When we face crises in our lives, God can bring help to us - from a variety of sources. The Bible tells us that we can ask for wisdom, and that wisdom can come through the illumination of Scripture to our minds, perhaps a program or song on Faith Radio, or through people close to us. But, the fact is, God does not hide His wisdom from us. James 1 states:5 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of...  Read More

The Bible instructs us to pray for our leaders, and I am thankful for lawmakers who apply their faith and rely on Godly wisdom to make solid decisions in accordance with Scripture. We should certainly bring our faith to work!  And, we are called to pray for our leaders, so that, in essence, according to 1st Timothy 2, we can actually do that.  The Scriptures say:1 Therefore I exhort first of all t...  Read More

We serve a loving God, a God who provides principles for us to live by.  After Israel fled Egypt, God gave His people a system of laws, some of which have even inspired elements of American Law, so that people may live in peace and order and ultimately know and follow Him.  He also divided Israel into tribes and gave them allotted portions in the Promised Land to which He led them.  Acts 17 provid...  Read More

The Bible offers us a roadmap not only regarding how to be saved and enter into a relationship with Jesus, but provides principles on which we can build our lives. It is the instruction manual that can provide direction and motivate us to be bold and courageous in our Christian walk.  The Lord spoke to Joshua, someone whom He had appointed to leadership over the people of Israel, in Joshua chapter...  Read More

In many cases, you could say there is a difference between our calling and our vocation.  For instance, God has called me to speak His truth, to be a communicator.  And, I have been blessed to be able to do that for well over three decades at Faith Radio.  In whatever occupation, you can use your skills and talents to glorify God and seek His purpose.  But, there may be something outside of that j...  Read More

Because we know Jesus, we have His Spirit who resides in our hearts - giving us the power to live a vibrant Christian life, a life of obedience in which we testify to His presence within us - He enables us togives us authority over the enemy and to display the victory that Jesus has won for us.  Colossians 3 describes how our lives can look:12 Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put ...  Read More

Each generation has its choice - to follow the ways of God or to depart from His principles. Not long after the Israelites came into the promised land, a new generation arose that did not know the Lord.  And, they paid the consequences - they did, as the Bible says, what was right in their own eyes.  It's important that we transmit our Christian faith principles to the next generation.  1st John 2...  Read More

In a culture that promotes sexual deviancy - whether it is sexual activity outside of marriage, or infidelity, or same-sex marriage and sexual relationships, the propensity to break God's laws and violate His standards is all around us. We are called to uphold what the Bible teaches on marriage, and recognize that is an essential part of His plan for humanity. The Bible says in Hebrews 13:4 Marria...  Read More

When the Bible tells us to pray without ceasing, that is reliable instruction for us. So often, we try to work things out on our own without relying on the power of Almighty God. But, He desires for us to partner with Him, call upon His name, and see Him do incredible things. 1st Thessalonians 5 states:16 Rejoice always,17 pray without ceasing,18 in everything give thanks; for this is the will of ...  Read More

The Bible has much to say about our speech - we are to speak truthfully, in a manner that is constructive, and produces fruit for the Kingdom of God. We should always strive to speak in a way that glorifies our Savior, and the Bible warns us about the importance of taming the tongue. I believe these concepts extend to other forms of communication, as well, including what is written. This passage f...  Read More
