My Soul
My soul craves God. It may sound like a cliché, but it’s true. God loves me. He loves you, too. Regardless of what you’ve done or what’s been done to you, God wants to be a part of your life.
The best known verse in the Bible is John 3:16. In The Message it’s translated this way:

Awaken
Every night before bed, I tuck my daughter in and she tells me what she wants to dream about. Some nights she chooses to dream of Tinkerbell. Other nights it’s playing with cousins and dancing on clouds. Butterflies are a constant staple. These are good choices for my little four year old.

What Do You Want To Believe In?
"What do you want to believe in?" This question intrigues me. It suggests that I have a choice in what I believe in. I thought I either believe or don’t. I want to believe in what is true. I look at the varying ways people we believe we are created and I realize that in all probability only one... >Read More
