Do Black Lives Matter?
This was way too important to me to throw up a black screen for a day.The truth is that each life matters to God, because he created each life -- but no one life matters more than another.We are all sinners. God loves the sinner, not the sin.The whole world can say to you your life doesn’t matter and treat you as if it doesn’t. That doesn’t make your life not matter.The whole world can say to you and treat you like your life matters, but that doesn’t make your life matter.What makes your life ma

What about George Floyd?
I am sure I am jumping into a blender on this, but no one is talking about the truth. No one is talking about the real problem.It’s easy for all of us to see clearly—any sensible person knows that his life was senselessly taken by a selfish man.Was it race? I don’t know if it was race or not.But if it was race, race is still not the problem.Race is a fruit of the problem.Until we deal with the root of the problem, nothing’s going to change. And the rioting, the rioting is a trap that is laid i

What To Do When You're Angry
Anger and all sin are most often our enemy. I do believe there is a righteous anger, but it’s rare. Righteous anger is anger for the damage sin causes, or an anger for someone using love to hurt people....using Jesus to manipulate people. That’s why Jesus threw the tables. Most of the time though, anger is our enemy and not our friend. Rebellion and riots are a trap. Before we get stuck on anger, we must follow one truth to the next truth to the next truth. Truth leads to more truth. If it leads

Three Differences Between Love and Fear
If we hate people, we are allowing fear to rule our lives. The only thing we should hate is sin because sin and selfishness destroys lives. Love and selflessness saves lives and builds them. Jesus is love! Loving selfish people may mean loving them from a distance. We don’t have to like people to love them. Loving them is doing what is best for them without regard for ourselves, and praying they surrender to love so love will also rule their lives. In “The Right Fight” I discuss this at length.

I Am Scared of God, NOT
LoveI am scared of God because I see Him as imposing and angry. How do I get that out of my mind? I have had this question a few times and at first I was shocked because I have never viewed God in that way. I was always taught that when I was punished or disciplined it was for my benefit and It truly was, because my parent's loved me. I had the benefit of knowing that beyond anything my parents loved me and even though it hurt at the time it was going to give me more opportunity

Good WordsWhen we love the Lord and our neighbor, our hearts change.

Why Does God Allow Evil?
This is a difficult thing for most people to understand and accept. And, I would guess it is a big reason many people choose not to believe. The simplest way to look at this question is to examine God’s nature and His desire for mankind.LoveGod loves us and wants us to love him back. If your BF/GF Husband/Wife had no choice to love you, would you feel the same about him/her? God could have made us like robots without the ability to make choices but we’d be forced to do things and that wouldn’t b

Has God Given Up On Me?
Hard TruthI must admit I have said this before "I've promised God hundreds of times that I'll do better, but then I goof up and go back to my old ways. God must have given up on me long ago. I would have, if I'd been in His place."One of the hardest truths for us to grasp about God is that He isn’t exactly like we are. If I were in God’s place, my patience would have run out long ago. But thank God I am not in God’s place! The Bible says, “But you, Lord, are a compassionate and gracious God, slo

Why The Cross?
HumiliatedSaturday, the day after Christ was murdered was a horrible day for his mother and the terrified disciples. The disciples must have questioned their belief in Jesus as the Son of God. Why did Jesus have to die on the cross? If he was the Son of God, how could God have allowed Him to be murdered?Not only murdered but humiliated. Stripped naked, beaten like a dog, nailed to a cross with a crown made of thorns, with a sign which read, “The King of the
