If God is a comfort, he’s more luxurious than fine silk or Egyptian cotton.
If God is an invention, he’s more innovative than the wheel or the lightbulb or the iPod.
If God is a phantom, he’s more alluring than the girl of my dreams.
If God is a concept, he’s more fantastic than democracy or capitalism or [...]
I’ve been thinking I need to find a useable way to be able to do Bible study while on my long bus commutes, since trying to carry a big Bible around and hold it open when typing notes is pretty wacky in such a tight space. So, in a “duh” moment, I decided to search [...]
I’ve come to the staggering conclusion that I don’t pray enough. I say that with a wry grin on my face because it’s not like it’s the first time I’ve realized that! The thing that keeps biting me in the rear is my propensity to getting sucked into playing around on the computer. It’s pretty [...]
One thing that’s struck me as I’ve been down here at the Doing Business Supernaturally conference put on by Extreme Prophetic is that so many people I’ve met are in a state to bless me. Notice I didn’t say “state of blessing”. I think sometimes we focus way too much on trying to be in [...]
I don’t know about you, but out of curiosity and whim, I’ve tried a number of times to “stop thinking” and park my brain and leave the “engine idling” there for a while, and I just can’t do it. Maybe if you’re a Zen master it’s possible, but not for me. Within seconds my internal [...]
Must ado has been made about the revealing of Mother Teresa’s “Dark Night of the Soul” as some people have been calling it. In a nutshell, the major topic of debate has been over whether it’s appropriate or wise to serve God and follow His commandments without any active sense of God’s presence in one’s [...]
Is there a price to pay for getting whatever you want and having whatever you need? There most certainly is, and it’s called boredom. And apparently boredom is one of the unfortunate outcomes of our overstuffed, overfed, consumerist Western lifestyle.
Reading this article about the modern phenomena of boredom, I recall the stories I’ve heard of [...]
I believe 2007 is a year of victory for God’s people. I felt it strongly in the beginning of this year, and I specifically had a premonition that stuff was really going to start popping in August. Many of the prophetic voices I trust had a lot to say about this year on the topic, [...]
Wow, I just read this impassioned post (more like a combination of hard-hitting essay and a cry of desperation) by Adrian Warnock over in the U.K., and it struck to the heart of everything that’s been rumbling through my head the past few months. I too want it all. I hate all the individual extremes [...]
I believe God is wanting to tell us in the Church that His Church is already out there. He’s already preparing hearts and minds. He’s already calling individuals and communities to come to Him. Dreams, visions, revelations — the atmosphere is pregnant with heavenly possibilities. We simply need to see where God is moving and [...]
