Hey, I’ve been sitting with this question for a while. As a pastor, I have been asked many times. The kind of question that sticks to your soul and won’t let go. One of those aching, messy, gut-level cries we whisper into our pillow late at night: “...

Okay, friend. Let’s get real for a second. I remember sitting in my office back in 2004, surrounded by scribbled notes, marked up highlighter Bibles, and a heart that had just started to grasp something I could barely put into words, God’s love. I e...

Can I tell you something that used to keep me up at night? There was a time in my life, maybe you’ve been there too, when I genuinely wondered if I could lose my salvation. Like, what if I messed up too badly? What if I said something dumb or got ti...

I’ll be honest with you, writing about gratitude hasn’t always come easy to me. Not because I don’t believe in it, but because I didn’t want to paint a picture that felt fake. Life hasn’t always been smooth, and I didn’t want to pretend that it had...

Hey friend, can I just be honest for a second? There was a time, not so long ago, when prayer felt complicated to me. I know, I know… as someone who’s pastored and walked this faith journey for years, I’m “supposed” to have it all figured out, right...

Understanding God’s will isn’t about unlocking some hidden mystery or waiting for a neon sign to light your path. It’s about relationship, learning to trust His voice, His timing, and His heart for you. Many people wrestle with questions like, Am I ...

You don’t have to be a prophet to see that the world is in chaos. The headlines scream of war, destruction, and corruption. Natural disasters are more frequent and devastating. Pandemics leave scars that go beyond just physical illness. Lies and dec...

Hey, can I tell you something that totally wrecked me (in the best way)? I was sitting with my Bible one morning, half-asleep, coffee in hand, and I came across Paul’s words, “Do you not know that you are God’s temple and that His Spirit dwells in y...

Have you stood next to the ocean while observing the waves hit the beach? The tide moves constantly as it shifts between gentle and fierce states. Isn’t life similar to the ceaseless movement of ocean waves? You can go from peace to c...

Freedom. It’s the word of the hour. You hear it everywhere, on the news, in protests, in conversations about identity and rights. It’s plastered across banners, shouted from podiums, and woven into nearly every cultural movement. Freedom to be who I...

I still remember the eerie sound of rattling chains from an old Christmas movie I watched as a child. A Christmas Carol. There was something haunting about that scene where Jacob Marley, weighed down by the chains of his past, dragged them through th...

One of the most common questions I heard during my years as a pastor was, “How do I hear the voice of God?”At first, I thought it was mostly new believers looking for guidance. But to my surprise, seasoned believers, people who had been walking with ...

One of the greatest revelations I ever received about my Father God was understanding my identity in Christ. But let me be honest, it didn’t happen overnight. It took years of studying, questioning, and wrestling with Scripture before the truth final...

It doesn’t take a genius to see that the world feels like it’s been flipped upside down. Confusion is everywhere. Morality has become a shifting tide, and people seem more lost than ever. What was once called good is now seen as offensive, and what w...

One of the saddest things I’ve witnessed as a pastor is how many believers in Christ don’t truly know who God is. They serve Him out of fear, follow rituals out of obligation, and view Him through the distorted lens of religion. They might know about...
