• Are You Really Crucified With Christ?

    “It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me.” Galatians‬ ‭2:20‬ ‭ This is a pretty verse. Popular amongst us Christians. We have it on our shirts, our coffee mugs, our walls, but is it true? Oh,… Continue reading

  • Splat!

    I’m pretty sure that “splat!” is the sound made when a bug hits the windshield of a car whizzing by at 60mph. I’m equally confident that’s what Kyle and Will heard when I smashed into the racquetball wall going just… Continue reading

  • Walks With Toby

    I’m blessed. My daily commute to work is 23.4 seconds down a flight of stairs and I can do it in my pajamas. So there are several days a week I don’t have to leave my house. A stricter interpretation… Continue reading

  • Holy, Holy, Holy

    Multiple times in Leviticus God commands us to be holy. “Be holy, for I am holy” is repeated over and over. Why does God repeat Himself? To get our attention maybe? Then in the New Testament Peter said in 1… Continue reading

  • Good, Good Father

    This song written by Pat Barrett, lead singer of Housefires, always strikes a chord with me. Anyone who hears it probably thinks of their own father and those might not be good, good memories. My father died a little over… Continue reading
