I co-pastor now, so I preach six months, then another guy preaches six months. So that's really why I'm preparing for January, because I'll finish in June; then I'll be writing and doing other projects for the rest of the year.

I don't like hassles. But I love Christmas because it reminds us how "God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God" (Rom. 8:28 NLT).

I've never been surprised by God's judgment, but I'm still stunned by His grace.

What if you woke up this morning and had only the things you thanked God for yesterday?

He loves each one of us like there is only one of us to love (when God whisper your name)

Faith is not the belief that God will do what you want. It is the belief that God will do what is right.

It's such a unique story. Book of Joshua in the Bible wasn't always my favorite book, by the way. Only some ago did I realize that this book covers a seven-year period in the history of ancient Israel in which they literally went undefeated.They did have one setback, but outside of that, they defeated over 30 kings. They recaptured the Promised Land. They did what their ancestors said they could not.
