Have we made COVID-19 an idol?

on
April 22, 2020

 

I posted the following question on my personal Facebook page.

“Have Christians given COVID 19 so much of our attention that we’ve made it an idol?”

Even as I was typing, I had to admit that I was just as guilty as the next person.

The why behind this blog

on
July 20, 2018

I haven’t posted anything here in quite a while, and as I was considering whether or not to get back into blogging, I did a lot of thinking and praying about what I want this space to be and, more importantly, what God wants this space to be.

The cares of this world overwhelm us as the weight of two thousand Christmases past settles on our shoulders. We see the brokenness all around us and we wonder how much longer God will leave the world this way. We thought things would be different by now. We were sure that God would make it all better.

November 4, 2016
When I'm consuming a steady diet of the worlds entertainment, my mind not stayed on Christ. It's the spiritual equivalent of eating cake for every meal. It might seem good at the time, but it leaves you feeling sluggish and sick.

on
September 14, 2016

As I’ve been thinking about getting back into blogging after a long break and some pretty big change, I’ve found myself wondering just what I have to offer. The past three years have been the hardest of my life and the emotional tank has almost run dry.

While I’ve felt…
