Sometimes the diagnosis really is uncertain. The financial pressure is real. T...

Still Plugged In?

In this episode of Digging Another Well , we look at 2 Timothy 3:...

The Gallows Haman Built What the Enemy Builds for Your Destruction Has a Way of Becoming His Own Haman was so certain of Mordecai’s destruction that he built the ending before the story was finished.

The King’s Sleepless Night When God Uses the Ordinary to Change Everything Sometimes the most significant move of God does not look supernatural at all. There is no angel. No burning bush.

King Ahasuerus spends a restless night and asks for th...

Haman — The Danger of Unchecked Pride Haman had wealth, status, influence, and the favor of the king. Yet none of it was enough because one man refused to bow.

Pride can take everything God has allowed us to accomplish and make it feel worthless because of the one thing—or person—we cannot control. In to...
