Often times I assess where Jesus is in the big picture of my life. I have been a Christian now for 13 years and during the years I have seen definite seasons of the extent to which I treasure my King.
I often hear how people like to look back over the years to see [...]

Consider the following facts taken from a snapshot of the US in 2002…
1,082 children died from violent assault
2,347 children died from car accidents
32,867 children died from disease
As a parent of two, these are heart wrenching facts. Every single one of these kids were a living soul with a personality – all snuffed out all [...]
Tonight we had Frontline at Church – our Men’s Group meeting. We’re currently going through the Warrior series by Lifechurch.tv.
One of the discussions centred around the story of Peter walking on water as described in Mat 14:28-31:
“And Peter answered him, “Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the water.” He [...]
One of my favourite passages of Scripture is the “road to Emmaus.” The gist of it goes something like this.
As the Jews were dispersing from Jerusalem following Passover Week, two blokes were walking to Emmaus – 7 miles away. All of a sudden some stranger tags along them and engages them in the most [...]
One song I can definitely relate to these days is Flyleaf’s, “I’m So Sick”. I’m not ignorant to the daily struggles I have as I live out my life.
Sure I have victories and many successes. At the same time, I get this nagging feeling that I am kept from my full potential by my own [...]
I came across a great video by Christian artists Caleb & Sol depicting the Gospel in an awesome way. Focussing on the story of Barabbas – the murdering insurrectionist, the video does a great job in showing how we are set free in Christ due to grace and grace alone.
Barabbas, even though he deserved [...]
To say that I’ve been flat out with work lately would be to understate the situation. Fourteen hour days have become the norm for me lately.
As part of my job, today I had to drive 4 hours to a regional hospital for a 1 hour meeting and then drive back.
But the drive gave me [...]
Thanks to Adrian Warnock’s blog, today I got the chance to taste the awesome resource known as “The City” – the Mars Hill Church online community building tool.
Turns out the good people at Mars Hill have made available a fully functional version of the The City at The Gospel Coalition.

Sculptor Neil Mitchell, needs publicity for his pathetic “artistic career.” You see, this guy and his art suck. Who wants to be a sculptor anyway? I mean, it’s not like they contribute to society in any meaningful way.
So in an effort to feel important and for people to look his way, he comes up [...]
I’m currently reading my first Ted Dekker novel. After years of seeing his stuff at the Christian bookstore and wondering how good “Christian fiction” is, I decided to get over my Tim Lahaye “Left Behind” mentality and dig into this book – albeit after borrowing it from a local library.
What I meant by the Left [...]

Part of the ABC “Face Off” series of debates, this particular event included new age guru Deepak Chopra, Pentecostal preacher turned “heretic” Carlton Pearson, former hooker turned Christ follower Annie Lobert and mega church Pastor [...]
I often wonder if the present global financial crisis will be the pre-curser to the establishment of the One World Government or New World Order (NWO). Many Christians believe that the presence of a One World Government is the scenario in which the Anti-Christ or the Man of Lawlessness comes to power.
In the past it [...]
