I can see God sitting on the edge of his seat, watching with the intensity of a game changing play in the Superbowl... "Did you see that! Did you see that! I'm wearing my David jersey! He just killed that play!"

Dwelling In The Crucible
They were not only content to do what they had always done, their life depended upon it. So, they would rather die doing what they knew what was right for them, than live with something that would not give them life and meaning.
Prove It, God…
More literally, Make me see your glory. I know it's here, it's around me, it's in your promise, but right now, I need to see it. I need to know it's real, not just because I believe it. If I am going to be present in this, I need you to be present in it too.
Choose Life: A Culture In Need of Revolution
I am sitting in my room, the day before I celebrate the passing of another year. However, when I should be reflecting on my blessings and doing my best to not look 53 (whatever that looks like), I can't... I can't because our country is in peril. I refer, of course to the continued killing …

I am a person that likes to have everything in order, and definitely on time. Delays don't work well for me. I'm sure that delays don't work well for most people. So, when I was reading this week, I was struck by a delay, by none other than Jesus: Now Thomas, one of the Twelve, …
Things Not Adding Up: Need for Authentic Relationship
Yesterday, I had a God encounter, and it disturbed me... Still does... It was about 95 degrees out, I was comfortably in my car, pulling out of a shopping center parking lot. I was driving slow, as there were various people walking around me. As I was about to make the turn out, I was …

A Love Like No Other
Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends – John 15:13 Where Do We Start Actually we are not going to start where you would think. Typically Easter messages pick up from where Good Friday, the death of Jesus left off, and speak of the good news of …
