Religion makes us accidental Pharisees or sinners, and we don't want to be either. We are the ones in need of mercy, and Jesus is our Good Samaritan.

Because Jesus has risen, sin has been defeated, death has been conquered, and Satan has been crushed. Because of Jesus, death is not the end, and there is always a reason to celebrate.

It's easy to get lost because life never gives us what we expect. What brings God joy? Finding a lost sinner and bringing him home.

More than a parable about prayer, but a parable of justification. We are made right through faith alone because God's grace is given, not earned.

The Kingdom of Heaven is not a reward for people who deserve it. We are all equally undeserving of God's grace; yet He is a gracious master who gives us far more than we deserve.

In this world, there are those who are good and those who are evil. It is not our job to judge who is good and who is evil, but God's alone. When we take on the task of judging, we unintentionally hurt the harvest.

The Kingdom of Heaven is priceless in value, personal, and is the true source of real joy. Genuine faith never fails to appreciate the true cost of salvation.

A parable is a spiritual lesson thrown alongside life as it happens, hiding truth from the self-righteous, yet revealing truth to genuine seekers.

It is difficult to build a life of righteousness on a foundation of sin.

God uses imperfect marriages to display His greatness. Marriage is a covenant partnership, not a contract.

God is my One, my spouse is my Two. I promise to always pursue my Two. Husbands: pursue your wives with words of affection. Wives: pursue your husbands with words of affirmation.

It's often not the big things; it's the good things that get out of priority in our marriages.

You cannot be emotionally immature and spiritually mature and at the same time.

Prayerless striving leads only to exhaustion. We need to communicate with God with gut-level honesty, and talk to Him - continually - about everything that matters to us, then be still and listen for His response.

Serving takes our eyes off ourselves so we may become more aware of God.

A Christ-centered home is marked by forgiveness, and choosing to love like you have never been hurt.

We have all heard and probably used the expression, “Is nothing holy anymore?”

Your foundation matters, and it must be formed before the storm comes.

Christmas is not just an invitation to anticipate Joy, Hope, and Peace, but an invitation to experience them firsthand through Jesus.

Jesus came to save our broken and troubled world. When we pour out our hearts to Him, we find mercy, refuge, peace, and hope for tomorrow.
