Every Christian is called to preach the gospel. We need to take the commission seriously.

It is going to get worse before it gets better.

Heaven is a paradise, a city, a country . . . and so much more that we can't begin to wrap our finite minds around it. But one thing I do know: Jesus is expecting me, and He's prepared a place for me.

I think any belief system that says to a person, "I don't need Jesus because I have my ritual" is a problem.

God will test you because He wants you to mature. He wants you to develop a walk with Him that is not based on your fluctuating emotions, but on your commitment to Him as you learn to walk by faith.

Either you will have harmony with God and friction with people, or you will have harmony with people and friction with God.

The message of the season is not, "Let it snow" or even, "Let us shop." The real message of Christmas is, "Let us worship." That is what the wise men came to do. And that is what we should be doing as well.
