Using Your Gifts as Your Mission Field
As many of you know, I’ve been racing motocross for quite some time. While there certainly isn’t any financial gain to the sport, rather extreme risk, I am certain that God has blessed me with this opportunity for His good as well as mine. Just like David says in Psalm 138, I know the Lord has a...

Your True Identity: Adopted Son, Forever Daughter
Welcome to November!Ask yourself this, what is your identity? People mostly answer that question with a title. I’m a mom. I’m a dad. A golfer, racer, vegan, cross fitter, husband or wife...whatever.

Getting Off the Wrong Ride: The Power of Repentance
So I got to thinking about how life seems to ebb and flow with good times and bad. More specifically, as I was driving back from treatment, I got to thinking about how we can get stuck in the bad. I’m talking about that “stop the world I just want to get off this ride” feeling. We’ve all had it,...

God's No Is Always For Your Good
When we talk about our struggles and how we are just trying to get through “it” aren’t we really just talking about how we are to deal with God’s NO? I mean think about most of the disappointments you’ve experienced. Probably the one thing they all had in common is they didn’t fit into your plan...

God's Way Through Suffering
You ever notice that when we finally get out of whatever it is we are suffering from it never seems to be the way we thought we would get out of it? Like during our suffering we could never understand or see the way out that God has for us. It’s because it’s His plan for us not our plan for us. H...

To Live is Christ: Our True Purpose and Eternal Hope
“For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.”Philippians 1:21 Are you living “in Christ”? What I mean is that are you living for the pleasure and joys of the flesh that this world offers or are you living as a servant of Christ. What do we really have to loose as Christians? Nothing in this...

Planting Seeds of Faith Without Seeing the Harvest
So will we always see the result of the work we’ve done by witnessing to others and being there when they need us the most? Most certainly not. But that shouldn’t discourage us from being there and sharing the Gospel. You see, we never really know how God is using us, we just need to have faith t...

Running the Race That Matters Most
Sport, like life, has winners and losers. It’s always has and it always will. Despite the wishes of a seemingly blind new culture that wants to teach us “fairness” and insulate of from pain and failure, you will lose and things won’t always go your way. But that’s ok. You see, when we walk with C...

You Have a Gift to Share

When Life Gets Hard: Understanding God's Plan
I see a lot of post and stories in the media (that which I allow myself to see) and people seem, generally speaking, so mad and angry. Many times I see them questioning God or if there even is one!

Hey, you ever get that feeling like there is something more? That you are chasing something in life that won’t fully satisfy you? I have. Pay close attention to that feeling though, it’s from God. We see people everyday who seem to be “put together”. People that have a lot of seat time in church...
