This week we talk about my Dad and how tough he is when he goes to the dentist and doesn’t want anesthetics. Which leads to a conversation about relatives who go to doctors and to save a buck they ask for no anesthetic, wow! I lead that into telling the story about the Mega storm of 1991 where my Dad broke his hip into 40 different pieces while shoveling snow on the sidewalk. While he was in the hospital recovering... Read more

As I publish this week’s PODCAST, I am brimming with optimism. Whether you realize it or not, we are blessed with a singular privilege: To be alive at this time, in this place, at this precise moment in human history. As you will hear in this study of Luke 10, we have been handed a golden opportunity to fulfill that which is the highest calling that can be bestowed on any human being. Lofty words, those. But words that I... Read more

(The following was originally published at CareyGreen.com.) What are your Prayerfully developed Goals for the week? Hopefully you’ve done some goals for the year and broken them down month by month but I’m curious as to what your goal are for this week and what are you going to do to stay on track? The important part of what I’m asking you is “What are your Prayerfully developed Goals?” You need to check in with your savior to find out... Read more

When We Understand The Text You are born under the Federal Headship of Adam. You are born again under the Federal Headship of Christ. Federal Headship where is that term in the bible? Well you won’t find it there but it’s still an important doctrine when we understand the text. Romans 5:18-21 Federal Headship, what is that? How do you typically associate the word federal? With government right? As we talked about it earlier in the week, we are all... Read more

We all have had desert experiences in our lives at different seasons of time along our journey. Some seasons of trial are short and some are very long. He loves us so much that sometimes He allows us to stay in those deserts for a while to bring us back to Him. When it gets hot and dry we start looking for Him for relief. You know why? He misses you and desires relationship with you. Hosea 2:6 says: “For... Read more

Nathan Cochran, bass player for Mercy Me joins me this week. In addition to being 1/5th of one of the most influential Christian bands of the century, Nathan recently released his first solo EP titled Diving Blind. With the simple gist of “I don’t know the future”, Diving Blind features four singles straight from Nathan’s heart. But one of the characteristics of Nathan and Mercy Me’s music that I love is written, rewritten, quoted and requoted all over the internet: Their music... Read more

For Muslims, the Hadith are EXTREMELY important for living the Muslim life. Yet, different Muslims believe in different books of the Hadith. In fact, some Muslims will take a book and claim that portions of it are accurate to the instructions of Muhammad, but some are not. The “science” behind their reasoning is that the Hadith need to be authentic in their Isnad (chain or line of authority) and Matn (text). In other words, not only are the words themselves... Read more

The guys and I have unlocked life’s greatest mystery. Men and women are confusing to one another. That’s just a truth about life. Women use the word “confused”, but men use words like mystery, enigma, conundrum, brain buster, mind crusher, and consciousness hydrogen bomb in high heels. We just feel like we’re spinning around blindfolded and we don’t know what to do. Don’t get me wrong – we men find women wonderful… yet so confusing. So, as I ask around,... Read more

Luke 10:1 reads, “After these things the Lord appointed seventy others also, and sent them two by two before His face into every city and place where He Himself was about to go.” In light of that verse, I want to float a theory. My theory is this: Jesus did nothing arbitrarily or randomly. There was purpose behind everything that Jesus did. Including His sending of the 70. So if my theory holds, that Jesus did not send out... Read more

Are there any pretenses that you maintain? Being abused as a child, I had very low self-esteem growing up and no sense of identity and no one to validate that I was even important. In high school, I had already become very adept at making myself look busy and important, when in reality I had no friends and nowhere to go. So, on my lunch hours, instead of sitting and eating, or finding a group of kids to interact with,... Read more
