Don’t Compartmentalize Your Christianity

The next time you’re standing in your kitchen, bedroom, or at your desk, I want you to look at drawers. Yes, drawers. The place where you store cutlery, clothes, or staplers and pens. Sadly, many people who call themselves Christians live functionally compartmentalized lives. Whether they realize it or not, they have divided their lives neatly into two drawers: real life and spiritual life. The real life drawer is the one they dig into frequently and are most comfortable... Read More

How To Become A Better Theologian

Between the “already” of our conversion and the “not yet” of our final home going, few things are more important in our Christian life than a practical and functional level of biblical literacy. But if you’re anything like me, disciplining ourselves to increase that literacy will be a struggle. So here are four more reasons to study the Bible, even when you don’t “feel” like it: Gospel Worldview You are a theologian. Not an academic... Read More

My Embarrassing 2020 Confession

I have a confession to make. It’s embarrassing and humbling, but I’m willing to make it publicly. Why am I disclosing this struggle? Because first, there is nothing you could discover about me that hasn’t already been covered by the blood of Jesus. And second, I know I’m not the only one who wrestles with it. I hope by making this statement, I encourage you to be honest as well. Here’s the confession: I’m not always excited or motivated to read the... Read More

The Only Bible Reading Plan You Need

I’m sure by now that you’ve received a dozen emails, Facebook posts, or push notifications encouraging you to start a Bible reading plan for 2020. Praise God! I love how technology has evolved to place the Word of God in front of us all the time and everywhere! But I have a confession to make: reading the Bible consistently this year will be a challenge. Like it has been every year... So go ahead and pick your next Bible reading plan, but you’re going to need the... Read More

God Knows No Time

How did you ring in 2020? I don’t mean how did you celebrate on New Year’s Eve or what are your plans for January 1. Spiritually and theologically, how are you ringing in the New Year? What are you preaching to yourself about the year gone by and the year to come? What are you facing this year that you wish you could avoid? Where would you like to take back choices and redo decisions from last year? What about 2020 makes you feel troubled, inadequate, weak,... Read More

Change The Way You See Baby Jesus

When you picture the little Lord Jesus laying down his sweet head in a manger in Bethlehem, do you see a warrior? Christmas is a violent war story. It has to be, because life on this side of eternity is spiritual warfare. Rebellion raises its ugly head then grace comes down darkness covers creation’s light then grace comes down thorns and disease infect then grace comes down people lie and cheat then grace comes down desires lead astray then grace comes down image-bearers...

Sing These Hymns Before Christmas

Human beings sing. We can’t stop singing. If you listen carefully, you will notice that we tend to sing about what has captured our hearts. What has captured your heart this Christmas? We have no better reason to sing than this: The Savior is born to live, die, and rise again to fix what sin has broken! God commands us to sing (see Ephesians 5:18–19 and Colossians 3:16), so I want to share excerpts from my six favorite Christmas hymns with you and your family. Read the... Read More

My Favorite Christmas Bible Verse

Someone asked me the other day which Scripture passage was the best to share with their family at Christmas. That’s like cornering me and demanding I publicly declare which of my four children I love most. It’s an impossible question, but the passage I return to most is Isaiah 9:6. “For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince...

Have Yourself A Christ-Centered Christmas

I love the sights, sounds, colors, and tastes of Christmas. I enjoy the gifts, decorations, and delicacies unique to December just as much as anyone. But perhaps I love them too much; maybe I love this month for all the wrong reasons. Have you noticed that the entire message of this season has become about acquiring created stuff? How sad: the glory of Christmas is that the Creator himself becomes a man, to rescue us from our bondage to the creation! Yet here we are, celebrating... Read More
