Today was not a typical Sunday, my family and I went to another church to celebrate a birthday. And throughout the daily activities, I was challenged in more ways than I’d like to admit. From simple things like examining someone else’s life, getting hung up on the elements that surrounded me, and realizing one thing […]

A few weeks back this thought came to me, “Is there always someone worse off then me?” Now that thought or question may seem simple, but I feel that it carries a tremendous amount of weight to us as humans. If we stop… and truly think about that question, how much of a different direction […]

For the past few days God has set certain challenges in my way. I wouldn’t even call them challenges, it’s more like what I’m called to do, and that is share the Gospel. There were times that I failed to do what God asked me to do, I was convicted, and pressed to do it […]

Driving home from the store this evening, after a day of calls, conversations, and other job related endeavors, I had this thought come across my mind. “I need to talk to myself like a preacher!” What does that mean?

Now feel free to read through it, but what jumped out to me was relevant then and is definitely still relevant today! The passage talks about the Israelites following the pillar of cloud or the pillar of […]

I was listening to the Bible on my way to work and I just finished listening to Exodus chapter 23. This chapter along with others in the Old Testament have extensive lists of what the Israelites need to do and what they don’t need to do. So it made me think, why so extensive, why […]

So last night I was struggling. I was struggling because I thought of something else I needed to do. In regards to my “busy” schedule, something else came to my mind that I needed to accomplish. Now before the thought comes to your mind that “I’m busy too, everyone is busy,” trust me I understand. […]

Jesus is love, that is who He is.  AW Tozer says, “Jesus Christ knows the worst about you. Nonetheless, He is the One who loves you the most.” So…what does it look like for Jesus to show love? Do we just think about the “typical” loving ways? Things like when Jesus heals the lame or […]
