By definition, is faith even exercised if our lives are acted out in situations of certainty. Hebrews 11 defines faith as, “confidence that what we hope for will actually happen; it gives us assurance about things we cannot see.” So, what is, “stepping out in faith?” Should we all, at all times, be exemplifying this type of extremeContinue reading “Urgent Obedience”

Champion the Youth
One of the most beautiful things I have seen in the body of Christ is bold, shameless eagerness that young believers get once they realize the authority and power they have, when God is on their side. In most cases, it leads to outlandish plans of million-man-march proportions, but there is nothing more refreshing. IncredibleContinue reading “Champion the Youth”
Ruined for the Ordinary
It is difficult trying to generate enthusiasm while explaining spiritual moments that, apart from being intertwined with God, naturally seem ordinary. This is arguably the most frustrating thing I’ve encountered since pursuing God-trying to communicate what is going on in my life, coupled with ensuring the spiritual magnitude is adequately relayed. Nevertheless, the underlying implications of any situation, conversation,Continue reading “Ruined for the Ordinary”
The Kingdom
Much has gone on the past month since last writing. The lecture phase of Discipleship Training School began wrapping up, and unfortunately the latter few weeks has had its diverting moments, but as outreach approaches and I consider all that is about to transpire, it’s like adrenaline to my spirit. The culmination of twelve weeks of teaching and revelation,Continue reading “The Kingdom”
The Past 15 Months
Over the past few weeks I’ve been talking to people I haven’t seen, or heard from in the last few years. Each conversation has been amazing in its own way, despite some awkward moments, on both ends. Some of these guys I once considered “closer than family” during different periods of my life. These people know my darkest secrets, theyContinue reading “The Past 15 Months”

“Infinite Love + Perfect Intelligence + Perfect Love + Infinite Intelligence = God’s plan for my life.” -Larry Allen One of the biggest lies the enemy would lead us to believe is that pursuing a relationship with Jesus will prevent us from living an “exciting life”. That weekend plans, as described by Will Ferrell inContinue reading “Awesome Life”
Day Changer
“The quickest way to enter ministry is by telling someone they have worth.” Dean Sherman It’s no secret that the “ruler of this world” is in every aspect of society. Literally, “(prowling) around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour (1 Peter 5).” He has free reign to influence and infiltrate anywhere he chooses. Work, school,Continue reading “Day Changer”
Stake Your Claim
This is what’s on my heart. There is an overarching concept circulating amongst believers that we are always either entering, or leaving a “season” in our life. To a degree this may be true, and undoubtedly saying this is harmless and pure in intent. Even using this rhetoric properly to distinguish periods of life can create a goal-orientedContinue reading “Stake Your Claim”
