There's a great deal of evidence that hell can provide to convince us of a deception. The evidence will look and sound convincing on the surface. If we fail to inquire of the Lord to discern the validity and truthfulness of the evidence provided, we will fail to see...
Some of you are walking along a lonesome road of truth. Don’t become discouraged and give up. A great reward is waiting for you. https://www.facebook.com/1442665059/videos/1537077510280182
It can sound extreme to say an entire system of disbelief can collapse in a day, but it's not extreme. The Lord can collapse these systems quickly and in ways that are beyond human imagination. Our best efforts cannot bring about a complete collapse of anything. We...
The greatest protectors are not always the most visible. Special Operations teams work covertly, engaging in dangerous operations to protect a nation. Cops patrol by your home in the night looking to intercept those who might cause you harm. The quiet majority of good...
Many believers are concerned about what is transpiring on earth. Some of that concern can blind us to a greater reality. A fear-based concern will paralyze our faith because it is absent of hope. Fear can cause us to believe and take stock in diversions....
Being of one heart has a greater impact than being of one mind. In a close environment where people work together toward a common goal, hearts that follow after God in love, create a healthy and cohesive work environment. The apostle Paul encouraged us in the...
When I was a cop every once in a while, I would be assigned a ride-along. A ride-along is a civilian who has been cleared to ride with a patrol officer to see what life was like on the streets. Of all the people that rode along with me, each one left that experience...
This morning, I finally got a picture of our puppy’s morning ritual. Each morning, she sticks her head through the doggie door to see if the way is safe before she goes outside. She does this every day. Ladybug is only six months old, but she is teaching us something....
It’s a bit after 2:00 am. A few minutes ago, I woke up and could not go back to sleep. I had a few things on my mind I needed to deal with so, I quietly got up and went into our living room to talk with the Lord. A few minutes after rising, I started my audio bible...
In the noise of the current social clamor, the voice of the Church can become diluted by politics, personal preferences, and undisciplined emotions. In this back and forth defensive environment, we can defend our preferred position to such a degree that we miss the...
The “Don’t” and “Why” of Life I DON’T confess my sins against my wife to clean the relational slate and just move on. I confess my sins to honor her and the Lord. I DON’T work out just to stay in physical and emotional shape. I work out so I can stay in a fight as...
What has culturally transpired over the last few months will reveal that some in positions of authority are no longer suited to lead those they serve into a new and unfolding future. This will not be a personal indictment or an attack on a leader's character. It will...
Perhaps one of the most impactful things that will transpire in this unusual season of history is the realization by the Church and her leaders that we are in a time of reformation. Realizing our calling to influence all 7 spheres/mountains of culture has long been...
You have a God-given right to address any ill of humanity no matter what color your skin, your gender, or your social status. Do not let any person or social movement try to silence your voice through shame. The only requirement is that when you speak, you are...
Today, an angry man sped past Jan and me on our morning walk. It happened at a four-way stop and was a bit too close for comfort. Instead of offering him a vulgar gesture or a word of cursing, we blessed him. Everyday angry, depressed, and fearful people will...
