Can Christians Be Depressed Part II – An Honest Look Inside Pandora’s Box
It’s all about the onion layers…
It’s like we need to wade through the however many years of carnality and misconceptions we came to believe about ourselves, others, and God before we can see the real Imago Dei in each of us. Continue reading
SOAP: Day Twelve – Which Well Are You Drinking From?
If you read my earlier post you’d know that I am still sitting in the fallout of an emotional bomb going off that I didn’t see coming. I have every reason to believe that God intends to meet me in this place with today’s SOAP. I pray that he meets some of you there too. Continue reading
SOAP: Day Eleven – Free Indeed
I don’t think I’m alone in saying that once the newness of relationship with Christ wears down (and ideally that should never happen!) then the old emotional baggage of traumas, negative thinking patterns, fears, and resentments seem to bubble back up from someplace long dead and buried.

SOAP: Day One – The Word Became Flesh
This is the Gospel, this is how everything began. Do I believe this? All of it? If not, nothing else in the Bible matters, this is ground zero for our faith… Continue reading

Powerful worship service, a good sermon and times of prayer are all rewarding experiences, but an intentional time of getting deep into God’s Word seems to draw me closer to the heart and mind of Christ unlike anything else.
