Revival seems to be sweeping our country! I have seen and heard of so many salvations lately! 🙌🏻 Jesus came for the messed up sinner. I am one of them. Yes, we love that He ran after the prodigal, ate with the tax collectors, and stepped in to prevent the stoning of the woman caughtContinue reading “If Jesus is Lord…He is to be Lord of all.”

Hold on. It’s worth it.
Surely, I’m not the only one who used to believe that once you become a Christian life will go easy. But the truth is, real faith is far from easy. The book of Luke tells us, Simeon’s eyes finally beheld the Promised One. Then Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary His mother, “Behold, thisContinue reading “Hold on. It’s worth it.”
Don’t have faith on your own faith.
Don’t have faith in your own faith. Keep looking to God. The enemy would love for you to believe you are the only one whose faith has faltered. But this is not biblical. Throughout Scripture, God allows us to peak into the lives of some of the most faithful when they were the least faithful.Continue reading “Don’t have faith on your own faith.”
Faith over Feelings
We can’t let our feelings dictate our obedience. If you want to walk in faith you have to remember this. So many seem to want to only follow the Lord as long as their feelings don’t get in the way. But that isn’t faith. They place incredible emphasis on what feels right to them andContinue reading “Faith over Feelings”
This ordinary day…
I am convinced it’s not the dramatic stories, trials and testimonies where our Lord most often chooses to show Himself through us but in the common, every day living. So often, we miss holy opportunities waiting for the big event, the mission trip, or the planned church program. But so often holy moments, with eternalContinue reading “This ordinary day…”
Judging or Discerning Fruit?
You should care about others enough to talk with them about their sin, and when you do, they may accuse you of judging them. But, you can’t be neutral in your faith. If it impacts you, you should want it to impact those you care about. John Piper went so far as to say, “IfContinue reading “Judging or Discerning Fruit?”
Will we hang on when it gets hard?
It’s easy to say “yes” to Heaven, but are we ready to face the affliction that might come because we follow Christ? Are we ready for that? Will our kids be? Paul and Silas had been beaten and jailed in Philippi because of the gospel. Their joy, as they sat in prison singing hymns, hadContinue reading “Will we hang on when it gets hard?”
Not control. Peace.
The events of late, remind us all of how little any of us can control. Our next heartbeat.No.Our next breath.Certainly not. But the thing is, we were made to rest, and even delight, in something we certainly can’t control—God. We were made to know God. To live is not control,to live is Christ. As A.W.Continue reading “Not control. Peace.”
Speak Truth. Refute the Perpetrators of Lies.
We need to know and stand for biblical truth. We need to find the courage and wisdom to refute the lies of the evil one. The Bible tells us God hates lying lips (Prov 12:22). When a lie is treated as truth there is always destruction. This is why perpetrators of lies must be refutedContinue reading “Speak Truth. Refute the Perpetrators of Lies.”
Why you might be frustrated with YOUR Christianity.
The truth is you may be frustrated with Christianity if you have invited Jesus into YOUR life. You know like, “come be a part”. Perhaps, even like the demons, you recognize Jesus as the Son of God (Matt 16:16), and you reason you could use a little Jesus in YOUR life. You’ll pick and chooseContinue reading “Why you might be frustrated with YOUR Christianity.”
Speak the truth, if you love others.
Let’s be careful to walk in truth, as defined by the Bible. Let’s understand there is no “my truth” and “your truth.” Let’s be bold enough to say this because we trust God more than we trust ourselves. Let’s understand the danger of the popular phrase -“I’m so happy you found your truth”. These wordsContinue reading “Speak the truth, if you love others.”
From my son-in-law…
Powerful, insightful words from my son-in-law, Forest McCollough— The murder of Charlie Kirk hit me in a way nothing else ever has, and I think other people are feeling the same thing. I have heard people say that he is a martyr – and I completely agree with that. A martyr is someone who isContinue reading “From my son-in-law…”
The strange PEACE OF Erika Kirk
What those, who do not fear the Lord, or perhaps have only dabbled in a secular religion, do not understand, is that to fear God, more than anything else, conquers all other fears and gives a peace that makes no earthly sense. It is not that we aren’t intelligent, as those who look on likeContinue reading “The strange PEACE OF Erika Kirk”
Put on your armor and keep standing.
My daughter, Abi, wrote this a few years back. This truth is a powerful, keep-you-going reminder— I felt alone. Sad, disheartened, fighting back tears-very much like an alien and stranger though surrounded by others my age as I sat in my Contemporary Moral Issues Philosophy class, at the University of Tennessee, listening to my classmatesContinue reading “Put on your armor and keep standing.”
It is time
The tide has shifted and what the Bible has told us would happen, has happened, and is happening, and here in this country as well. Wrong is called “right” and what’s right is called “wrong”, and people are celebrating the death of someone who sought to talk about biblical truth. Things are happening just asContinue reading “It is time”
Keep Telling The Truth!
God hates lies (Prov 12:22). The devil is the father of all lies (John 8:44). He often uses lies in order to fulfill his goal to rob, kill, and destroy (John 10:10). I’ve seen this play out this year as lies have impacted our family, our church, and our nation. I understand more than everContinue reading “Keep Telling The Truth!”
Find Your Voice
Vice President Vance said that after talking with Erika Kirk about the way Charlie treated her, he felt convicted to be a better husband. Vance, his wife, his kids, and likely our country will be better off if he follows through. This is truth, and truth that comes from forsaking our flesh-filled, emotional ways (sin)Continue reading “Find Your Voice”
Truth has not died! Nor will it!
Charlie Kirk was martyred for speaking biblical truth. The gunmen hoped to kill the truth, but this truth is alive and active- sharper than any two-edged sword. (Heb 4:12). And we, who know this, must not be afraid to continue to wield biblical truth that sets captives free even in the darkest moments. The truthContinue reading “Truth has not died! Nor will it!”
Truth more important than ever!
“These things I have written to you concerning those who try to deceive you.” (1 John 2:26) There are great efforts, by spiritual forces in high places, to deceive us and those we love (Eph 6:12). Not only that, the Bible tells they want to kill and destroy us (John 10:10). We have seen thisContinue reading “Truth more important than ever!”
Here I Am
Like many of you, our family is incredibly upset over the assassination of Charlie Kirk. My kids are especially upset. Charlie was of their generation, but my 80 year old mom also listened to his podcasts all the time. Charlie was a bright light. He loved Jesus and he loved people. He knew the BibleContinue reading “Here I Am”
