Where’s the Joy?
Christians should be the most joyful people on Earth. Millions of Christians all across the nation and around the world have claimed to washed by the blood of Jesus Christ and born again by the Spirit, yet they are robotically plodding along living humdrum middle-class lives and just “don’t have it.” There’s no infectious enthusiasm and no heart overflowing.

Book Review – Driven By Eternity by John Bevere
I’m doing a review for the audiobook version of Driven by Eternity from Audible.com. John Bevere’s Driven by Eternity: Making Your Life Count Today & Forever is not for the spiritually squeamish. Yet it contains a message that has eternal consequences for everyone.

The Bible Inspirations Project
If you didn’t know, I sometimes use my graphic design skills to create shareable images, Facebook cover photos and graphics for social media sites like Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram and others with Bible verses and quotations based on love, salvation, encouragement, prayer, the Christian life and more.
