  • Flooded with Courage

    “As Pharaoh approached, the Israelites looked up and saw the Egyptians coming after them. Then the Israelites were terrified and cried out to the Lord for help. They said to Moses: ‘Is it because there are no graves in Egypt that you took us to die in the wilderness? What have you done to us…

  • Flooded with Healing

    Last night we focused on trust and we committed to trust God with everything we have this week. We committed to listen to God and to dive into the ocean of grace He has for us. This evening I only want to ask one simple question: Are you suffering from any ailment at all? Are…

  • Who does church growth depend on?

    In many places around us and in this nation, when we ask how to grow a church, many people will answer that we must have good programs (something offered for every age), that we must have a preacher that appeals to a more charismatic group, that we must use the latest technology and that we…

  • Should Christians get involved in drama?

    Everywhere we look, others are living out personal dramas that envelop them in cocoon of emotion.

  • For Our Graduates

    I remember graduating from high school. The world felt surreal. I had no idea what was coming. All I knew is that one chapter in my life was closing and a new one was opening. This new chapter would no doubt be different. I got to the college campus at Oklahoma Baptist University and my…

  • What Does Death Mean for a Christian?

    With the recent severe weather, especially the devastating tornado that killed at least 24 and injured more than 200, just south of us, I felt it appropriate that I addressed death and what it means to Christians. Should the Christian community fear death? Should it welcome death? Should it be excited about death?   Allow…

  • What My Graduation Actually Means

    People in my life, those who have impacted my life and those I look up to (both friends and family) continue to congratulate me on my accomplishments over the last four years. I am the first person in my family to graduate from a university and I did so earning some rewards and special recognition.…

  • Waiting on God can be difficult. Here’s some encouragement.

    Do you not know? Have you not heard? Yahweh is the everlasting God, the Creator of the whole earth. He never grows faint or weary; there is no limit to His understanding. He gives strength to the weary and strengthens the powerless. Youths may faint and grow weary, and young men stumble and fall, but…
