“Does anybody really know what time it is? Does anybody really care?” The band Chicago released a song with these lyrics in 1970, and as far as I know, it was not inspired by the Bible. However, it does suggest biblical truths about time and our fast-paced world. I think we all can attest that […]
As I was praying about the state of our world and all the chaos that’s going on, the song “I Won’t Back Down” by Tom Petty immediately came to mind. The lyrics include the powerful statement, “I got just one life; in a world that keeps on pushing me around; but I’ll stand my ground, […]
According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, tailor-made is defined as something made or fitted especially to a particular use or purpose; made by a tailor, with a tailor’s care and style. Have you ever had anything tailor-made? When you own something so customized, you truly have a one-of-a-kind item made especially for you. The tailor makes […]
When I think about the word ‘core,’ words like values, center, innermost, foundation and plank come to mind. The word core often is used in describing beliefs, values, a muscle group and, spiritually speaking, God as the center of our lives.

God loves you, and He loves to use the broken.” We’ve all experienced storms that seem to hit all at once, sometimes in every facet of our lives. When storms come, it feels like everything is falling apart, which sometimes causes us to fall apart. […]
The excitement of a home renovation can quickly be diminished by strained budgets and other unexpected circumstances. The good news is that most of the time, these problems can be avoided by planning properly, setting a realistic budget and always padding your budget for unforeseen issues. When I rehab homes in my flipping business, I […]
John 3:16 tells us, “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” Now this is the greatest example of the power of love! Can we truly comprehend that vast power of love? Ephesians 3:18 speaks of the ability […]
This past year, I found myself saying things like, “I can’t wait to get out of 2020,” “I’m looking forward to 2021; it has to be better than this,” and “A new year will bring new beginnings.” I even considered purchasing a 2021 day planner in the middle of 2020, but they weren’t available. I […]
I don’t know about you, but sometimes I feel restricted — hemmed in by whatever’s going on around me. In fact, entire nations can feel hemmed in at times, possibly due to a natural disaster, an upcoming election or a pandemic, much like we are experiencing today.
