Faith vs Belief: Love That Casts Out Fear

So I made the comment yesterday that, “Believing is not Faith”. I’m confident of this and I believe that, while related, they are drastically different. Faith is not believing in God’s goodness only when we are out of the storm; faith is believing in God’s goodness right in the middle of it. The...

From Anxiety to Faith: Who Holds Your Future

Are we addressing the real issues in our anxiety over what the future holds? Is our anxiety a product of not knowing what the future holds? I submit to you that we are anxious because WE are trying to control what happens and not truly giving our lives to God to navigate. We may “believe” he has...

God's Grace is Greater Than Our Sin

We’ve been doing this since sometime in 2018. I know I’ve written le about 1615 devotionals. I don’t think that’s all of them because I’m sure I’ve accidentally deleted some and reused some…but I digress. In the beginning, I use to sign off our devotionals with God is greater than me.

Justified by Faith Alone

Ah…the weekend is here. I’ve been thinking the last couple of days about the journey we have been on together and some of the topics I’ve chased down rabbit holes. Not that I think they’re necessarily bad topics or irrelevant, I just think it’s good to get back to center. Level set, if you will....

Don't Hide Your God-Given Talents

This World Needs Jesus: Be Bringers of Hope

Well, we’ve made it to Friday. It’s been a weird week for me for sure. But something stood out this week that’s been eating on me. I had a conversation with a guy I know and he referred to something that clearly had God’s hands written all over it as, “that’s just good Juju…” whatever that means....

Do You Want to Be Healed? Moving Beyond Circumstances

In these lay a multitude of invalids—blind, lame, and paralyzed.One man was there who had been an invalid fo...

Faith: Seeing God's Love in His Beautiful Creation

As I sit here watching the sun come up this morning thinking about what this holiday is all about, I can’t help but marvel at the beauty God has made. How do I know he made it? Well, I have faith that he did. It’s the same faith that I have in Him that allows me to grow closer to Him. You see, de...

Growing Faith Through Compassionate Service

I love feedback from everyone (just not on the group message, haha) and I always appreciate a good conversation around the messages I send out. Especially when they hit home and are appreciated. I genuinely cherish each of you and love the exchanges. “When two or more are gathered” right!? For me...

Am I Doing Enough With What I Have Left?

Giving my current unique circumstances, I am wondering if I’m doing enough. Not enough by way of treatment, this isn’t a cancer thing, but enough by way of am I doing enough with what I have left.

Bouncing Back: Finding Resilience Through Faith

How fast do you bounce back after a loss?One of the great tragedies in modern-day Christians is that we are losing our ability to rebound, to find the grit and determination to come back from defeat.

God Is With You Wherever You Go

We’ve spent last week primarily talking about letting go and trusting God with his plan for us. So, I thought I would send us into the weekend with Joshua 1:9“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherev...

Prayer and Trust Go Hand in Hand

“Good Lord willing …”How many times have we heard this saying as response to questions about our plans we have for our lives? I’ve heard it a lot! I’ve said it! I suppose it’s meant to express our beliefs that we believe and trust that if ______ is God’s will then it will be. But are we praying f...

Believing the Best in Others

I don’t know about you but I’ve got to do better at turning off gossip when I hear it. I also need to not “enable it” when I hear it by giving a participatory laugh or, “now way!” It just makes it worse. It seems as if now days we believe the negative stuff about people more than the positive stu...

Taking Every Thought Captive to Christ

Anytime we are sick, lose a loved one, have a serious injury, etc. negative thoughts and doubt creep into our minds. It challenges our faith.

What is Grace? Understanding God's Greatest Gift

Grace. What is it exactly? I mean I sign off with “Grace wins” everyday, but what exactly am I talking about? Well, in the book of Romans, Paul tells us that we can’t receive God’s favor, become righteous, by works alone. Meaning simply obeying the laws of the land wouldn’t get us His favor. So,...

Finding God's Peace When Your World Is Upside Down

Can we have peace in our hearts when our world is turned upside down?Pretty good question that requires an honest look inward. You see the kind of peace the world give us is pretty sketch at best.

What Are You Waiting For? Step Into God's Plans

What are you waiting for? I’ve been thinking about this simple question for over a week now. You see, last year I was being called to step away from a long career and focus on health, faith, family and friends. While I wasn’t really sure what it was going to look like, I soon realized God had big...
