Authentic Christianity is a roller-coaster ride, not a merry-go-round.

Stress will either drive you crazy or drive you to your knees. It depends on who is in control of your life.

God loves us too much to pretend our sin isn't there. Sin is a cancer and Christ the surgeon. True prayer signs the consent form.

A broken heart is merely an empty manger. Invite the Virgin and the carpenter to pray beside you. Invite the Savior to dwell there.

What did all the saints have in common? They feared sin more than even physical death.

Note to self: If you can't hear God when you pray, shut up.

As a father of young girls, I want to publicly thank all women who dress and carry themselves like ladies. Your example is a gift.
