“And Jesus went throughout all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom and healing every disease and every affliction. When he saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd...
understandingApril 13, 2023
You ever look at someone else and think or say to yourself, “Oh my word, what are they thinking?”. How about “what an idiot!”But here’s the thing; no matter how stupid the actions, political views, etc. seem to us, it makes perfectly good sense to them. When we don’t take time to understand other...
gods-loveApril 11, 2023
Life can throw you curve balls, we all know that. Lately, I’ve had a steady diet of them too. But, you know what, I know they will eventually pass and today is a beautiful new day full of hope!So, as we move forward this week, take time to think about the unfailing love of God. Despite our sinful...
gods-presenceApril 5, 2023
You ever get the feeling sometimes that when we sin, that God has left you? Like the feeling you had when you were a kid and you got in trouble with your parents and they punished you and during that moment you felt like they have left you? I have for sure. But the thing is, that feeling that our...
callingMarch 9, 2023
883/9/23I was reading last night and had an idea that I thought was worth sharing. The thought is that it appears we sometimes treat Christianity as a cause. Like some kind philanthropic club we are a part of that we can’t wait to post on Facebook the latest good deed we did for something or some...
gods-presenceFebruary 22, 2023
You know it easy sometimes to think that God isn’t present when things are going bad for us. The feeling that maybe He isn’t there when we deviate from what we think is His plan for us. Well, it is simply not true. “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father...
sufferingJanuary 2, 2023
Happy New Year! I’m still tired from that Saturday of football games! “And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you.”1 Peter 5:10 I love this verse from Peter. You...
identity-in-christDecember 20, 2022
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. But that’s not necessarily your identity. It’s regarding the world but what about your identity in Christ? Well, you’r...
graceDecember 19, 2022
What would your life look like without Jesus? I don’t know if you think about that, but I think about it often. I cringe at the thought of what my life would be without Jesus. I’m sure my heart would be cold because I felt it headed that way when I met Christ. I’d probably be pretty lonely. I may...
forgivenessDecember 16, 2022
Welp, we made it another week! Let’s take the weekend and think about forgiveness. It’s not that I’m saying we don’t forgive, I just think we can all use a reminder as we part for a couple of day about the one thing that is the essence of who we are...forgiveness. You see, God loves you! And he k...
graceDecember 13, 2022
We’ve been doing this since sometime in 2018. I know I’ve written 1014 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. (God > Me) I’m sure...
gods-graceDecember 12, 2022
I had a couple great conversations this weekend with a few friends and they were asking me about my journey and how I am where I am and how I got here...their questions gave me reason to reflect on God’s grace he’s shown me. “but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Chri...
justificationDecember 8, 2022
I’ve been thinking the last couple of days about the journey we have been on together and some of the topics I chase down a rabbit hole. 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. So, with that being said, I...
christian-livingNovember 28, 2022
What are you doing? I don’t mean what are you doing right now, but what are you doing in your life and how are you dong it?I ask myself this question a lot. I ask it not in relation to my career or anything, I ask myself this as it pertains to what am I doing and how am I doing it?Are our weekend...
forgivenessNovember 16, 2022
Talking forgiveness a little more, I just want to say, forgiveness is not easy. But no matter how many times a person hurts you, you got to forgive them without limit. I know, I get it, but we have to. To forgive doesn’t mean to forget. You don’t have to reconcile with the person that wronged you...
forgivenessNovember 15, 2022
One of my most favorite topics to discuss is forgiveness. If you’ve been in this devotional journey with me for the last four and a half years, you know I like to talk about it. But why you may ask? Well, it’s forgiveness that has given us the hope for an eternal life with our maker and it’s forg...
truthNovember 3, 2022
So I’ve been reading a little and diving into the idea of Truth and Grace as it pertains to us and how we may identify with one or the other. Let me explain. “And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and trut...
forgivenessOctober 11, 2022
In keeping with forgiveness, nobody ever suggested forgiving would be easy. I certainly didn’t and I’m not saying it is, because it’s not. But God challenges us by giving us the ability to forgive. But at the same time, it is one of the hardest things He asks us to do. But you can learn to forgiv...
forgivenessOctober 10, 2022
You ever heard someone say, “that person’s hurt me so many times there’s no way I could ever forgive them”? I have...I may have thought it a time or two as well. Maybe you have? “Pay attention to yourselves! If your brother sins, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him, and if he sins against...
forgivenessOctober 7, 2022
As we ease into the weekend, I want to talk about something that caused me some restlessness last night. Forgiveness. You see, I had something come up yesterday where somebody has decided to not take responsibility for something they did to me. A random person, whom I don’t know, has decided not...
callingOctober 4, 2022
Ever felt like sometimes you’re a “Yes Man”? Man I sure use to be, that’s for sure. For much of my life I was a bit directionless. If someone asked me to do something and if it even kind of felt like a good idea, I would do it. I spread myself pretty thin. Because I could turn my hand to a number...
responsibilityAugust 20, 2022
You ever feel like you have such a huge load or responsibility you find yourself ducking them or delegating them to someone else? I certainly do. But getting someone else to do them doesn’t change the fact you’re responsible for them. But when you take up the responsibility that’s in front of you...
gossipAugust 17, 2022
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...
humilityAugust 12, 2022
How humble do you think you are? Are you prideful and boastful? I ask because God is close to the humble and broken hearted. No one is perfect. We all have sinned. But what makes us beloved to God is our willingness to accept our sinful condition and return to Him. You see, David was a man after...
