  • Spiritual Desert, A Refining Fire

    How are Christians to handle seasons when life seems like a pressure-cooker? To carry the devotional’s theme from yesterday, it’s in large part how we view God’s sovereignty. When a blacksmith or goldsmith refines any precious metal, he puts it under intense pressure and fire. When the craftsman’s work in this long process is complete,…

  • …Therefore…

    Colossians 3:5, 1 Peter 5:6, Hebrews 7:25, 2 Corinthians 5:17 and numerous other verses in The Bible contain one of my favorite words in Scripture: Therefore. Don’t gloss over this vastly profound word the next time you read your Bible. Stop and ponder the indicatives preceding the word “Therefore”. The indicatives inform what comes after…

  • God’s Sovereignty, Our Refuge

    Every believer has seasons of dryness in their walk with Christ now and again. But what if you are doing all the “right things” – yet you know you are not living the (spiritually) abundant life God promises to His children? “Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted… The Lord…

  • Many Christians are familiar with this verse in psalms 42: “As the deer pants for the water brooks, so pants my soul for You, O God…” (v.1). But how that Psalm ends is not often talked about. Verse 11 says “Why are you cast down, O my soul, and why are you in turmoil within…

Or maybe your despair isn’t about anything you’re struggling with internally, but rather, unmet expectations or a season of waiting that is taking much longer than you feel you can bear. 1 Corinthians 10:13 says: “No temptation has overtaken you…

  • How are you doing — really? For the sake of social courtesy we usually answer “fine” or “good” or even “tired, but otherwise I’m good”. Let’s take an inventory. Do you have trouble sleeping because your mind is so preoccupied with your task list, the bills, or the next goal you’re trying to accomplish? Are…

  • Statement of Faith

    As I think of more things to add about my core beliefs, this page will be updated. Above all, I am a follower of Jesus Christ and a student of His Living Word, The Holy Bible. I do associate myself with Orthodox Reformed Theology; its lineage can be traced back to the likes of Martin…

  • I recently watched the movie produced by Grace Community Church titled “The Essential Church”. It is a two hour documentary presenting facts of the events that took place in 2020 when Grace Community Church was forced to close its doors. It was an incredibly well-done film that I highly recommend you either watch at your…
