On When Bad Things Happen
On When Bad Things Happen
God didn't create the problem you find yourself in. He didn't let you down - in fact He lifted you up when you fell down. That's hard to see sometimes when we are deep in hurt or loss. There's a tendency to blame God when things don't go our way but God didn't do it.

On Rejecting the Catholic Church
“...I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.” Do I?

On Fruitfulness
Did you know that as individuals and a collective Body of Christ we are meant to be fruitful? I often wonder about that. Sometimes I feel caught up in mundane tasks that demand my attention and it feels like I’m not producing a fruitful lifestyle as defined by scripture.
