What is your approach to life?  Do you see it as an indescribable gift with a clear purpose to live out or do you see it as something that just happens so make the best of it? I have been meditating upon Psalm 68:28 recently.  “Summon your might, O God.  Display your power, O God, […]

Have you ever thought about how you are investing in romance?  Where have you been looking for guidance about sex and romance?  Statistics reveal that most people even those who regularly attend church are not looking to the Church or to God’s Word for guidance about sex and romance.  The spirit of Eros has taken […]

Mother Teresa has said, “The hunger for love is harder to satisfy than the hunger for bread.”  I encourage you to take some time to really think about that statement, especially this Christmas season.  Most of the talk and action during this season is focused on satisfying the physical needs of people.  But the very […]

Fences are primarily used to keep something from getting in or to keep something from getting out.   They are there to protect and isolate.  They can be a picture of something much deeper going on within our hearts.  We all have spiritual and emotional fences.  We can put up self protection fences in an attempt […]
