Which Are You?

Unlocking Parables
Jesus, I don’t know how you did it. You told stories that bounced off the hearts of those who didn’t trust you and soaked into the hearts of those who did. The same story. Each person hears his own version. Ten people witness the same event. Each tells a different version of what happened. Go deeper: Ask each person to …

We can be more than conquerors! And we can prepare ourselves in advance by putting on the armor so we don’t give in to temptation when …

God Means What He Says
God carefully chooses his words. Don’t twist scripture around to make it say what you want to hear, but listen to what he’s telling us. Stay with facts and truth. Don’t add your own words to make it work for you. In your daily life, choose to always use facts and truth when dealing with challenges. “Fudging” the truth is …

Jesus, Calm the Storm
Crossing a lake was just an ordinary event back then, as common as taking a trip to the mall today. But on the way to the mall, we hit black ice. The car spins around and around, crossing the median, facing a wall of cars and trucks coming right at us. Storms come—financial setbacks, family conflicts, extremely difficult decisions, car …
Healthy Eyes

What you allow in through your eyes can make your insides healthy or sick. When a man views another woman inappropriately, it leaves him dirty inside. When he looks …

Become the Least
Most arguments I’ve witnessed or been involved in leave the original issue behind and become a power struggle to see who wins. Translation: “Who’s the greatest?” Then the “greatest” person gets their way. Sometimes the winner doesn’t bring the best ideas, and we don’t get the best results. When I invest my time and effort into making myself appear better …
