Pleasing God
Let them shout for joy and be glad, Who favor my righteous cause; And let them say continually, “Let the LORD be magnified, Who has pleasure in the prosperity of His servant.” (Psalms 35:27 NKJV)
I don’t know about you, but ever since I can remember, it has always been in my heart to please God. [...]
We Decided We Were Going to Win
My wife and I were watching the Olympics a few nights ago, and something we saw has stuck in my mind ever since. I can’t say with absolute certainty, because a few days have gone by — and quite a few celebratory interviews with athletes have too — but I’m nearly positive it was the [...]
Christians, Wealth and Money
“A good man leaves an inheritance to his children’s children….” (Proverbs 13:22a NKJV)
Off and on for the past few years, I’ve returned to this subject in my personal study. Whether ministering from the pulpit or working with entrepreneurs and businesspeople in the context of business, the idea that we — as Christians — struggle more [...]
The Internal Struggle
I remember clearly the day I sat across from my good friend over a cup of coffee in a local restaurant. We had met early in the morning to talk about some of the challenges we faced in profitability in our businesses. He, the CEO of a software company servicing clients on multiple continents, and [...]
Calming the Inner Storm, Part 2
Roll your works upon the Lord [commit and trust them wholly to Him; He will cause your thoughts to become agreeable to His will, and] so shall your plans be established and succeed.
(Proverbs 16:3 AMP)
Last time, we talked about anxiety, stress, and a foreboding that can sometimes overtake our hearts and leave us flustered. As [...]
Calming the Inner Storm
“These are the times that try men’s souls.” — Thomas Paine, The Crisis
Anxiety. Worry. Concern. Fear.
All too often, these are the “norm” in times of crisis. Perhaps even worse, they are the norm in times of perceived crisis.
Regardless of whether you’re facing a very real and authentic crisis right now, we live in an environment [...]
Recession or Opportunity?
Check out Michael Pink’s comments today on the recession of 2008. I can’t tell you how strongly I feel about the notion that it is time to get out of debt. In fact, some recent interviews with people who have tremendous expertise in banking and law have led me to believe that this [...]

The Government Upon His Shoulders
This time of year, we frequently quote the prophecy concerning the birth of Our Lord which was immortalized in song by George Frideric Handel in The Messiah. The passage, lifted from the first few verses of Isaiah Chapter 9, reads:
For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given; and the government [...]
The Importance of Financial Increase
Have you ever noticed that pursuing your dreams takes money?
We’ve talked previously in this setting about the notion that God is ultimately the giver of dreams (Psalm 37:4) and how that I believe that when we’re talking about these dreams that are rooted in the deepest places of our hearts, God gives them to us. [...]
