Advent Reflection #3: There were Shepherds in the Field
The angel announcing the birth of Jesus could have visited any number of people. However, the angel specifically spoke to a group of shepherds who were tending their sheep. The shepherds were terrified upon seeing the angel. Not only did they see this angel shining with God’s glorious light, but then, many more angels appeared. … Continued
Advent Reflection #2: The Sacrificial Gifts of the Magi
I believe nothing mentioned in the Scriptures is by chance. Each example or story contains meaningful or hidden truths. The story of the three wise men: Gaspar, Melchior, and Balthazar, as written in Matthew 2:1-12, I feel is one worthy of deeper contemplation. To make this journey, these three men were deeply motivated and inspired. … Continued
Advent Reflection #1: Making Himself Nothing
“In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness.” Philippians 2:5-7 (NIV) I … Continued
Sexual Sin and Self-Sufficiency
Overcoming life-dominating sinful behaviors often begin with a crisis of truth. Everyone who struggles with sexual sin or any other kind of pervasive sinful behavior will have such a moment in their lives when they will be faced with the truth of God’s word and the resulting decision(s) they make in the face of that … Continued
Sense of Well-Being
We make resolutions every New Year to exercise more, and some of us do. We try the new diets, and foods with organic or all-natural labels fly off the shelves. People love to care about health. But unfortunately, what falls to the wayside in that quest to be physically healthy is spiritual and emotional well-being. … Continued
Revealing Shame
On the surface, shame can be seen as a tool which can keep us aware of our manners, our surroundings, our volume levels. There are those who will say that shameless people are the people who are brash, hasty, impulsive, or loud, and that a healthy dose of shame is what keeps each person a … Continued
The Reality Of Desire
“Jesus turned and saw them following and said to them, ‘What are you seeking?’” ~John 1:38 Do you know what you want? For what do you wish? What do you seek? Each human being, every day of their life, wrestles in some way, shape or form with desire. As human beings, made in the image … Continued
What Lies Beneath (cont’d)
Intimacy (In-to-me-see) There were no masks, posing, or facades between Adam and Eve before the brokenness of sin entered the world. This is hard for us to imagine. Adam and Eve’s exterior and interior were naked and unashamed. They could intuit each other’s humanity. They could see the real in each other. They saw into … Continued
What Lies Beneath
I was recently given the daunting task to give a comprehensive lecture on the topic of sex within one hour. How could I possibly do justice to this topic in such a short amount of time? Of course I knew to seek the Lord’s leading on how to best face this challenge and was shown … Continued
Sacred Sex
“I was like a boy playing on the sea-shore, and diverting myself now and then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me.” Sir Isaac Newton I love seashells. My affection for them began as a boy growing up in Cleveland, Ohio. … Continued
