Strengthen Your Faith: Science Confirms the Bible
Today, Christians are faced with challenges from unbelievers which causes many to doubt their faith. Can the Bible be trusted? Are the sections of Scripture written as history meant to be viewed with suspicion until verified by modern science? Jesus talks about the...
God’s Valuation of Women
God’s original design of women was good, but Genesis 3 tells us that the fall mars all of creation. In God’s kindness, He still uses both men and women to accomplish His good purposes. Throughout Scripture, including the Old Testament, we see the importance and value...
Navigating Envy in Relationships
To know that envy disrupts the peace, contentment, and joy that God would otherwise grant to our internal life is bad enough, but even worse is the fact that if envy is not detected, dug up, and thrown out it will inevitably inflict some serious relational damage on...
Enduring Hope: A Pastor’s Guide – Christian Hope
God is not a hustler. And the hope he calls us to cannot be built on naive expectations that people will start seeing things the way we do. Our longing cannot be built on the arrogant assumption that we are completely right in the positions we take. It cannot even be...
Conquering Anxiety: Embracing God’s Love
I’ve come to believe in a better equation to describe what anxiety does: anxiety equals care minus God. We use the word care for both anxiety and love. We speak of not having a care in the world: that’s about anxiety. We tell someone we care for them: that’s love. The...
Trusting the Bible: Navigating Doubts on God’s Word
Who told you that the Bible is God’s Word? Do you trust this person with your life? The person who asserted this claim probably has some credibility with you, if not some influence and perhaps even authority. This person is asking you to base your entire life on this...

When God gave the command to parents and the community to teach children, the core of that was to teach them to “Love the Lord your God” (Deuteronomy 6:4-9). Rather than attempting to introduce every story of Scripture, we would do well to prepare children for meat by...
Restoring Order After Loss
The night Reggie died, my family came over to sit vigil, but as the night wore on, they departed one by one to their own homes until only one of my family members and I remained. At first my family member was quiet, but eventually she opened up, pausing after each...
Shining Light Amid Darkness: Living the Radiant Christian Life
Not too long ago, I was driving my boys to school on the most beautiful fall day. Leaves were starting to turn, I had a pumpkin flavored coffee in my hand, I had just finished a fulfilling workout, and my boys were happily chatting in the backseat. I had nothing but...
Skate to the Future: Leading with Prototypes
“Skate to where the puck is going,” Wayne Gretzky’s father taught him. That is, don’t skate to where the puck is, but to where the puck is going to be. Anticipate the direction and speed of the puck and get there first. Jump ahead of the competition by learning to see...
Why Visit the Holy Land?
Why Visit Israel? Does a visit to the Holy Land benefit pastor and congregation? Taking our Western eyes to the East is eye-opening. Comparing...
How to Build a Blazing Bonfire of Hope in a Dizzyingly Dark World
There’s nothing quite as disorienting and terrifying as getting lost in the mountains at night. I speak from personal experience. My buddy Donnie...
Christ-Centered Bible Study
When we think about understanding a passage of Scripture, we can picture an arrow aimed at the bull’s-eye heart of the passage: the purpose and...
