When God Seems Far Off

When God Seems Far Off

It is easy to praise the Lord’s sovereignty in the peaks and mountain tops. Yet as many know, the Christian life is often not spent in the grassy hilltops, but rather in the trenches, where it is cold, dirty and lonely.

Aphid Pimples And The Providence Of God

Many have said, “if God is all-powerful, He cannot be all-good. If He is all-good, then He cannot be all-powerful.” This is the danger of forgetting the Gospel.

For The Sake Of One

For The Sake Of One

Here’s a thought for you. I don’t think we Christians are wired to handle fame. I don't think we are wired in a way that gives us the ability to deal with stardom in a beneficial way. I think there is a very special and Biblical reason for this.

Make War (Part 3)

Make War (Part 3)

Please Stop Calling Me A Legalist (Part 1)

Please Stop Calling Me A Legalist (Part 1)

I have been called a legalist many times in my life. What I have always hoped for is a person who, instead of simply labeling me and moving on, asked me about the convictions I have. If we did this more, I believe it would solve a lot of problems.

Resurrection Living

Resurrection Living

The resurrection is the most important aspect of the Gospel. Without it, we are lost. Because of it, we have every reason to rejoice. We should not simply celebrate this one day out of the year. The resurrection should be at the very core of who we are.

Why A Good Friday?

Why A Good Friday?

What is it that makes Good Friday so good? It doesn’t feel good. It’s the day God Himself was murdered. How can there be light in such darkness? Simply because of this...Easter is coming.
