When Worship Happens and the Guest of Honor Isn’t There
Many churches and businesses look successful yet feel hollow. A hard look at Revelation 3 and the lukewarm water of Laodicea, and how to tear down the aqueducts keeping real presence out.

The Quiet Rebuild
So you’ve waited. Your brook has dried up. You see the source is God, not the system. The question is different now: how do you engage while the world is blurred around you?
Some of the most profound work happens quietly. In the gestures, the reflections, the attention no one else notices. The observer carries the story, shapes the moment, and learns the patterns others miss.
Think of a falcon. It does not focus on the prey. It sees the shadow through the chaos. That is how

What Are You Asking For? Lessons From Job and the Man at the Gate
Acts 3 tells of a lame man who asked for silver and gold, but God gave him healing instead. Job lost everything and longed only for God’s presence. One begged for survival, the other for communion. This article explores how what we ask for reveals what we believe sustains us, and why true life comes not from temporary relief but from God Himself. Are we asking for silver and gold, or for Him?

Leave Nothing
Worship is not just for Sundays. Some songs follow you into the everyday, shaping how you live and breathe. Be Still and Know has reminded me that God does not want the polished version of me but the anxious, burdened version willing to surrender. When I pour it all out and leave nothing behind, He fills the empty space with His peace. Worship is not performance; it is release.

Faithful and Just: Why the “Why” Matters
God’s forgiveness is not sentimental. It is not Him overlooking sin or letting it slide. That would make Him unjust. But He is not unjust. He is just, because the penalty has already been paid in full. Forgiveness is not God waving away wrongdoing. It is the removal of the eternal penalty, because Jesus satisfied it at the cross. Justice and mercy do not compete there. They agree.
