Episodes

  1. Standards

    I suppose most people will tell you, “Of course I have standards!” But watching their lives, it seems more probable that they have what I call mobile standards, meaning their standards change day by day ... One to read :: https://livinginhisname.org/standards/ Support :: Venmo | Living In His…

  2. Take The Time

    In the “hurry up” world lifestyle in which many of us live, it seems more and more often that fewer take the time to comfort, help, or even think about the state of things. “I’m late, I’m late for a very important date. No time to say hello, good-bye, I’m late, I’m late, I’m late!” Continue…

  3. Understanding

    Proverbs 4:5 - “Get wisdom! Get understanding!”, and again in vs 7, “Wisdom is the principal thing. Therefore, get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding.” If we know the facts, but don’t understand what we’ve declared we know ..." One to read ::...

  4. Stewardship of Treasure

    From my perspective, many Christians, including myself, at the very core of their person, find stewardship and accountability frightening, precisely and most exactly because of the high calling of stewardship. It is no small thing. Being responsible for what God … One to read ::...

  5. Beautiful Words

    We have all been invited to meet the Beautiful Friend, in the words of Jesus, to “repent, believe, follow” from Mark 1:14-16. i don’t know about you, but i think most people can’t resist, in the long run, a divine ...

  6. I Am Uncomfortable

    After four years of a man pursuing the Lord for a vision of what He, the Lord, wanted to do, it finally happened, and God gave him a vision and multiple confirmations as to the new direction. So the man … One to read :: https://livinginhisname.org/i-am-uncomfortable/ Support :: Venmo | Living In...

  7. Trepidation Nation

    Trepidation: a nervous or fearful feeling of uncertain agitation, or apprehension. I liked this definition too, “reluctantly trembling.” The word carries connotations of disquiet and foreboding about a potential upcoming threat. One to read :: https://livinginhisname.org/trepidation-nation/…

  8. Communion

    It is not merely bread, and not simply a cup, and should never be minimized down to just a “thing we do.” Communion is symbolic and is the God-given means by which... One to read :: https://livinginhisname.org/communion/ Support :: Venmo | Living In His Name Ministries PayPal.Me

  9. Faith vs Fear

    Can you relate to any of the faith-challenging drama in our thinking concerning the back-and-forth bounce that happens in all believers who struggle with faith and fear at the same time?

  10. Home!

    Home: a place of residence or refuge. For believers, home may mean not only the place we live while here on earth, the physical place, as in “Home is where you hang your hat,” but Heaven, our end place with Jesus, as in “Home is where the heart is." One to read…

  12. Under Siege

    In this present day and age, I have come to the conclusion that our Christian faith is under siege. And if that is true, what are we going to do about it? One to read :: https://livinginhisname.org/under-siege/ Support :: Venmo | Living In His Name Ministries PayPal.Me

  15. God Has The Answers

    What do we do with our time? How do we “spend” our moments? We all have time and moments to spend as we determine. They are valuable and whatever we choose to spend them on is a one-time purchase, whether precious or... One to read :: https://livinginhisname.org/god-has-the-answers/ Support ::...

  16. Conflicted

    We spend a lot of time teaching nice principles and only uplifting doctrines from scripture, cycling through our “go to” Bible verses, looking for one to make us feel better about, um, something ‘er other, but we spend almost no time learning to resolve conflict, in a setting where struggle,...

  17. Character Led or Accomplishment Driven

    We think we’re “good people” because we’re being productive. We feel good about life when we have days in which we appear to ourselves as movers and shakers … you know, really “making it happen” so to speak. Corporate world always seems to stage everything for measuring efficiency and…

  19. God's Three Imperatives

  20. A Heart of Compassion

    God was compassionate towards us as fallen mankind, but His Son, Jesus, not only empathized with us, but He also SYMPATHIZED with us. He not only understood our dilemma, but He also joined us in overcoming that dilemma without capitulating to participate in the cause of our dilemma, with the…

  22. Why, Why, Why?

    "Why" is likely one of the most dreaded words for today. We say, “If they’d just …,” -- “If I could only …,” -- “If everyone would …” Shoulda’, woulda’, might’ve … and there’s that slippery little “if.” “If” this, then that. “If” is the foundation of imaginary things, true, but “if” is also among...

  23. Words of Praise

    The sky is clear, I mean not a cloud in the sky this evening, just blue and blue as far as you can see in any direction. As to God’s brilliance about His color – blue – it’s the color of the sky, ocean, sleep, and twilight; blue … One to read :: https://livinginhisname.org/words-of-praise/…

  26. He Is

    Jesus isn’t just a “was”. He isn’t only “here and now” and soon to fade away like a fair-weather friend. He is the Messiah, King of the Universe, the One who eclipses the speed of light, able to be in the past, the present, and the future all at the same time. He has no up, no down, no front nor...

  27. The Value of Honesty

    Honesty is like a magnet radiating a strong magnetic force; in the heart of God’s people it is a clear bell set on a hill; like a clarion call, it draws truth-hungry people to engage. Honesty should be one of our... One to read :: https://livinginhisname.org/the-value-of-honesty-2/ Support…

  29. The Quick and The Dead

    In Isaiah 59:14-15 there are four which go together: justice, righteousness, truth, and honesty. It is not possible to have justice without truth and honesty. Neither is it possible to have Godly kindness without compassion. Wherever justice is, truth and honesty are always nearby. One to read ::...

  30. Of Privilege and Pretense

    God, YHWH, who is rich in mercy is the King of the Universe. What an amazing heart God has toward us, and I mean not just those who believe on His name, but all people.

  32. Personal Holiness

  33. Reference Points and Patterns

    What or Who is the reference point and pattern in your decision-making machine, concerning how to choose and live? What or who governs your appetites? Whoever stands at the helm of your boat has incredible influence concerning where that boat goes, so I must ask, “Who is in your wheelhouse?” We...

  34. Living A Circumspect Life

    Luke 14:28-30, “Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Will he not first sit down and estimate the cost to see if he has enough money to complete it?

    Deuteronomy 31:8 “The LORD himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged."

  37. Song of the Morning

    In the morning….there’s just something very important about “in the morning”. It’s like really important stuff always seems to happen at that time. We set off on a trip "in the morning," we pray “first thing” in the morning, we begin another day “in the morning”; our thoughts seem more fresh and...

  44. Facets of Reticence

    What is silence? Is it good or bad? Sometimes both, sometimes neither, it depends on why. Is it a something or a nothing? Many times we expect an answer from God, our spouse, a child, or whom-so-ever we are engaging with, but there is just silence, or no reply. In that space of no reply many of...

  45. Still Hiding

    These days, we are hiding from God, but it’s not a child's game, and there’s no laughing and giggling to it all anymore. Gen 3:8-10, "And they heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among...

  46. Who Are You Anyway?

    Who Are You Anyway? Contrary to popular belief, we all really do need a mediator. We have a conflict within us between life and death and there needs to be a judge and peacemaker to help resolve our conflicted thinking and crisis of conscience. Hebrews 9:13-15, “For if the blood of bulls and…

  49. Faith And Risk

    Faith is the eternal optimist, risk is the eternal pessimist. How do we act in faith and risk together? What is risk to you and what parts of your life do you feel are your biggest risks?
