    Everywhere Jesus went, people had the opportunity to come near to him. He was the walking, living, and breathing Son of God. He was the Savior, the One. But yet, not everyone believed. Jesus called the crowds to him and said, follow me ALL who are weary. Jesus chose 12 people to invest in and…

    An infinite God can give all of Himself to each of His children. He does not distribute Himself that each may have a part, but to each one He gives all of Himself as fully as if there were no others. – Aiden Wilson Tozer

    Because you are killing it by not being social. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, social media is only what you make it. If you and I see social media as a way to promote a brand or just push a blog, we’re missing the point. It’s about so much more than…

  • Stupid Grace

    I was reading through the story of Joseph a couple of days ago… the part where he takes care of his brothers after he has the power… and had this thought… It makes no sense that Joseph would take care of his brothers.

    I am not a photographer. One of my hobbies, though, is taking pictures with my iPhone. When the opportunity arises or I see a good chance to get an Instagram photo, I’ll take a picture of just about anything in just about any situation. I’ve gotten fairly good at recognizing when a good time to…

    Everyone is looking for answers. No matter who you are, what you do, or where you go, there are questions that you want answers to. Whether those questions are deep and thoughtful questions, or they’re just random “why doesn’t glue stick to the inside of the bottle?” type questions, we all want answers (Now you’re…

    “I never got this far in my dreams.” Those were the words Bubba Watson said to Jim Nantz during an interview after Bubba Watson won his first ever Master’s this past Sunday. I was watching the interview at the time and heard Watson say those words and immediately thought… what happens when we live beyond…
