Anatomy of a Blessing
And they were bringing children to him that he might touch them, and the disciples rebuked them. But when Jesus saw it, he was indignant and said to them, “Let the children come to me; do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God. Truly, I say to you, whoever does not […]
When a Dream Dies
But the Lord said to David my father, “Whereas it was in your heart to build a house for my name, you did well that it was in your heart. Nevertheless, you shall not build the house, but your son who shall be born to you shall build the house for my name” (1 Kings […]
Are You Abiding?
So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed in him, “If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples” (John 8:31, esv). You probably can’t remember the last time you used the word abide in a conversation. Most of us don’t tell our kids, “If you abide in my house, you live […]
One Prayer at a Time
Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed fervently that it would not rain, and for three years and six months it did not rain on the earth. Then he prayed again, and heaven gave rain, and the earth bore its fruit (James 5:17–18, esv). The greatest complaint I hear about […]
How God Uses Bad for Good

That was the reaction of the religious when seeing Jesus interacting with the common rabble […]
Finally, the Beginning of the End*
*Video will post by end of week. Frustrated by the delay? Me too. But upon advice of counsel I need to wait a little bit longer. I have a ton of crazy but true details that reveal what really happened at Harvest Bible Chapel. Like this excerpt from the sworn testimony of Chris Nudo. Saved at […]
The Way of Wisdom
Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is (Ephesians 5:17, esv). Can God’s Word get your attention? The verse above should have you reaching for your Bible. Ephesians 5:17 is basically saying, “Hey! Pay attention and don’t be foolish! Understand the Lord’s will.” We can be sure of this: […]
The Soldier Principle
Share in suffering as a good soldier of Christ Jesus. No soldier gets entangled in civilian pursuits, since his aim is to please the one who enlisted him. An athlete is not crowned unless he competes according to the rules. It is the hard-working farmer who ought to have the first share of the crops. Think […]
