The Mind of Christ: Excellence and Critical Thinking as Worship
In a recent conversation with my youngest, we discussed the concepts of excellence and critical thinking. It struck me deeply how these two qualities are vital in everyday life and rooted in our identity as children of God. Excellence, in the sense that our Heavenly Father has uniquely gifted each of us, calls us to […]
The Parable of the Wise and Foolish Virgins
In Matthew 25:1-13, Jesus shares the parable of the ten virgins, five wise and five foolish, waiting for the bridegroom to arrive.

Embracing the True Life of Christ
“Then He said to them all: ‘Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me.’” – Luke 9:23 In today’s world, holiness is often distorted and portrayed as aesthetically pleasing. We are seeing the rise of unrighteousness and a self-centered mindset, with people becoming “lovers of […]
Contending for the Faith: Staying Strong Against Deception
In a recent conversation with a fellow believer, I was informed that over 30 million people have left the Christian faith in the past ten years. As someone who loves numbers and facts, I decided to investigate this claim further. What I discovered was quite different. Reports indicate that over the past 25 years, around […]
Divine Decision Making
Last week on the blog, we explored the creative nature of God through artistic expression. Today, I feel led to discuss a topic that is both delicate and deeply meaningful: embracing divine decisions in our lives.

Embracing the Creative Expressions of Elohim
Embracing the Creative Expressions of Elohim As I sit and reflect on the beauty that surrounds us, I am awestruck by the vibrant colors painted across the sky, the intricate designs of nature, and the harmonious sounds that fill the air.

The Unnamed but Impactful Influence of Mrs. Noah
For the past few years, I have been drawn to the biblical figure of Mrs. Noah—unnamed yet profoundly influential. Have you ever wondered about her?

I Will Never Leave You Nor Forsake You
“I will never leave you nor forsake you.” I love to read. More specifically, I love to read autobiographies and stories connected to historical events with pivotal moments that reshaped culture, Christianity, the economy, and the world.

Love Lifted Me
As a child, I learned a hymn that continually reminds me of the power of love: “Love Lifted Me.” One line in the song that stands out the most is, “When nothing else could help, love lifted me.” There are moments in our lives when being conscious of this reality becomes the very essence of […]

Celebrating Fatherhood
The Identity of a Father What comes to mind when you hear the word “Father”? For me, it evokes the image of a steadfast figure bringing provision and hope. It represents the origins of humanity, a place where life begins from an existential perspective. Father! According to the Bible, a Father is the “head or […]
