Have you ever sat down for your daily devotions to meditate on the genealogies of Scripture? Just saying that seems odd, but if you attempted it, I think you’d be pleasantly surprised by what you find.

God’s Greenhouse: Growing People God’s Way
God’s Greenhouse takes us back to the basics — growing believers who then grow the Church. A framework is provided to help any pastor, or leader, to get their church grounded on scriptural fundamentals, and working together to accomplish the Great Commission.
The Guardhouse
Every day we are bombarded with messages, some true and some false. The books we read, movies we see, television shows we watch, social media we use, and content we view online all bang at the guardhouse of our heart, demanding entrance . . . itching to set up camp. That’s why we “must” guard our heart above all else.
A Perfect Verse for Aging
As we age our bones begin to crackle and ache. New pains come uninvited to remind us we are growing older. Friends pass and sorrow grabs our heart. But in all of this David shares how we can find comfort.

The Pastor’s Personal Life: Part 7 – Your Spirit
Ministry is hard. It’s so easy to make excuses. “I can’t take time to pray and read the Bible right now. The people need me!” We can even feel noble about the sacrifices we are making for the sake of our church. But God said obedience is better than sacrifice. That includes obeying God commands to wait on the Lord and be filled with God’s Spirit.
Disaster: Betting the Farm on God in Life’s Storms
Has a hurricane-sized disaster ripped through your life? Do you ever feel stale in your soul and lack adventure in life?
Have circumstances sucker-punched you and fear bogged you down? Not anymore!
Who I Don’t Want To Be
Within the story of the Hebrew people, Sampson becomes an antithetical example. He was special from the beginning. He is God’s man. He is divinely gifted. He has a calling and a purpose. Yet, all he does is act foolishly, get himself into trouble, and live selfishly. Sound like anyone you know?
