The Suffering Servant

Jesus Christ is known as "the suffering servant."  Today's sermon was from 1 Peter 2 where we learn about how we should suffer under unjust circumstances just as Christ did.  This is a high calling and only possible as we yield to the Spirit of God.

Overcoming Sin & Temptation

I'm reading a book of three of John Owen's classic works. John was a puritan pastor whose understanding of the sinfulness of the heart is amazing. It's a very convicting read! I'm reading his "Of Temptation" currently.

I've often looked at the sin in my life and wanted to repent of it and stop performing it. John tells us that no man should "pretend to fear sin that does not fear temptation to it. Tehy are too nearly allied to be separated.... He hates not the fruit who delights in the root." (pg. 193)

I'm realizing that I too often delight in the root of a particular sin more than I hate the fruit that it produces. I'm asking the Lord to change my heart and fill me with more of His Spirit so that I will desire Christ more than anything.

If you have ever struggled with sin, I highly recommend the writings of John Owen.

Doing Live Radio



We are in day 3 of our Annual "Live Legacy Radio Days" on FamilyLife Today. We go "Live" in select cities across America to share how the Lord is changing lives as we proclaim His message, and to invite others to join with us financially on a monthly basis.


We've heard many wonderful stories, and even one salvation!

Thanks be to God!

A Very Ice Day

The ministry is closed today due to the threat of ice. Caleb is off to Houston for a speech & debate tournament with his Team (about 7 other students and 4 adults). We're praying for safety as they drive today. I'll be hanging out at home, doing a bit of work and playing some games.
