Giving God the Scraps
So, my title might be a little deceiving. This is not a post about how we shouldn't give God just our scraps meaning we shouldn't just give God what we have left in our day or of our time. While that would be a good post, that's not what I'm writing about right now.I'm talking …

The Valley of Vision
One of my favorite devotional books is "The Valley of Vision", a collection of Puritan prayers compiled by Arthur Bennett. The prayers, hymns and devotions in that book are so raw and honest and humble; I can't help but read them over and over just so that maybe my prayer life would one day reach …
He’ll Love Us To The End

Our Untamable God
Last Sunday at church we sang "Indescribable" by Chris Tomlin. I don't know how many times I've sung that song but I know it well. It's a great song about how God is so big and so awesome that our human vocabulary fails to describe Him adequately. Like I said, I've sung the song hundreds …
We All Need THE Doctor
Medicine and doctor visits have been on the brain in our household lately. With a new baby, there are lots of visits, shots, insurance phone calls and the like that take place on a daily basis it feels like. On top of that, we are looking at some specialist visits and possibly surgery for our …
