It’s Never Too Early, But It Might Be Too Late

I was downstairs watching TV when my watch started buzzing. I looked down and saw that I was getting a phone call. My phone was upstairs charging, so I rushed up the stairs just in time to answer the phone. It was my sister. She told me that my father was in the ER andContinue reading “It’s Never Too Early, But It Might Be Too Late”

Please Read

Hello, We don’t speak much, or perhaps never at all. Life takes us on different paths and journeys, but I want you to know that you are in my heart and mind. I have reached a point in my life of reflection and introspection. There is so much I want to share with you, butContinue reading “Please Read”

The Scariest Words

When I was seven, I “gave my life” to Jesus. Honestly, I never really understood what that meant. All I knew was I didn’t want to go to the place with fire and brimstone. I was told that if I said the sinner’s prayer and accepted Jesus in my heart, I would be saved. ItContinue reading “The Scariest Words”

Hear, Listen, and Do

“Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit atContinue reading “Hear, Listen, and Do”

God-Controlled

Lately, I have been pondering the idea of self-control. It is something we hear often. Growing up, our parents taught us to practice self-control. As we get older, we are told to focus on having self-control. The older I get, the more I have realized that self-control is easier said than done, and I haveContinue reading “God-Controlled”

The Hard Truth

C.S. Lewis gave us one of the best descriptions of God in his book, The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe. When the children enter the world of Narnia, they are told of the great Aslan. Upon his description, Susan states, “Well, he doesn’t sound very safe” (My paraphrase ). Mr. Beaver replies, “Safe? WhoContinue reading “The Hard Truth”

The Bride

I was driving up Highway 55 with my wife to McCall, Idaho. We were listening to a message by John Bevere titled “The Knock-off Jesus.” Even though his message focused on believing in the Jesus of the Bible and not the Jesus of society, he talked about the relationship between Christ and His followers. HeContinue reading “The Bride”

It Starts With Us!

You know what I miss? I miss kindness and respect. I miss people genuinely caring about each other. I miss solidarity and unity in our society. I miss when people could think and believe different things but still show love and compassion for each other. I miss a world where opinions didn’t determine how weContinue reading “It Starts With Us!”

If God Is Real, Then Why…?

I watched a video the other day where someone was arguing with an atheist. The atheist stated, “If God is all loving and good, then why is there so much suffering and evil in the world?”. This is an argument to prove that there is no God because of all the tragedy in the world.Continue reading “If God Is Real, Then Why…?”

Shut Up and Listen

Being a husband is challenging. Living with another human who thinks, acts, and responds differently than you is difficult. Women are complicated creatures, and nearly every man would agree with that statement. However, no matter how complex they are, we must protect and cherish them at all costs. “‭‭Husbands, love your wives, just as ChristContinue reading “Shut Up and Listen”
