If there is power in prayer, why do so many of us only offer up quick pleas for help or shortsighted lists of requests? It's because we've lost the biblical vision of what prayer really is: an exciting, risky, faith-filled journey that pushes the limitations of our imaginations because we have unprecedented intimacy with the Creator of the universe.
With his trademark blend of honesty and encouragement that's made him a social media favorite, pastor...

I Am Strong by John Dickerson is the link between your weakness and God's strength. Can we believe that? You call out to God. Your problems get worse. You suffer and wait for him. And you continue to just wait. It's what Paul called the thorn in the flesh that bothers us day and night. But Paul learned a special secret about life, which you too can learn. He learned to let weakness be the inlet for God's strength to rush into his life. "When I am...

Does having faith mean abandoning reason? It's easy to get that impression. Still, it seems reasonable that a supremely intelligent God would want you to use your God-given intellect on your spiritual journey as much as in any other aspect of your life. Faith may not stand on rational thinking alone, but a solid faith should walk hand in hand with intellectual integrity. Does it really matter what I believe? What is the relationship between faith...

However, soul pain affects both the human body and the soul. Overlooked, misunderstood, and difficult to imagine, soul pain is often ignored and disregarded as a source of concern. Yet, soul pain can impact the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual states of humanity....

"What are you giving up for Lent?" we are asked. Our minds begin to whirl: Chocolate? Designer coffee? Social media? Forty days later, some feel disappointed in their efforts (it was a limited-time blend . . .), some feel surprised by their success (didn't even miss it . . .), but perhaps precious few feel spiritually renewed. Can such fasts alone truly prepare us to celebrate Easter? Or any other chosen time of reflection during the year? Or could...

The gods cannot be trusted!
Before I came into ministry, I was a practicing lawyer, and I will never forget this experience my colleague and I had. One fine day we were at work when a strange woman walked in seeking legal assistance. I call her strange because she was unlike any client we had ever attended to. She was barefooted, wrapped in white calico cloth as pertains to a fetish priestess, with matching white beads on her ankles and the typical...
