God’s Part – My Part

When I woke up today, I woke into the same day you did; except mine is filled with my stuff and yours with your stuff. So in a way, our days are different. When we wake, we are told to lay hold of something so wonderful that it transcends all days, yours and mine....

The Power of Letting Go

The Apostle Paul is arguably the greatest apostle of the first century church, even though he began as a religious terrorist persecuting the church. When he found Jesus, or better when Jesus found him on the road to Damascus, Paul, or Saul as he was called then, began...

Engage Encounter Exchange

Remember our parents when they used to say something like this to get our attention, “Look at me, I need you to listen to me. Please, look at my eyes!” Why? Because we were somewhere else, “spacing out”, we used to say. So, to get our attention, they called us into...

The Walls of Jerusalem

I am in Jerusalem as I write this. Cammy and I are here visiting Gregory and Jan Kuske, who are leaders of Jubilee Humanitarian Agency (our NG0 in Israel), as we meet with leaders of Social Services and the Jewish Agency. We are involved in a pilot program with youth...

Rebooting Hope

Hope is eternal. It is living. It is Christ, the hope of glory. So, hope can reboot inside our souls, and the situations we find ourselves in, because Holy Spirit is the carrier of our hope. He knows our destinies in Christ before the foundation of the world. He can...

Willing and Able

Believe in Hope

Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be. Romans 4:18 KJV (please read Romans 4:17-21, for the scriptural promise in this blog) Jesus is seated at the right hand of the...
