Most of us want others to be honest with us in all situations. At least that is what we say. What about when the truth is hard? Life-changing? Some truths are easier to hear and accept than others. However, if the truth is truth, then it is always what we need to hear. One of… Continue reading A Hard Truth

What are You Building With?
If you are a born-again child of God, you already have a firm foundation: the Lord Jesus Christ. How you build from there is up to you. 1 Corinthians 3:12-15, “Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble; Every man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day… Continue reading What are You Building With?
Living in an Instantaneous Society
In the world we live in, so many things are instant.

Too many of us are just doing our own thing, living… Continue reading Don’t Worship the Wrong Table
Intimacy in Marriage: Part 3
Go above and beyond for your spouse without expecting anything in return. Simply seek to be a blessing to them just because you love them. I have never heard a man complain that his wife made his favorite meal, set his clothes out for work the next day, or gave him a nice foot rub… Continue reading Intimacy in Marriage: Part 3
Intimacy in Marriage: Part 2
One simple step we can take is to create a space that welcomes intimacy. Your bedroom should always be kept tidy. An unmade bed with piles of laundry on it will not set the tone for intimacy. I have a personal rule that laundry doesn’t get folded in my room. Baskets do not get dumped… Continue reading Intimacy in Marriage: Part 2

Submission is a word that carries a negative connotation in the time we live in. If this isn’t a word you are very familiar with, your first thoughts may be something like slavery and oppression. If you are familiar with this word, you may have your own opinions of how to carry it out or… Continue reading Why is Submission Different?
