Live for the glory of God
How we respond when we go through hard times is very important; just as is our attitude when we are fighting a spiritual battle, and that battle grows long and weary. It’s tempting to allow self-pity to creep in. To default back to our old thought patterns of, “This is the way it always goes for […]
Have you ever noticed that we don’t naturally live thankfully? Sure, there are the “glass-half-full” people who tend to be more sanguine, and therefore think more positively. But that’s not what I’m talking about. I’m talking about the fact that we don’t naturally live in a way where we are continually aware of the little […]
How often do you worship? I don’t mean putting on your favorite Worship CD or singing along to K-Love. I mean taking the time to dig down deep in your heart to echo words that resonate with you about who God is to you. I mean in your heart elevating God above everything else. Worship […]

What is worship, really? Yes, I know that it’s the part of the service when we sing worship songs. But is that all worship is? Is worship just the singing part? Is worship just a style of song or singing? These are questions I asked myself about 15 years ago when I began to sense […]
“Hi, my name is Judah.” Five simple words from the attorney representing the opposing side as my husband and I stood in front of the courtroom doors. My husband and I exchanged glances, in awe of what we just heard when the attorney stretched out his hand to introduce himself. It was a God wink moment […]
The videos probably pop up in your Facebook timeline every now and then. You know the ones I’m talking about. Making fun of how people raise their hands in church. Cracking jokes at the simple worship songs of the 80s. Poking fun at how repetitive worship songs are today. Christians are easy targets it seems, […]
There was a call to worship, then we sang about how we wanted to worship God, we sang songs about God in the 3rd person how we’d raise our hands how we’d raise our voices what we feel about Him what heaven would be like and even what God feels about us but we […]
