Most of us know the story of Jesus walking on water out to His disciples who were panically rowing in a sweeping storm.

When Fear & Faith Collide
Most of us struggle with fear, worry and anxiety at times. This is just a part of life, but we don't have to allow our fears to keep us in a cage. I recall when I was younger being very shy. And of course, being shy, I rarely spoke. This made me "different" from the …
Ruthlessly Eliminating Hurry
I heard a story of a pastor who was experiencing tremendous church growth. However, the pastor realized the joy of this blessing could be stolen if not stewarded well. So, to help ensure he was doing all he could to be a good steward of God's church and the growth He was sending, he called …

Various scenarios in my life have helped me realize and understand that the source of all my provisions isn't my job, my abilities, my paycheck, or who I know. Rather, it is God, and He alone is the One who sustains us through all circumstances, meets our needs and sharpens our faith. As a result, …
