Am I A Bad Father? Did My Resistance Create My Kids' Resistance?

The short answer is, “Yes, partly.” I don’t mean to come out of the gate swinging, but I tell every new or would-be father the hard reality that your sin is going to mess your kids up. Please don’t stop reading! There is good news coming! But first, the bad news: Kids learn by imitation. So they pick up your bad habits. If you resist church or the practices of the faith like prayer, your kids will resist these things too. Your actions and attitudes (even if you think you are hiding them – you aren’t!) teach your kids that God, church, prayer etc. are no good.

The Most Tiring Job in the World (And How I Finally Quit)

Monday, 1:08 AM: My wife is next to me sleeping peacefully. But me? I'm wide awake and on the job. Not that I'm actually doing anything, mind you. I'm just lying in bed trying to be the architect of my whole life.

Loved by God through toast and marmalade

This morning God reminded me that I am not alone. He is working everywhere, through everything to show me how he loves me. Specifically me. This morning, the message was jam-adjacent.

My anxious questions are God's invitations

I wake up with a question already on my mind. It’s usually anxiety-laden or self-judgemental. Something like, “Am I getting up too late? Am I already using this day badly?” What if these questions are invitations from God?

Stop Asking the World What Only God Can Answer

We all wake up in the morning with a question that needs answering. "Am I enough?" "Am I loveable?" Jesus wants to meet us where we are and answer these questions for us. Taking these questions to the world results in disaster.

God has time for "eeny, meeny, miny, moe!"

Every morning, I wake up with my heart already asking critical questions: "Am I loveable?" "Am I enough?" "Do I have what it takes?" And if I don’t take the time to let God answer these questions for me — with love and grace — I’ll spend the rest of my day seeking an answer in people’s opinions or other things.

The Meaning Crisis: Does my work even matter?

“Is this really what I’m supposed to be doing with my life??”Do you have those moments of doubt? I sure do! At the end of the day I sometimes find myself asking, “Oh come on. Really? This is all I do? Does it even matter?”

Stop Climbing! The Secret to Getting Closer to God

I mean, I know the common 'wisdom' that the spiritual life involves ascending to heaven and escaping this mortal world. It’s right there in the word, “spirituality!” Obviously, I need to climb the ladder to connect with God, right?

Napping can be a prayer and a "sacrament"

Here’s a true story from one of our retreat attendees:I spread my blanket in a sunny spot in the woods, lay down stiffly and said, “Ok Jesus. Instead of praying, I’m going to take a nap now. Will you still be here when I wake up?”
