Here's Why

Dear Friends, Last week one of the men from our church committed suicide. I don't know what went through his mind when he made that choice, but what I do know is that his death has left a big wound in the lives of his family and friends. As I've talked with many of them, one of the biggest questions that comes up is, “Why would God allow this to happen?” The truth is, there are a lot of reasons why God does what He does, and allows what He allows, and I couldn’t begin to ad

Turkish Delight, And Other Things That Trip Us Up

Dear Friends, I have been a fan of the author C.S. Lewis since I was in fourth grade, when I first read his book, “The Lion, The Witch, And The Wardrobe. It was a story that really captured my attention, especially the part when the White Witch offers Turkish Delight to Edmund to get him to betray his brother and sisters.

And just like my frien

Obsessed

Dear Friends, Last week we walked through a very difficult situation with one of the young, single moms in our church. For several weeks the biological father of her child had been getting increasingly violent with her, and her family - and then last week, it all came to a head.
