Something Andrew said this morning on the Gospel Truth really hit home with me: You’re always going to turn out better if you stand on your convictions rather than compromise. Lately, I’ve found myself in situations with people who—just like Andrew describes—are people who “don’t let the Bible get in the way of what they…

Rest Assured
A man who is sort of a mentor to me told me I needed to learn to rest, to let go. “You can’t receive with a hand that’s full,” he said. It was hard at first to understand what I was holding on to. Thinker that I am, I spent quite a bit of time…

Another year of giving, another year of bumping along in my finances. That pretty much summed up my story when it came to money. Have you been there before? All my Christian life, I believed what Malachi 3:10 said: “‘Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, That there may be food in My house, And…
