A Decision Not to Choose is Still a Choice

Some #FoodforThought for the day. Whether we acknowledge the existence of God or not, that acknowledgement or lack thereof doesn’t remove us from the perils of hell and eternal damnation. Gasp! I know… harsh words. Folks don’t like to hear words like hell and damnation bandied about, especially if they are pointed at them. But […]

Yes, I Believe in God. Do You?

I’ve been reading Romans this week during my Bible study time, and it’s filled with much wisdom and many of God’s promises that give me hope and comfort. However, it’s also filled with truths, and some of them can be hard truths to swallow, especially in our current culture. There are so many who rebel against God, […]

Learning to Pray is Learning to Say- “God I Need You”

I have three boys. Their ages are 13 (almost 14), 9 (almost 10) and 3. Obviously they are each at very different stages of their lives. Every day it feels like new challenges arise, new fruitless (and sinful) worries are stirred up, and new ideas & solutions are needed to resolve them. The pull of […]

Christ-follower or Christian… Does It Really Matter?

I’ve been surfing the web today, pondering on what it means to be a Christian vs Christ-follower. I used to call myself Christian based entirely on the fact that it was just what I was raised to call myself. When I began my walk with God in more recent years, learning about Him and creating […]

The Epic Power of Prayer

I am a big believer in the power of prayer, confessing God’s Word out loud and coming into agreement with Him, and knowing or expecting He will deliver on His promises. That said, this video an old schoolmate recently published drove that point home. But he did it in a new, inspiring, yet ultimately familiar […]

Are You Courageous?

I wanted to share it because it’s like a call to spiritual arms for fathers everywhere and so inspiring. I got goosebumps the first time I ever watched it! It’s my prayer that if you land on this page and are reading this, you continue to read and watch the video below and that it […]

Be Kind and Be Generous… Even to the Douche Bags of the Planet

Fair Warning– The below post does contain a “bad” word or two. I did mention I’m a work in progress. And sometimes a “bad” word just feels more appropriate. And really… if it’s contained within the Bible, is it really a bad word? I’ve yet to answer that question for myself definitively, you?  Living in […]

What’s This Whole “Serve Others” Thang Anyway?

I know… Why the heck do I want to serve others right? I’d rather be served! That’s kind of the mentality most folks find themselves stuck in and our society doesn’t seem to help much. Opportunities for self-gratification abound and the primary goal of most marketing is to try and sweet talk you into giving […]
