Four months ago in December, Jeremiah was accidentally shot in the eye with a BB gun which missed his brain by 1mm. His eye was completely shut and doctors wanted to remove it (they said it would never work again)….

When most of us hear or use the words “just love them like Jesus” what we mean is the unconditional love and acceptance of the person irrespective of their behavior…

I was shocked. How can this many people be praying and God be this good and the fires keep coming? Something has to be changing now but I don’t know why it isn’t. I wasn’t questioning God, I was questioning the outcome and how nothing was changing. I was baffled.

This is the kind of fasting we want to choose: to loose the chains of injustice and untie the cords of the yoke, to set the oppressed free and break every yoke?

“Well, it shouldn’t matter this much. You don’t have it nearly as bad as…” was never helpful for validating our pain. In fact, it normally shut down area’s of our heart that needed tending to.

I'm thankful for the freedom, but whew, isn't freedom supposed to be easy? He is relentless towards our freedom.

Yes, there are those people who don't stop to listen to what God's saying, but what about those of us who are leaning in so far we've fallen out of our chair and .... nothing. Perhaps, God works a bit like Siri. 

 was at a coffee shop spending time with God this morning with no plans or agenda when Joshua (the man on my right in the pic) came up to me...

It's time the Church stops staring at the floor trying to not be called upon. It's time we hear the problem, step up, and declare "I have your solution." 

"My legs started shaking...then I tried to walk....I finished walking...then I did a 50 yard sprint."

Wait, MY good? That's not true. Romans 8:28 says that He works all things together for good, not MY good. God is more concerned about the greater good than just me. It's not about me. As I debated the theological accuracy of the bridge, everyone else kept singing it...

Stage four brain cancer was prayed for and healed - proven 2 weeks later!

What do you do when after all the time of waiting and working towards something, God says "Okay, we're here. It's time to have what you've always wanted"? I know what my response should have been: celebration. But if I'm honest, I had a lot more to walk through before I'd reach, celebration.

People often use "wisdom" or rules to help keep us away from the things that could make us sin: stay away from all alcohol, from sex, from bars, from all non-G-rated movies. "Don't look, don't taste, don't touch." What's sad is they seem...

The man in the picture is a Muslim refugee from Syria. He got shot by a sniper and has been suffering from pain for a long time despite visiting the doctor 3 times. After praying for him twice, he is free of pain and look... Happy.

These braces would have had Anna a few weeks ago as she's had to walk with crutches on Wednesday, but Friday was a very different story! Jesus is alive! 

A 12 year old boy in front of 200,000 people was raised from the dead in Karachi, Pakistan. They held him without breath and his body was limp! He was resurrected after...

Over a year ago, a freak accident left me with 40% hearing loss in my left ear. The malleus bone broke, and surgery twas too risky to attempt in this case. The bottom line was there was nothing they could do.
