Does God Exist? Faulty Accusations
As I spoke with an atheist one day who struggled to comprehend the possibility of the existence of God, he posed a few questions. He did not pose these questions in order to “stump” me, but out of a genuine curiosity and difficulty on wrapping his head around the idea of a divine being. As … Continue reading Does God Exist? Faulty Accusations
Does God Exist? Moral Standards
A few months back, while on a road trip with my dad and brother, we began to talk about the advance of technology and got on the subject of technology in cars.

Be a Missionary, Not a Marketer

Does God Exist? Foundations of Creation

Be Patient With God
“It’s my money and I need it now!” If you live with a TV and have cable, you have heard this commercial that JG Wentworth aggressively and unapologetically used to overrun the world of television advertisement.

There is No Fear In Love
The three most important words in any language to any relationship are, “I love you.” Every lasting relationship not only says these words, but shows these words. Though God may not say “I love you” verbatim in Scripture, time and time again He tells us and shows us that He loves us. For example, take … Continue reading There is No Fear In Love
