The all too common reputation for Christians is being known for what they “can’t do”; we can’t party, we can’t have premarital sex, we can’t do drugs, we can’t this and we can’t that. And then what we are known for “doing” is being hypocrites, and judgmental…this was not God’s desire for us!!! Although there [...]

The Song “I Surrender” By Kim Walker and Jesus Culture is amazing! I just love the heart and the message behind it!! We all need to come to a point of surrender to God, where we give up all that we are. I especially love the part “No turning back, I’ve made up my mind, [...]

I just recently got back from a youth camp where I was a counselor, and I witnessed some amazing things there! Many students found Christ for the first time, others found Him again.

“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” -Matthew 5:3 I never really understood this verse. “Blessed are the poor in spirit”…shouldn’t it be “blessed are the rich in spirit”?

One of the most real desires of mine is to be used by God. I know I get distracted from this motive all the time, but when I think of what I would want to have accomplished when I’m looking back on my life when I’m on my death bed, this seems to be the only thing that truly [...]

Isn’t it hard to keep focused on God? I have tried so hard throughout my life to stay focused on Him. I so often say “this time I won’t fail”, but at one point or another, something always clips me from behind, and keeps me from exceeding!! Why?! Well, I think it has to do with [...]
