Today my reading is in James chapter three. It talks about taming the tongue. “But no man can tame the tongue. It is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in the similitude of God. Out of […]
Faith that Endures
There was a time in my life that I thought it was enough to say I’m a Christian. That’s really as deep as it went for me. It sounds so naive but it’s the truth. There was no true life change for me. It was many years later that I understood that I was to […]
Faith that Endures
Starting a study on the book of James this week. Learning about having a faith that endures. This short book of the Bible is full of truth to teach us how to live. Starting with James 1:2, “Whenever trouble comes your way, let it be an opportunity for joy.” When everything in my life is […]
“Communication is Key”
“And so, dear brothers and sisters, we can boldly enter heaven’s Most Holy Place because of the blood of Jesus. By his death, Jesus opened a new and life-giving way through the curtain into the Most Holy Place.” Hebrews 10:19-20 NLT What great news is this! Before Jesus shed His blood for us we couldn’t […]
Is it Time for a Checkup?
Not too long ago I took my daughter to the eye doctor. I decided since we were there I might as well ask him about my lazy eye. He told me that my lazy eye could be from straining and that I probably needed to have my eyes checked, also. So before I knew it […]

Therefore, the time has come for you to lead these people, the Israelites, across the Jordan River into the land I am giving them. I promise you what I promised Moses: ‘Wherever […]
Running for Jesus
I have over the years found a love for running. I’ve learned a lot through running. Running can clear my mind, destress my day, keep me healthy and push me to be better. If you are a runner then you have probably ran a 5k or 10k or some kind of race. Think about this, […]
Jesus is calling through the hustle and bustle
Jesus called out to them, “Come, be my disciples, and I will show you how to fish for people!” And they left their nets at once and went with Him. The disciples response is what shocks me. They left their nets at once and went with Him. They didn’t wait a little bit, finish what […]
God is good all the time and all the time God is good
Yesterday marked two years since my dad has been gone. Two years that have changed me, that have changed my family. Just nine days ago marked the one year anniversary of Keith’s dad passing. Two very important people in our lives, two of the wisest men I have ever known, two of the hardest working […]
New clothes waiting for You
“Jeshua’s clothing was filthy as he stood there before the angel. So the angel said to the others standing there, “Take off his filthy clothes.” And turning to Jeshua he said, “See, I have taken away your sins, and now I am giving you these fine new clothes.”” Zechariah 3:3-4 NLT I don’t like wearing […]
