Considering the time in which we’re living (political heat, racial tension, COVID pandemic), “Tithemi” should become our daily prayer and lifestyle.

Another start to the week, and another addition to the Music Monday library. Today we’re listening to “Glorious” from the band Nine Lashes.

For Music Monday we’re listening to “No Hold On Me” by Matty Mullins. I believe this song is his freedom song and is powerful for anyone struggling.

I’ve listened to this song a lot over the years. The more I listen to it the more I’ve come to realize how true the words are of me and my life.

The Enneagram has been a hot topic around my house. Should it have a place in the Christian life or is it a wolf in sheep’s clothing?

There is a hole in your life. You might think I’m crazy, but I know it’s there. We crave anything we can find to fill it. We attempt to fill this hole with money, success, people, games, lust, alcohol, drugs, education, science, anything, everything.

Stories bind us. Stories captivate us. Stories move us. Stories relate us to each other. This is only the beginning of my story. Two true stories from my life where I was saved. One from the spiritual world, one from the physical world, both connected

This song speaks to me on a deeper level with friends I know have experienced times of great need and when there was nowhere left to go, on their knees they went

This is just a post. You could just read it and see for yourself. If you choose to read it, you just might get something out of it. Perhaps, you just might enjoy it. Maybe it’s just for fun.

I have had many ups and downs in my journey through life and faith, but one thing has always stayed consistent, forever unchanging, and always there to pick up the pieces of our brokenness and make us whole again.

Tobymac’s “The Elements” is Ariyana’s “get pumped” song for softball. As a father, I use this as my “stay strong” song for doing life.

Have you ever sold a car because it was dirty? Crazy thought, I know. Does He give you up on you because your life is messy? Some might think so.

The festival was full of fun, excitement, games, and … the rock wall. Little did I know this would be a proving ground for trusting Jesus.

What does it mean to be Faithfully Agile?

What life lesson can we learn from observing lawn birds and freshly cut grass?

Skillet is one of those bands that I have just stuck with through the years and have always been a listening pleasure.

We are all created in His image despite what others may say about you.

The instrumental side of this song is magical. Layer incredible lyrics on top and you have a recipe for a timeless song.

What happens when a classic hymn meets heavy metal?

Andy Mineo is a man who stands, unashamed, by his convictions and is not afraid to speak his mind when it comes to Biblical truths.

RED releases “of Beauty and Rage” to the masses and it does not disappoint.

Everytime I listen to this song something swells inside my soul and I can’t help but get misty-eyed.

I have been bent, broken, and uprooted. Have you?

All in all, when I first heard this song, I was all but broken. It was through my brokenness that God turned my life around.

“In Search Of” is a great depiction of a Holy Father who loves his children even when they have nothing else to give.

Theocracy brings the truth in one of their best symphonic masterpieces.

Manic Bloom has flown under the radar for a long time, but they have now been exposed and they are amazing.

What if you could go to a place where you are accepted for who you are right now? Would you check it out? I know I would.

“Do you have any jumper cables?” Chances are, if you own a car, you can answer yes to that question. Life needs jumper cables too.

This week’s Music Monday is from a band that I have followed for years now. The song is “Shadow Over Me” by Spoken. This song is a great reminder to set your eyes on grace. We must learn to look past the gloom and doom of the day and press on with faith that He is […]

Project 86 is one of my favorite bands. “Fall, Goliath, Fall” is a resounding battle cry to defeat our giants.

The song is a great reflection of how we live our lives.

In honor of Thousand Foot Krutch releasing their new album, here is a link to grab their album or you can listen to it below.

This is another one of my kid’s favorites. The song is “Let Me Drown” by We As Human. The song is off of their self-titled album. I love the lyrics for this song. At times we think we’re invincible. At times we think that we can do it all without Him and that’s how we roll. […]

If you take a quick step back, you can see an incredible life lesson from a simple boogie board.

“Take a bath. Get your pajamas on. Brush your teeth. Okay, let’s sit down. Ariyana, sit in your spot. Maddox… Maddox, c’mon over here and sit in your spot.” This is typically the order of operation every night before my kids hit the sack. There are some variations. We toss in a story or two if […]

I walked beside her as my six and a half year old baby girl, Ariyana, struggled with all her might to man-handle the green, self-propelled Lawn Boy mower.

This particular song really grabbed my attention and the lyrics really speak for themselves. Because I am human, I am a failure to someone. That someone could be my wife, kids, boss, parent, friend, or most of all myself. But even in the midst of my failure, there is one who will never fail and that is […]
