Praise the Lord for your straight-forward and Biblical responses to questions on today’s Serious Faith e-mail. I have printed off numerous articles in the past and appreciate that you always conclude with, “Never take my word for anything! Get your Bible out, check out my answer against God’s Word... more

Your devotions are a blessing to me. I praise God for your wonderful gift, and thank you for using this gift of expression and communication to the glory of God.
Your December 3, 2003 was especially meaningful. RT |

Thank you, thank you, thank you for this and all your many wonderful teachings. I believe this wholeheartedly, but, until now, did not know exactly why. Thanks for explaining "exactly why". I love your teachings as they are not only easy to understand, especially since I am definitely not a bible... more

Your daily devotionals are a vital part and such a blessing to me and this ministry. I use a lot of your materials in my sermons. I sincerely
appreciate your fine work and pray for your ministry daily. I can't express the overwhelming joy and power for living received thru your devotionals. May... more

Thanks again for addressing the subject of what we pray for and how important it is to recognize God's will is not always to "fix" "restore" or "bless" us with what we want or think would be right or just. BC |

Learning From Abby
080904 Thursday, September 04, 2008 Daily Message (Happiness)
Luke 18:16
|
|
 |
Jesus loved children and plainly said we should be just like them. Jesus wasn’t just talking trust, but also happiness, the ability to be care free most of the time, not worrying, easily getting over and forgetting trials, quickly put the past behind, not becoming bitter and accepting God’s comfort. | Read Devotionals |

You Might Not Get the Answer You Want
080826 Tuesday, August 26, 2008 Daily Message (Trust)
Mark 10:17
|
|
 |
Whatever question you are afraid to ask God, because you might not get the answer you want... that is probably the very thing that is putting distance between you and God. | Read Devotionals |
|
Time To Cry
080804 Monday, August 04, 2008 Daily Message (Gods Love)
Lamentations 3:20-24
|
|
 |
I thank God for these intensely emotional,
even heartbreaking times. They remind us we are alive, that life is unpredictable, and that God is ALWAYS there to protect, love, comfort and keep us from being lonely. Is there anything warmer and more soothing than the arms of our dear Savior when life is at it’s worst? | Read Devotionals |
|
Mechanical Ministry
08071 Friday, August 01, 2008 Daily Message (Ministry)
Mark 5:34
|
|
 |
Think deeply about the terms “mechanical ministry” and “incidental ministry”. Is your Christian life centered around routine, liturgy, programs and a building? Is your faith segmented, scheduled and occurs in brief time slots? Or is it integrated into every moment and experience of your day? | Read Devotionals |
|
Growing Spiritually
071109 Friday, November 09, 2007 Daily Message (Maturity)
Hebrews 10:22
| Spanish
version available
|
|
 |
Does God taunt us with promises of a personal relationship and then sidestep us just when we get close? Does He derive some perverse pleasure in dangling a carrot of intimacy that can be conceived but rarely experienced? Of course not. | Read Devotionals |
|
God's Statistics
080715 Tuesday, July 15, 2008 Daily Message (Hope)
Hebrews 13:5-6
|
|
 |
The absolutes of God's statistics... have you ever considered them? What's going on in your life? Are you anchored to, hoping in, and look towards the "always" and "never" of God's promises? | Read Devotionals |
|
An Opportunity for Faith
080714 Monday, July 14, 2008 Daily Message (Faith)
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
|
|
 |
Has God presented you with an opportunity of faith and thanksgiving? Maybe He has but you haven’t learn to see it that way yet. While increased faith comes in many ways, VERY often it is achieved through trials, hardship, suffering and uncertainty. Do you see it for the blessing that it is? Do you thank God for it? | Read Devotionals |
|
Relevant Words From the Past
080709 Wednesday, July 09, 2008 Daily Message (Leadership)
Ezekiel 22:30
|
|
 |
We need leaders in all areas who are rugged, blunt-spoken and a little bit angry with not only a rapidly declining world morality, but with a Church and Christianity gone soft with compromise, materialism and ear-tickling. | Read Devotionals |
|
Your Real Need
080703 Thursday, July 03, 2008 Daily Message (Need)
Mark 2:4-5
|
|
 |
If you feel like God is not responding or listening, maybe it's because you're praying about the wrong thing. Ask God, He'll tell you. Cut a whole in the roof of heaven and lower yourself down in front of Jesus. Don't worry, He'll get right to the point. | Read Devotionals |
