Recently, I have noticed people are discarding portions of Scripture telling us certain texts do not apply to us or that the text does not reveal the heart of God. It is a consequential choice to make. Discarding God's word is nothing new. It has happened before in...
In the last four years, many things have happened bringing to the surface feelings and positions that reveal a divided Church. A global medical challenge, another contentious election, opinions regarding human sexuality, and other issues have revealed that we are not...
Death, disease, divorce, or any major life change are all the same in many ways. They create a set of ruins where something that was once alive, and flourishing is no longer present. It is upon those ruins that the Lord will rebuild something new. The Lord revealed...
God’s mercy is non-partisan. It is not prejudiced, nor does it belong to a single faith-affiliation or live only in one stream of revival or reformation thinking. Mercy knows no boundary, restriction or human limitation because it reflects the height, depth, and...
I just watched a powerful video from Lance Wallnau. In the video, Lance shared a piece of history from the family line of Kim Jong Un, the current leader of North Korea. Kim Jong Un’s great-great-grandparents were Christians. A Wikipedia reference says of Kim...
An open door is not a destination. You need to keep moving once you enter a new place because that new place is only one point on the map of your life-journey. It was never intended to be your final destination. The same faith that allowed you to see the first open...
I walked by the walnut tree in our backyard and noticed this little limb with leaves growing out from the base of the tree trunk. This is not the normal place for new growth. New growth happens up in the branches and limbs. As I looked at the miniature limb, the Lord...

When I stand under a warm summer midnight sky and look into the heavens and see the stars, I wonder. When I wake up from a dream, I wonder. When I view photographic images from the Hubble telescope of a distant galaxy, I wonder. When I see a newborn baby that just...
I was about 8 years old when an older kid who was 9 began to push and shove my little brother who was only 6. My brother had a look of fear on his face as the bully began his attack. I didn’t like what was taking place so I stepped between the bully and my brother and...
Protecting a place of personal brokenness at the expense of healing exposure will put the things you fear losing in a place of even greater jeopardy. Honorable people are able to handle your disclosure more than your fear would lead you to believe. Look for these...
God is adjusting our frame of reference for the release of increased levels of impact for prophetic ministry. Like a frame that surrounds and enhances a piece of historic artwork, the Lord has always desired to have us frame His revealed word with the unique wisdom...
People are leaving certain expressions of the Church. Depending on how you see this exit, it can create concern or expectation. On the different summits of culture where God is doing His work of reformation are embedded some of those who had previously...
In the last month, some of my friends have experienced the suddenness of life and death. One friend was on a flight with his wife when a woman sitting behind them died. They had to finish the long flight knowing the dead woman’s body would accompany them to their...
