Tired & Ready
Dad, can I be honest and tell you that I am struggling to feel your presence this morning? I have read my Bible. I have prayed. I have watched podcasts. I have sought and listened to Billy Graham vids. I just feel empty. “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will…

Landmines or Land Mining
Wikipedia defines land mines as “A land mine, or landmine, is an explosive weapon often concealed under or camouflaged on the ground, and designed to destroy or disable enemy targets.” I believe this is how Satan defines those of us who are sold out to Jesus Christ. We are, or certainly should be, Satan’s greatest…

The Bible Tells Me So!
If a train was barreling toward your car while it was stuck on train tracks, would you want me to pull you from the stuck car or helplessly try and push your car off the tracks? If your house was burning with flames breaking through the windows and roof, would you have me save you…

What if You Choose to Live a Regret-Free Life?
My first book officially releases today and is available online wherever books are sold. I would be honored and grateful if you would consider buying a copy. The response has been truly humbling from those who have received advanced copies. “Rejecting regret by accepting who God says that you are is a key step in…

You Don’t Have to Fight Every Battle
Borrowed: THE ONLY BIRD THAT DARES TO ATTACK AN EAGLE IS A CROW, BUT THE EAGLE NEVER FIGHTS BACK. HERE IS WHY: “But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint.” Isiah 40:31 (NLT)

Cornbread, Cast Iron & Milk
Did you ever watch that cornmeal and buttermilk get mixed together while the 10” to 12” cast iron skillet was heating up ahead of the combining those ingredients into the marvelous and God-delivered concoction called cornbread? Man as a little boy I remember hearing my mother retrieving her very seasoned 10” cast iron skillet from…
