It seems that whenever trouble comes, God is the first to be blamed… Why? Why is it that the very One to be there for us gets accused if something goes wrong? “Well, He shouldn’t let it happen.” Poor excuse. It’s angering that people find satan so intriguing, and then turn around and make GodContinue reading “Father”

The Watchmen
A Watchman is defined as “one who looks out”, “one who spies, or “one who watches” according to Webster’s Dictionary. Another appropriate interpretation would be someone who is a prophet. “On your walls, O Jerusalem, I have appointed and stationed watchmen (prophets), who will never keep silent day or night; you who profess the LordContinue reading “The Watchmen”
Ash Wednesday
This morning I attended my second ever Ash Wednesday service. As I sat under the teaching of a dear friend, he beckoned us to take today and this lent season to shift our gaze to death, to ashes, to longing. For in this reflection, we recognize our desperate need of life, of growth, of fulfillment.Continue reading “Ash Wednesday”
What are You Doing Today?
Question, what would happen if you died today?? You never know do you. What if Jesus came back today, would you be ready? Or would you feel like there is more you need to do? Some of us have what’s called a bucket list. Things we would like to do before we die. Skiing, skydiving,Continue reading “What are You Doing Today?”
Peace
One of the most famous verses in all of scripture regarding peace and worry is Philippians 4:6. We hear it again and again. Be anxious for nothing. Be anxious for nothing. Be anxious for nothing. I want to pause for a moment and encourage you. This isn’t going to be an article on how toContinue reading “Peace”
Lift Your Banners High!
Lift your banners high! Blow the trumpets! Holy nations sanctified will be our battle cry!! I encourage you to listen to the Casting Crowns song, “Until the Whole World Hears”. Pay attention to the lyrics! The revelation of repentance to a lukewarm lethargic (slow to move or act) generation is about to begin. It’s timeContinue reading “Lift Your Banners High!”
TRUTH
TRUTH. Such a broad yet narrow word. The world we live in defines truth in ways which do not even make sense. The pure truth is slandered and demonized. The truth which they want everyone to believe is placed on a soapbox of lies and empty meaning. Truth is placed in the dark shadows. AnyoneContinue reading “TRUTH”
A Lesson From Ezra
“Then all the people shouted with a great shout, when they praised the Lord, because the house of the Lord was laid. But many of the priests and Levites and heads of the fathers’ houses, old men who had seen the first temple, wept with a loud voice when the foundation of this temple wasContinue reading “A Lesson From Ezra”
United
United we stand divided we fall! This goes back to the very principles of what this country was founded on. The church today is too divided. Instead of working together as the body of Christ should, we are arguing and stuck on interpretations of the scripture. What matters the MOST is we stand on ONEContinue reading “United”
You are Free
Perhaps it’s because I never looked closely enough. Perhaps it’s because I watched the Prince of Egypt too many times growing up. Regardless of the reasoning, I’ve always imagined the Hebrew people crossing the Red Sea in slave clothes. But that’s not at all what happened. Before any miracles. Before any plagues. Before the greatContinue reading “You are Free”
