You Have Been Set Free
Too many of us live as if we are still imprisoned by our sin, sorrow and struggles with no way out of the cell that controls and limits us. Too often we let our regrets from the past, imperfections in the present and fears of the future enslave us as if we are...
Jesus Is The Solid Rock On Which We Stand
It is hard to know who or what to believe. It is hard to know what is real and what is fake. It is hard to distinguish between fact and fiction. It is hard to know who is telling us the whole truth, who is withholding the truth, who is distorting the truth, who is...
You Have Been Blessed; Now Go Be A Blessing
God has not blessed us with time just so we can use it binge-watching Netflix. He has not blessed us with money just so we can spend it on more comforts. He has not blessed us with abilities and skills just so we can serve our own interests and passions. The...
We Will Finish The Race
In a world of seemingly endless uncertainties, there is something that we can be absolutely sure of: God will finish what He started in us. There is zero chance He will fail. God has begun a good work in us, and He will work all things together for good to ensure...

It’s Okay To Not Be Okay
It’s okay to not be okay. It’s not okay to stay that way. Self-sufficiency was never a part of God’s design for us. From mankind’s beginning, He purposed that we would be a people who needed help. Help from Him. Help from each other. To those He called to be in...
There Is Much I Don’t Know
There is so much I don’t know. Every day I am aware of my limitations for figuring things out on my own. I often don’t know… What to say. What to think. What to do. What to pray. What to desire. What to prioritize. What to decline. What to give. What to believe....
Our Lives Are About Jesus
It’s easy to be mistaken about this. It’s easy to assume this. It’s easy to believe this. It’s easy to want this. It’s easy to live like this. What is this? The idea that your life is about you. It’s not. The Bible teaches over and over again that your life is...
