This article first appeared on The Christian Broadcasting Network | We’re all guilty (some more than others). We post something to Facebook or Instagram and then we watch … will anyone like this? How many people will like? Will they comment? Or share it? Twitter is no different – only the question we ask ourselves – did anyone retweet it? Tag ...
How many of you have been excited about a dream …only to have life happen? I mean, the wheels were turning, your heart was beating wildly with anticipation, and the vision was coming in faster than you could write it down –and then one day, you found yourself wondering what happened? I think this scenario is pretty relatable to most ...
There is an awful law at work in every Christian. It is a stumbling block for both the instigator and the witness. We would be lost if God’s Word didn’t help us understand the battle within… “What I don’t understand about myself is that I decide one way, but then I act another, doing things I absolutely despise. So if ...
How many of us have been afraid of the dark before? Either as a child, or as an adult walking across a parking lot late at night feeling a bit eeby-jeeby because you can’t see beyond the shadows? I’m going to guess it’s all of us at one point or another. But let’s flip it around… how many of us ...
Trust isn’t earned by showing off only your Sunday best. “You see, God is a Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.” This was the final explanation Jesus gave to the woman at the well (John 4:1-26).

Why do we change our screen covers? Have you ever thought about that? Whether it be on your phone or your computer desktop, many of us update and replace the images on a regular basis. I’m one of the them. And I’ll be the first to tell you why… I change my screen covers because it evokes an emotion. In ...
Although we should never lose sight of what Jesus has done for us, we are reminded this time of year as we approach Easter, of the sacrifice He paid so we could have eternal life with God. So I wonder if you’ve ever thought about this: Do you see Jesus as a martyr or substitute? A martyr is one who willingly ...
Recently, while ministering in a women’s prison, I shared with them my struggles, but I also told them about God’s deliverance. I confessed my distresses, but I also testified of my victories in Christ. Afterward, a tough, young inmate came to my prayer line. She confessed that she had come that night only to stir up trouble.

Until recently I had never given much thought to the word echo. I knew what it meant –basically an echo is a sound heard again (a repetition if you would) of an original sound. In a large room or a canyon, you can shout and hear the echo of your voice bounce back to you. This was always fun to ...
