Have you ever prayed and felt like you were met with nothing but silence? Like your words disappeared into the void, and heaven had gone quiet? It can be unsettling, even painful, to cry out to God and feel as if He isn’t answering. Silence does not mean absence, and waiting does not mean forgotten.

Big decisions affect our future, our family, our finances, our calling. Whatever your situation, you probably feel the weight of it. But here’s the good news: God is not trying to hide His will from you. He’s inviting you to walk with Him in it.

When you honor someone, you give them extra priority and attention. You give them weight in your life. The weightier they are in your estimation, the more honor you will give them.

Our plans are limited by our knowledge, foresight, and circumstances. We make the best decisions we can with the information we have, but often, things don’t go as expected. This is where the beauty of God's plans comes in.

One of the biggest reasons so many Christians don’t feel free or have hope is that they are drowning in shame. What’s ironic, and painfully sad, is that they don’t know they are experiencing shame.

For many of us, admitting our doubts feels like a spiritual failure. We push these thoughts down, hoping they’ll disappear if we ignore them long enough. But what if I told you that your doubts aren’t a sign of weak faith but potentially the pathway to stronger faith?

I had the privilege of sitting down with Tricia Patterson at Anthem Church to discuss my book Holy Habits and the journey of cultivating a lifelong faith.

We’re all naturally selfish, but God wants us to become supernaturally generous.

There is a race marked out for us, but what many of us miss is that it’s NOT meant to be a solo run.

If we’re going to walk with Jesus for a lifetime, we need to keep our spiritual tanks full.

The Holy Spirit desires to help us walk with Jesus for a lifetime. But he wants us to participate in the process.

I wrote Holy Habits as an urgent call for Christians to embrace a rhythm of life that will help them walk with Jesus for a lifetime.

Starting my year in prayer and fasting has profoundly impacted my life, and it can have the same impact on yours as well.

John Calvin hit it on the head when he said, “The human heart is an idol factory.”

Some believe the church today is declining, but nothing could be further from the truth.

Out of love, God puts a fence around our behavior so that we can live full, long lives. He restricts our freedom in order to give us true freedom.

A friend received a life-altering health diagnosis. It would likely shorten her life and change it forever. What now?

The compass is what you know to be true no matter where you are.

As a pastor, I’ve learned that many people are confused about spiritual gifts. It’s time for some clarity.

God shows us the story of humanity through a series of doors. In fact, if you look for them, doors are all over the Bible.
