John Kennedy once said "It is an unfortunate fact that we can secure peace only by preparing for war." The context of his statement was in the heart of the "Cold War" between the United States and the Soviet Union, but the sentiment actually applies very well to the spiritual warfare we are all called…

Have you ever thought about all those people Jesus healed during His ministry here on earth? They were so happy, grateful, and changed. In some cases (the illness of leprosy) they were now free to rejoin society, be reunited with their families, and finally, get their life back. They went on to live their lives.…

There's something comforting about being with Another Who is stronger than you and seems to know where He is going. There…

I’m not a big, outdoorsy, guy. So, camping out was never something I really enjoyed, except for this one time. Me and my best friend, Mark, had a great “fort” in the woods near our apartment complex in Orlando when I was about 11 or 12. Being central Florida, the pine trees in these woods…
