Judging other people is dangerous because it lulls us into a false sense of security, blinds us to our own faults, and usurps God’s role as judge.
We Christians can be such "dorks" sometimes. We have a tendency to build our own little holy huddle, with our own special words and secret handshakes. If a person shows up who doesn’t know our special words, they feel like a fish out of water. No wonder so many unchurched seekers are deeply ...read more

When life falls apart, faith refuses to panic, seeks God’s strength and guidance, and trusts Him to restore what’s been lost.
Some days smell like smoke. The kind of day when you pull into the driveway and something feels off. The porch light is on, but peace is off.
