    Finding peace during a struggle, is like trying to find calm in a hurricane. But just like there is calm in the eye of the hurricane, we can find peace and calm right in the middle of our struggles.

As he closed in prayer he accidently said, "In Jesus’ name we play." That phrase caught on and soon others were praying before softball games ...read more

    If you want to impress God with your prayers, stop trusting yourself and start trusting the Lord. Reject any self-righteous pride and recognize your own sinful, spiritual poverty.

    Prayer transforms worry into peace, gratitude turns scarcity into joy, and intentional generosity creates lasting impact when we bring everything to God with open hearts.

    Some days it feels like life is lived in the space between sighs. Between the doctor’s call and the next appointment. Between a stack of bills and a thin bank account. Between what we hoped for and what is here. In those spaces, God is nearer than breath. He leans over the rail of heaven, ...read more
