    One of the pitfalls a guy who lives inside his head so much can encounter is not knowing when to leave.

    I’m an idea guy. I love ideas. That’s why I love books; they’re full of ideas. I read a lot. I think about things; turning them over in my head like a bread-maker kneads dough. A lot of my life has been spent inside my own head. We live out in the country and we’re real do-it-yourselfers. We build ...read more

    Did He really do all those things the Bible claims He did?

    Something’s been bothering me since the seventh grade and now’s a good time to get it off my chest. It’s about God. About His abilities actually. Did He really do all those things the Bible claims He did? It was in seventh grade that the question first came up. Until then I just assumed that God ...read more

    We draw meaning from the stuff we collect.How Jesus turned Abraham Maslow’s “Hierarchy of Human Needs” pyramid upside-down and flattened it with a single statement: “But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to

    “But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well” (Matthew 6:33).

    Individual Purpose Vs. Corporate Purpose

    Contributed by Steven Spillman on May 1, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,252 views

    Doesn’t God have a purpose for mankind in general or for the church as a whole? Isn’t focusing on individual purpose a little self-serving? Aren’t we pushing individualism at the expense of the Body of Christ?

    Up to this point, Purpose Weekly has focused on individual purpose. But what about corporate purpose? Doesn’t God have a purpose for mankind in general or for the church as a whole? Isn’t focusing on individual purpose a little self-serving? Aren’t we pushing individualism at the expense of the ...read more

    some aspects of God’s specific purpose for your life and how He works to fulfill that purpose.

    I wrote in an earlier letter (Purpose Vol. 1, Issue 10) that I wasn’t big on recipes or seven step strategies for spiritual success. Well, I’m not.

    “The secret of success is in the blocking and tackling. Focus on the blocking and tackling and everything else will come along.”

    It was something I should have learned in High School football. After all, I played tackle; it would have made my experience more meaningful if I knew it then. But I didn’t. It was a lot of years after high school; when I was in business and a mentor shared it with me. “The secret of success is in ...read more

    Obedience, with a big “O” isn’t how we behave. Behavior is like obedience with a little “o”.

    Obedience, with a big “O” isn’t how we behave. We talked about behavior a few weeks ago (Purpose Issue 16). Behavior is like obedience with a little “o”.
