 21:5 – “The plans of the diligent lead surely to abundance, but everyone who is hasty comes only to poverty.” Let’s be honest—most of us were never taught how to handle money. We were taught how to earn it… maybe even how to give a little of it… but when it came to managingContinue reading “Be Smart with Money”
Money Is a Worship Issue
1 Timothy 6:10 – “For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil.” Money isn’t the enemy.But when it becomes the object of your trust, affection, or identity—it’s no longer a tool.

If I’m being honest, this is a question I wrestle with more often than I’d like to admit: Am I enough? Am I a good enough leader at work? Do I belong in the rooms I’m invited into, or am I just faking it until someone finds me out? Am I a good enough husband—lovingContinue reading “Am I Enough?”
No Waste in the Wait
Where is God calling me? I have gotten very clear and poignant messages on direction from God for a good part of my life. I haven’t always listened. But what is surprising to me is the lack of direction He is providing currently in my life. I still get God Nod’s or Nudges and confirmationsContinue reading “No Waste in the Wait”
Yes, I Will
This morning, in my quiet time, I started off feeling like a disappointment to God. I am pretty consistently in the word. And I listen to more sermons per week than I ever thought was humanly possible, via podcasts, church re-plays, and live in-person preaching. A constant theme in most of these messages is howContinue reading “Yes, I Will”
