Welcome to my blog. I mostly write about Christian Living, but I enjoy the Kentucky Wildcats, New Orleans Saints, and a good cup of coffee.
All in christian living
It’s such a great feeling when you know you earned something. It wasn’t just given. You worked hard, spent precious time, and maybe even sweated for it. You want to show it off or talk about it.
In college I lived it up. I’m not proud of the things I did and I honestly wish I could do it over and make a lot of changes. I said all the right things and went to all the right Bible studies, but outside of those things, I didn’t look like a Christian. I looked like a major hypocrite.
Last Thursday, our seven week old daughter become inconsolable, very hot, and we could not get her calm for about an hour. After texting our pediatrician and calling the after hours nurse, we were told to head to a pediatric ER that was about an hour away.
But some days I feel as though I’m walking around in a fog or that my head is empty with a little white sign that says, “space for rent.”
My wife and I losing our first child was one of the hardest times I've faced so far in my life. As I hold my less than two month old daughter, I always remember that this is my third child, not my second.
It’s so easy to invite someone to church isn’t it? You might ask them where they go to church and if they say they don’t go anywhere then it’s easy to say, “Well you should come to mine!” I’m not saying there’s anything wrong with that.
Last night, my favorite quarterback broke the all time passing yard record in the NFL. Drew Brees passed Brett Favre and Peyton Manning in one game to take the lead.
God is concerned with your holiness, period. The natural question or objection then is, “But I’m His child, shouldn’t He want my happiness?”
I am constantly baffled by some of the stories I hear from husbands and about husbands. I hear of men who still mostly live like they’re bachelors.
When we think of shepherds in our life, we tend to think about pastors. Shepherds and sheep are the biblical imagery that we’ve been given for pastors and their congregations. The pastor keeps watch of his church as a shepherd keeps watch of his sheep.
In the Christian world, there sadly aren’t as many women’s resources and teachers as I’d like to see. Women naturally gravitate toward other women and having lived with a woman for six years, I realize God made y’all different from us men and sometimes a woman just gets it.
I think I bring a unique perspective to the table. I’ve had opportunity to do ministry in New Orleans and I currently do ministry in rural Kentucky. Believe it or not, I think there are more similarities than you might think.
