EVERY RUNNER KNOWS..... that if you don't have a good pace, then you won’t finish strong. You'll burn out, fall way behind, or maybe just quit altogether. When it comes to your faith, the same is true: You need a healthy pace. You and I need healthy rhythms that will lead to a healthy spiritual life, because if we don’t, we too can fall into exhaustion, apathy, and ultimately defeat. This week, I...

DO YOU LIKE BEING COMFORTABLE? I sure do, especially when the weather is just right, the food is tasty, and the company is exceptional.  Everyone likes being comfortable, and there's nothing wrong with that... Except when pursuing comfort becomes the goal. As followers of Jesus, we are never told to chase comfort; instead, we are called to follow Christ. One will lead to an abundant life, and the...

GROWING UP IN OKLAHOMA, I vividly remember summer days that were so hot you didn't want to do ANYTHING except lie in the shade and drink sweet tea! This week, we launch our "Dog Days of Summer" series, where we'll explore the conditions that cause us to become apathetic in our faith and how to overcome the temptation to call it quits. From the Front Porch to the Front Lines! The heartbeat of Churc...

SINCE THE 90'S.... That's how long Kitri and I have known the Brogdens, and for as long as I've known them, they have had one driving ambition: to reach the unreached with the message of the Gospel in the most challenging and dangerous places in the world. THEY HAVE ALSO BEEN INCREDIBLY SUCCESSFUL AT IT. I vividly remember reading the early reports, "Letters From Narnia," and thinking, "i want to...

LIFE CAN SOMETIMES BE A MESS... and if you are a mother, you know this is especially true. The reality is that throughout life, we find ourselves in messy situations, whether that's with our relationships, our parenting, our finances, etc. So the question is not, "How do I avoid messy situations?" but rather, "How do I find meaning in those messy moments, and what does the Lord want to speak to me...

Have you ever set a lofty goal, reached it, only to discover that it did not satisfy you in the way you were sure it would? Over the years, I have discovered the real reason I often feel so apathetic when I’ve finally arrived. It is because the destination, the project, or the product was never the right goal to begin with. Rather, what they produce is what matters. Connection, experiences, and pe...

Is God calling you to take a step of faith for your one more? Who will be sitting in that one more seat that you’ve been praying about? So often, when you start making progress towards what God is calling you to, the mockers start making noise. In the book of Nehemiah, we see that Nehemiah sees his position, possessions, and talents as gifts from God to be used for the good of others. One thing is...

When God puts a burden in our heart, it often can be our defining moment. For Nehemiah, it certainly was. When he found out that Jerusalem was still in ruins, and the people were in despair, it gripped him. It shifted something in his heart. He was given a burden for his city and his people. But what we will discover this week is how God turned that burden into a breakthrough for Nehemiah and the...
