A New Perspective

Are you frustrated?  Hurting?  Scared?  Tired of waiting for your prayer to be answered?  I was reading the other night before I went to sleep and came across this scripture.  I can’t get enough of this.  It seems to always come up right when I need it.  Whatever your storm may be…  let this get [...]

INHERIT THE LAND

I just fell in love with a word.  It’s the word “inherit”.  It’s definition is “to receive (money, property, or a title) as an heir at the death of the previous holder”.  I just recently read Psalm 37 and noticed the repetition of the word inherit.  Listen: v. 9-  …  but those who wait for [...]

TIRED OF JUST SURVIVING

Ever feel like you’re doing everything you can to make ends meet, but it’s just not enough?  You plan, pray, work, dream, set goals, have meetings, read your Bible, read books, seek wisdom, study, practice, network, and yet…  you’re still stuck in your sticky situation. I’m coming to the realization that this truly is just [...]

15 Minutes for God. What a joke.

I’m burdened by the 15 minute daily devotion.  Everybody loves to talk about how Christianity is “not a religion but a relationship”.  You’ve heard it, probably even quoted the very same words, haven’t you?  Don’t worry, I have too.  Yet, our 15 minutes, maybe even 20 minutes on a really really good day, proves that [...]

A Call For Christian Risk

In light of the fact that our eternity with Christ is secure…  let us throw off the sin and worries that holds us back from unwavering faith and devotion to Him.  I found this blog from Pastor John Piper.  It would do the world a great service if we could let this get into our [...]

Child-like Faith in Real Life

During the last week of our Christmas tour, we had the privilege of meeting two young boys, ahem… men. They are Carson and Jackson. We are partnered with Food for the Hungry and it is obvious that when you bring 33Miles to your town… you bring Food for the Hungry as well. I realize that [...]

Assessing Life

How often do you do this? Assess Life. Assessing, or evaluating, my life has pretty much become a daily routine for me. OK, so it might be a small part of my “obsessive compulsiveness”, but on the other hand… I’m hopeful that it’s a small reflection of God given wisdom beginning to slowly develop in [...]

Why Aren’t We Asking???

Jesus has just taught his disciples how to pray and then follows it up with a parable. “Which of you who has a friend will go to him at midnight and say to him, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves, for a friend of mine has arrived on a journey, and I have nothing to set [...]

YOU’LL NEVER BE THANKFUL

It has come and gone…  Thanksgiving that is…  well…  the holiday, at least.  Hopefully, the act of thanksgiving will continue on.  In our fellowship, our Sunday school lesson and the preaching in the service was on having a thankful heart.  So I ask you, “Are you thankful today?”  No…  really thankful.  I listened to all the [...]
