I posted this short video (2:22) back in January of 2010. (Be prepared, I had a beard back then!)
Some folks feel very compelled to try and point out everything they think the Devil is doing. But I would much rather focus my thoughts and expectations on what God is doing, and what He can do to bless our lives. In this short video (2:22), find out why it’s a really good idea to stop looking for the Devil.
Enjoy the video.

You’ve probably heard the old phrase, “God can turn lemons into lemonade.” It basically means you can trust God for His help during difficult times. Lemons are sour, but lemonade is sweet; God can bring you out of a sour situation into sweet deliverance.
But I must admit, I’ve never really liked that phrase. Not that I don’t believe God can help in lousy situations. He certainly has for me on many occasions. But the analogy for me has always been weak because,

Recently, I saw a phrase by C.S Lewis: “Omnipotent moral busybodies.” That sounds a lot like some of the religious people in Jesus Christ’s day. And still today, there are plenty of omnipotent moral busybodies.
”Of all tyrannies a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies…” – C.S. Lewis
The other extreme today in Christianity are Christians who are
I posted this short video pep talk (1:33) a couple of years ago. The message is worth repeating, over and over and over.
Some feel there is no way God could ever forgive them. Nothing could be farther from the truth. God’s arms are always open; God’s love and forgiveness are available for you, right now!

We decided not to tell our children there was a Santa Claus. That was our choice and I certainly don’t judge other parents who decide to go along with the whole Santa thing. It may sound silly to some and even ridiculous to others for us to take that position, but for us, we just didn’t want to have to someday tell them we lied about it.
I do remember one time talking to my daughter, when she was around five, who, because signs and talk of Santa were everywhere, was starting to wonder if Santa was real. I talked truthfully to her and asked her

When I heard the recent US Supreme Court decision regarding marriage, like many Christians, it was not a time of rejoicing, far from it. In a 5-4 decision, the judges redefined an institution that has served humanity for thousands of years. They, by their decision, overturned God’s plan for human beings.
God said, “It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.” He made a woman and brought her unto the man. Forget the Christian bashing; this was long before Christianity. This was God’s plan for human beings from the beginning.
Many people I’ve talked to since that decision
