We’ve probably all heard someone say the phrase. Maybe they’ve done something wrong unintentionally and others have judged them harshly, and so the retort comes, “God knows my heart.” Or, maybe it’s in regard to a wayward child or a generally “good” person who is not following the Lord - “God...
It's become a little bit of an internet gag... the quirky selfie with the hashtag "blessed" because of whatever good fortune someone has enjoyed. While this can often just be silly fun, it does point out that we all long for the "blessed life". But what does Jesus say the #Blessed life looks like?...
On Tuesday, September 29, 2020, in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic, my grandfather went to be with his Lord. He helped to raise me and played a huge role in my life.

Are you crazy busy? Stressed out? Do you find yourself always replying with the same almost automated response when people ask how are you? “I’m busy, but good.” As much as I try to avoid it—I am. I know that feeling all too well. We tell ourselves it’s just for a season, but seasons have a...
