Jesus came up to a dude who had been lame for 38 years, and asked, “Do you want to get well?” Obviously someone in pain, physical, mental or emotional wants to get well, right? But do they? Do we? I always thought this was a strange question until I encountered it on a very personal level.

Do you find yourself distracted by much serving? I know I do. And it is usually all good stuff! Let's take a quick look at how Jesus sees our serving and our level of distraction.

The term discipleship may be intimidating to many, but Angie and I spend this episode breaking it down. Friends, salvation is just the beginning of the journey.

No one else can tell your story…These were the words the Lord spoke to Teresa Whiting's heart as she prepared to write a women's Bible study. But Teresa's is a story of sexual brokenness. It is messy and she didn't think her story would make for great Bible study material. Yet as she leaned into this thought the Lord brought her to the stories of six women in scripture with deep sexual wounds. Whether something done to you or brokenness resulting from your own poor choices, sexual brokenness comes in many packages. And whether or not sexual brokenness is part of your story you will find great insight into the heart of God for His people, messiness and all. Teresa's new study, “Graced: How God Redeems and Restores the Broken” is sure to fan the flames of your faith. And if this topic makes you want to run in the other direction, I challenge you, push play and sit with this for a bit. The path to healing doesn't have to be harsh. Teresa offers a path to gentle restoration. In her you will find a dear friend and compassionate guide to walk with you on your journey to wholeness….because God is a Healer of the broken, a Redeemer of the lost, a Restorer of dreams and a Giver of hope, in Whose hands no hurt is ever in vain. I encourage you to get your hands on this new Bible study. Don't wait! Buy it now, and begin your path to restoration, wholeness, and a deeper understanding of the Father's great love for you and plans to use your story….mess and all!

Ever struggle to get motivated? Yes! Me. All the time. I know it's true that once you get started things will pick up momentum.

“It was necessary for Him to go through Samaria.”   Why did these words make me cry? Why did a phrase so easily overlooked, seemingly insignificant grab me at my core until my eyes burned and my breath came out in a whispered, “Thank you, Jesus.”   Friend, YOU are necessary. In this short phrase above Jesus proved once and for all that what the world may see as a lost cause He considers to be absolutely vital! Join me for this episode as we unpack this tiny line I highlighted many years ago. I truly believe you will find it to be a discovery well worth your time.   I invite you to join me for “Life in the Highlights,” a truly random journey where we will crack open my Bible and see what truths jump out at us from scripture I have highlighted days, weeks, or even years earlier. This series won't be predictable or even without interruption. It will undoubtedly be full of fiery detours and inspiring interviews. But in the in-between, we will land together in the increasingly worn pages of my study Bible as we look at life-giving, soul-transforming verses we discover accented in a rainbow of colors.

Once your faith is in Him and not yourself you can act motivated by love not striving to earn love. When you know it is by grace through faith in Jesus that you are forgiven and united with God, you can stop trying so hard. Take a deep breath.

My friends, there is power in the stillness. It is in the quiet – in the peace – that we can most accurately reflect the glory of our God. If you feel your soul is a jumbled, turbulent mess I beg you, make the time to be still. Still waters reflect perfectly the image of the sun. Raging waters reflect nothing. When my soul is still and at peace I can beautifully reflect the image of the Son to the world around me, but when my soul within me is turbulent and tossing there's no reflection at all. It's merely a churning mess.
