For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast, for we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for GOOD WORKS, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them. (Ephesians 2:10) I started out this…

We Are Better Together

No driver wins a NASCAR race on their own. To accomplish great things we all need others and a supporting cast to help us succeed and reach our goals.

A couple of days ago I was listening to the Book of Matthew on CD while driving around town. My attention wasn’t completely on what I was listening to. I could hear what was being read from God’s Word, but I wasn’t entirely focusing on it. All of a sudden, these words were as…

I’ll start this by saying I love spending time with my bride and our kids. I love time playing games with them. Whether it be a thoughtful game of BananaGrams, a feisty game of Dutch Blitz or a bruising game of Spoons; I love playing with them. In the summer we try to play…

Last year I started my own graphic design business called 1913 Designs with the purpose of helping churches and small ministries with any graphic design needs they may have. I’m often asked what the 1913 stands for. It’s based on a piece of scripture that has meant a lot to me in the past two…

Firstfruits

Hopefully, you’re aware of the concept of firstfruits. It’s mentioned throughout scripture. It’s the concept of giving God his portion before all else. We practice this in our marriage with our finances. Before the cable bill is paid or groceries are purchased, we set aside our tithe to God. It’s His. Scripture is peppered with…

I have felt led to write about expectations for the past week, but as I put my hands on the keyboard nothing was flowing. That is until I thought about Beck. She’s only 29. All of the plans she had are now in jeopardy. She could be gone…tomorrow. As I write this, my sister-in-law Becky…

“Can u guys come for supper one night this week??” That’s what the text said. Our friends invited us over for dinner. It’s always fun to share a meal with friends. Great conversation, timely stories, and often a good belly laugh makes the time enjoyable. Many of the times that I cherish most in my…
