What is your view of God? It may seem a rather simplistic question, but it is likely one you’ve never been asked or urged to think about. Your answer is important.

Embrace the Tension

September 27, 2011

I find there to be a consistent tension in my walk with Christ…a tension between what He’s done and what I’m supposed to be doing. And this tension, I’m learning, is a good thing. If you’re like me you’re not a big fan of change. Most of us aren’t. But following Christ necessitates movement and [...]

September 20, 2011

Solitude is Not an Option

Solitude is a great thing in its proper place. As a follower of Christ, the importance of spending time alone with God, in His Word and in prayer, cannot be overstated. It’s a must. And most of us would agree that we need to do more of it. But there’s also a great need in [...]

A New Season

August 1, 2011

Any new season in life is usually filled with much optimism. Sure, there are likely a few nervous anxieties associated as well, but we’re far better off focusing our energy on the positive things ahead. I had lunch today with a group of friends who’d all gathered to celebrate a new season in the lives [...]

What Motivates You?

July 21, 2011

Much is written, discussed, and debated about the subject and sources of motivation. On a daily basis it seems the search for the “secret sauce” of success is the single most important pursuit for many. I was recently reminded of one of the more common questions relative to the source of motivation for many people… [...]
