We all fail, make mistakes and are in need of grace and second chances. The beautiful thing about the story of Jesus is that his grace was sufficient for ALL people, the whole world, anyone who calls upon his name. There is no such thing in life as extending “too much” grace, yet I find…
Prosperity? Tattoos? Alcohol? What does the Bible say about these things, and why are so many Christians arguing over the interpretation? 1. Plans For Good “For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.”—Jeremiah 29:11 While I…
The concept of love transcends time, culture and geographical location. Love can calm the greatest storms in life, bring joy to those in mourning, and not to mention cover a multitude of sins (1 Peter 4:8). I believe love is oxygen for the soul. This concept is something that I’ve been processing for awhile now, so…
Biblical submission is a highly controversial topic in today’s society and I believe the definition has been twisted and molded into something it was never meant to become.

Failure is inevitable, but how we respond…

You’ve yet to let go and find peace amidst the storm of remembrance. You’re hurting. You’re frustrated. You’re in repetitious, unwavering pain. You ask yourself, “Does God even care?” God does…
Spiritual dehydration can creep into our lives in many ways, but learning to combat this infection can be the difference between a healthy soul and a broken one. 1. Do away with comparison. Don’t compare your inch to someone else’s mile. Everyone is on their own spiritual journey, and the reality is that none of…
God, too big for us to completely understand but personal enough to have a relationship with. That’s part of the beauty of knowing him. The nation, the earth, the universe itself. All of these things are just a small facet of God’s divine dominion. And while we spend our lives on this tiny ball of…
