What Jesus Did
Some of you might remember this, but around this time last year when I first started writing these “mini-devos” I challenged people to use the fun mythology surrounding Punxsutawney Phil and Groundhog Day (coming up this Saturday!) as a reminder to look inside our hearts and see what the weather forecast of our hearts were. I reminded people that while it was silly to put trust into a groundhog’s shadow, it wasn’t silly to trust in Jesus. → Read more...
Our Moment of Truth
Last night, my wife and I sat down to watch some television. We watched some American Idol (come on, you know you are too) and then after that was a new television game show on the FOX channel called Moment of Truth.

You sit in a chair across from the host and get asked a variety of questions and you have to answer them truthfully. → Read more...

Valentine’s Day

Stuffed animals are holding hearts saying, “I Love You!” Yep, it’s that time of the year. Valentine’s Day is coming. (For you husbands out there, it’s this coming Wednesday. Don’t say I didn’t remind you!) This day, like most holidays, usually brings about a mixture of emotions for different people. → Read more...

Last week, I talked about the fact that without Jesus as our savior and mediator, we cannot reach and communicate with God and thus ultimately fully worship Him. Worship is something that I have struggled with for a long time. For me, and I think for a lot of people too, it is hard to be reverent to something that you don’t see or fully grasp. That has been changing lately. My wife and I have a favorite show that we like to watch on the History Channel. → Read more...
