I didn’t have anything to offer, how could I when I felt inadequate. In that moment, my past fears and doubts flashed before my eyes. I was reminded of the differences, amplified by the reality before me: I was from another country, spoke and acted differently. I knew I couldn’t compete and wondered why I had ever thought I had… Read More
One thing every Christian must do
I love God, I truly do but (there has to be a but, right?), I don’t always act like I do. I proclaim this love but my life, my decisions and actions say otherwise. Like Apostle Paul, I “do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do.”… Read More
Why your Christian life is stagnant
Do you believe your Christian life is stagnant? That you are caught in a place where you are barely growing? Then this post is for you, though I will be the first to tell you that what you’re about to read will be hard. It is the truth but it will also be bitter. Bitter because it seems we have… Read More
How Easter reminds me of God’s unconditional love
“For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life.” John 3:16 This is probably one of the most popular Bible verses out there and for good reason. Talking about God’s love is like talking about a subject that will never end. If our lives… Read More
Making sense of our struggles with Anger

This is no more visible than in the way we manage our relationships. I have written quite a bit about relationships but wanted… Read More
How you can change the world
We have often heard that change is inevitable but do you really believe this? I believe there are usually three classes of people when we talk about change: a. The Anti-Change Brigade – Those who avoid change at all costs. b. The Change Followers – These people couldn’t care less, they are the neutral parties and go with the flow…. Read More
Understanding Sex: Conversations for Christians and the Church
Is sex good or bad? This was a question I asked myself, many times while growing up. The information I received was usually conflicting and most peoples’ reaction to sex didn’t help. For a long time, I couldn’t even use the word in public. I would usually look for variations or infer it. Through my actions, it was obvious… Read More
The prayer life I never had
I longed to pray but never could With a willing heart but tired bones The snooze button, I loved to hate A reminder that I could do it late I searched all around for the miracle bug A book, a word to get me done. For the life of me, it didn’t work so to the church, I went… Read More
God knows what you’re going through
As I’ve grown older, I’ve realized that holidays mean different things to different people. For some, it’s a time to celebrate, to be joyful and merry while for others it’s a reminder of all they do not have. This Christmas will be the first one without my Dad and even with this painful reminder we are comforted knowing that God… Read More
