What to Do When You Don’t Know the Way Forward
“Lord, I don’t know what to do—but my eyes are on You.” There are moments in life when the path ahead vanishes. No signs. No map. No clarity. Just fog.

Grace in the Tabernacle: When the Church Chooses Redemption
Growing up, one of the highlights of my year was church camp. Our denomination owned a rustic campground nestled in the woods, the kind of place that felt frozen in time. At the center of it all stood a large barn-like structure we called “the Tabernacle.” Surrounded by rows of humble cabins, it was the…

Still Standing: When God’s Promises Seem Delayed
A Follow-Up to “Promises, Promises” In the last post, we explored the deep well of promises that God offers to His people—promises of provision, presence, restoration, strength, and a future filled with hope.

For God and Country: Remembering the Sacrifice
I was driving through a quiet residential neighborhood—neatly trimmed lawns, retired couples walking dogs, the gentle hush of late afternoon. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary—until I saw the boots. They were lined with solemn precision along the corner of a modest property. A single pair of boots for each fallen soldier. Next to every…

Faithful Allegiance: Honoring Service Without Idolizing the Nation
In America, we honor those who serve in the armed forces. And rightly so. Men and women in uniform willingly put themselves in harm’s way to protect others. They exhibit courage, discipline, sacrifice, and an unwavering commitment to a cause greater than themselves. These are virtues the Christian faith also upholds—though expressed in a different…
