This time of year we like to reminisce about 9/11 and honor those who lost their lives in 2001. It’s great that we remember and pay reverence to that day in our history. Yet, I wonder if we’ve lost reverence in our everyday lives.

If Satan can’t tempt us to sin in the usual carnal ways of the world, he will fill our to-do lists with “good deeds” to the point that we neglect our true callings.

As the oldest child, for almost four glorious years I had my parents all to myself. Everything revolved around little Kaci, which I now know wasn’t such a good thing. Then, something shifted in my universe when my mom brought home a new baby girl. The rest of my adolescence was defined by a love-hate…

For a while I worked in Christian publishing. During that time I took a few seminary courses online, and one of them was Apologetics. This class intrigued me most, because it went over the various biblical ways we can use to defend our religion. It’s important to know enough facts to back up what you…

I’m pretty happy with my life these days. So happy, that I would say I didn’t know I wanted anything more until it was dangled in front of my face. Kind of like how you don’t know you want a new car until your next door neighbor drives home in one and invites you over to admire…
Read moreQuestioning Your Calling (Literally)
Of course the most important part of finding what you were put on this earth to do is to listen to God. The hard part is that He doesn’t usually burn down bushes and speak from the sky like He did in the Old Testament days. He often speaks to us through situations, circumstances and…

Regardless of your race, gender, age, location, personality, occupation, NCAA allegiance, or any other defining factor, all Christians have one thing in common. We want to know why God put us on this Earth. Of course the short and always right answer would be to spread His Word and help others. That above all else…

I admit I’m a little late, but I finally saw War Room for the first time last night. It was a really good movie, not just for the message but surprisingly for the acting and story too. I was proud of my girl Priscilla Shirer, who was as every bit funny and she is when preaching…

Tonight at church our women’s group took turns each sharing our favorite Bible verse. I have a lot of special verses that mean a lot to me but I chose to share Psalm 139:14: “I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.” This particular…

It was the usual devotional snapshot circulating around Facebook. I sometimes share them too (minus the “type Amen” or “share if you love Jesus” disclaimers). But something about this one caught my eye, and it happens to say a lot about how a lot of Christians think. I don’t know who shared this image for…
