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?

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. Some of you may remember the day when technology was almost nonexistent in the car world. Some of you may remember 8-track players, … Continue reading Does God Exist? Moral Standards
Be a Missionary, Not a Marketer
I once served as an interim student pastor at a church about forty minutes from where I lived. A few days a week, I would make the drive to this small town, out of the city. During the drive, I would pass through another small town, and on the way back home, I would consistently … Continue reading Be a Missionary, Not a Marketer
Does God Exist? Foundations of Creation
Where did we come from? Who created the world? Was the world even created? Or did it just appear out of nowhere? Many years ago, atheists held that the universe did not need an explanation. Bertrand Russell was known for claiming, “The universe is just there, and that’s all.” Not only is there a lack … Continue reading Does God Exist? Foundations of Creation
Does God Exist? The Reason For Apologetics
Science and faith are so often pitched as opposites and enemies, while they are complementary to one another and should be seen as partners in the course of life. I love the wonderful task of apologetics because it robs the skeptic of his skepticism, the doubter of his doubt, and unbeliever of his unbelief, and … Continue reading Does God Exist? The Reason For Apologetics

Imagining the google-esque nature of his firm, one can imagine the innovation that is required for the highly cutthroat world of technology. The firm requires not only days, but many nights. The few nights that he has at … Continue reading Enter This New Year With Something Old
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. Despite the fact that the phrase grew obnoxious to many over the time that the ad was run, it communicated … Continue reading Be Patient With God
Should I Turn Away from Satan or To God?
Everyone has heard it, "If you were to die today, do you know where you will go?" This question has been asked so much it has desensitized so many people from its implications in being asked! A few years back, when on a mission trip in Haiti, we were out doing street evangelism. We were … Continue reading Should I Turn Away from Satan or To God?
The Joy of the Old Testament
As a junior in college, I began to read Scripture more routinely and joyfully. It was in a house with four other guys, that I would wake up and have my time with God and His Word at 8:00 am (early for a 20 year old college guy!). Depending on the day would depend how … Continue reading The Joy of the Old Testament
Identity Sources
May we declare along with Paul, “Paul, an apostle–not from men nor through man, but through Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised him from the dead–and all the brothers who are with me.” Galatians 1:1–2 The unaware reader or uninformed onlooker may not realize that Paul is introducing the message of the gospel … Continue reading Identity Sources
