jesus children fall
In a sense we're all children of God - Jesus is called the one and only Son. Monogeneo is the word, God's only "genetic" child. He bears the very essence of God. What we say about God we say about Jesus. So the promise rises and falls on the identity of Jesus.
jesus prayer father
It seems to me that the prayers of the Bible can be distilled into one. The result is a simple, easy-to-remember, pocket-sized prayer: Father, you are good. I need help. They need help. Thank you. In Jesus' name, amen. Let this prayer punctuate your day.
roots stories
Every faith has its story; every faith has its roots.
pain evil use
The Bible teaches us that God does not cause pain, but that He uses pain and evil to advance His cause and shape His servants.
journey path hope-and-faith
Religion is intended to facilitate hope and faith. Much like a path is intended to facilitate a journey.
loss insomnia people
December is the most difficult month. Medications for insomnia or depression go up during the month of December. A lot of people who experience loss feel that loss magnified in December. Everybody seems happy and you feel all alone. You're not all alone.
waiting knowing-god knows
Waiting is an expectant patience. It's a patience that says, "I don't know what God is going to do, but I know God is going to do something."
christian jesus kings
One person told me that Christians believe in a king. We believe in a King Jesus who oversees the affairs of mankind. Maybe we're reaching for an earthly king.
christian men people
I would not have said anything about Mr. Trump, never - I would never have said anything if he didn't call himself a Christian. It'd be none of my business whatsoever to make any comments about his language, his vulgarities, his slander of people, but I was deeply troubled ... that here's a man who holds up a Bible one day, and calls a lady "bimbo" the next.
here-i-am thick-of-it wanted
There was a time I wanted to go into politics. And so all of a sudden, here I am, I guess. I'm in the thick of it.
ideas people decision
Ggrace is God's best idea - it's His decision to ravage people by love, to rescue passionately, and to restore justly.
tough-times essentials engaged
Staying engaged with God is absolutely essential for getting through a tough time.
church reputation christ
I'm protective of the reputation of Christ and the church.
divorce blessing men
Biblically defined marriage is a man and a woman for life, and so anything different than that is not God's ideal whether it be polygamy, whether it be divorce, whether it be a marriage between a man and a man or a woman and a woman. The ideal would be a man and a woman under a covenant of God's blessing.
