You're Not Chasing a Ghost
When the boys were younger, we used to play Call of Duty and Modern Warfare together. They’d be zipping around the map with all the skill in the world. They always knew exactly where I was.
But me? I was lost. Wandering. Spinning in circles. I could never find them. Sometimes they’d even follow m...

"Jesus is Coming . . . I'm not going to need it."
This week, DiAnne and I have the privilege of spending time in Gulf Shores with Tim and Marla Logan, two of our dearest friends.
We met them back in 1989 when I started working as the Youth Minister at West Huntsville Church of Christ. Tim was the deacon over youth, and he and Marla were absolute...

Start Producing - Stop Subtracting
What if we measured our spiritual growth by what we've begun, instead of what we quit?

The Only Sentence That Matters
I believe Jesus is the Son of God. The words are simple. No syllables to stumble over. No hidden meanings to decode. Yet that single statement carries more weight than any other sentence you will ever speak. Its implications stretch beyond time and history. It is an eternal confession. When the w...

When Good Becomes the Danger
This week’s message explores one of the most unsettling truths in Scripture, and it is also one of the most counterintuitive. It doesn't confront your worst sin. It defies your deepest confidence. It challenges our preconceived ideas about what it means to be "good."
What???
What if the biggest ...

Even On Your Worst Days . . .
The Problem We All Face
There are days when your heart doesn’t feel holy. Days when prayer feels dry, distracted, or distant. Days when guilt clings like a fog that won’t lift. You open your Bible, but it feels hollow. You try to pray, but the words don’t come. You want to worship, but shame tigh...
