Jesus Asleep In the Boat: Faith vs. Fear
The story of Jesus sleeping in a boat during the storm seems to be very popular. Most people seem to think the disciples lacked faith because they did not speak to the storm. But I think it was really more about their lack in faith that they were with Jesus, so the storm really was […]
Life is Like a Vapor
I have been lax with my blog posts. Life has been busy. Why do we use that as an excuse? Isn’t life always busy? Often it is our own fault it is so busy. Then at other times life twist and turns creating a busyness. I also have to be honest; at times I tend […]
Journaling For Lent
Journaling has been a great tool in my own spiritual growth. Lent as a preparation for Easter is a great time to make use of a journal to record our reflections as we focus on the problem of our sin and the depth of Jesus work on the cross. In this post, we will take […]

Are We Sharing Hope or Fear and Confusion?
“Jesus is an alternative to the dominant ways of the world, not a supplement to them” – Eugene Peterson I often wonder if I really know what it is like to live completely for Jesus. I have done multiple blog posts over the years where I talk about forsaking all to live for Jesus but […]
Our Eternal Hope in Jesus
Just a few weeks ago I had the honor to preside over a celebration of life for a very dear friend. These times always draws our attention to eternity. The main text I used for my homily was 2 Corinthians 5:1-9 (CSB). Our life here on this earth really is a vapor that passes quickly. […]
When Worshiping God Comes First
“God is trying to call us back to that which He created us – to worship Him and enjoy him forever – A.W. Tozer If we look at God’s kingdom with our logic it seems backwards. The Bible tells us to love our enemies and pray for those who persecute us. Live your life as […]
