John 15:5
If we look at examples in the Bible, circumstances never stopped God's people from multiplying and becoming a mighty people.

Why was this? Could it be that our mindset of needing a… Continue reading Children of Our Futures
It’d be nice if there were an hourglass in front of us, displaying how far we’ve come and how far we still have to go. But it doesn’t seem the case. Or, at least I’ve never seen one.

The carpenter’s hands are bleeding but still He reaches to take you in. Blood washes over, blood and love that cleanses, makes whole again. Humanity… Continue reading Carpenter’s Tears
Has your boy/girlfriend become an idol? “Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.” 1 John 5:21 The Bible mentions idolatry a great deal in both the Old and New Testaments. Most people dismiss it because they know that they aren’t worshiping statues, so certainly they haven’t succumbed to the trap of idolatry. But is that… Continue reading Not My Idol
A while back some friends and I were laughing and talking. I can't remember exactly how we got on the subject (it seems we were throwing out crazy story plot twists), but however it happened I said something like "What if you wrote this story and the main character had no talents whatsoever and..."… Continue reading Totally Untalented
I must first warn readers that this post will contain spoilers for Jane Eyre. What is Integrity? Integrity is sticking to a strict moral code. As Christians, our moral code is found in the Bible.
