Summary Scripture reveals God’s unmatched power, from creation to Christ’s resurrection and the believer’s daily life. This same power saves, transforms, equips, and sustains God’s people through the Holy Spirit. Jesus displayed divine power in miracles, redemption, and victory over death, and that power now lives in believers. God gives His followers strength to obey, serve, hope confidently, and accomplish more than they could ever imagine through faith in Him. The Incompre

Summary Lasting healing, physical or spiritual, requires honestly identifying the real problem. Temporary fixes and self-deception only delay restoration. Jesus came to heal those who admit their sin, not those who pretend to be righteous. Like a hidden nail in a tire, unacknowledged sin continues to cause damage. Repentance opens the door to true spiritual healing, forgiveness, and renewed life with God. Breakthrough Begins with Defining the Real Problem My daughter has had

Faithful followers listen, obey, endure hardship, and live above reproach. Sustained by God’s grace rather than human effort, they reflect His character and are promised eternal reward, the crown of life given to those who remain faithful

Summary Jesus’ parable of the vineyard reveals God’s patience, authority, and expectation of spiritual fruit from His people. Israel and the church belong to God, not themselves. The servants in the parable were prophets, and the Son was Jesus, whom many rejected. Yet Jesus became the cornerstone of God’s kingdom. Those who repent, trust Christ, and submit to His leadership produce lasting fruit that delights God when it pours in abundantly. More Than a Song, a Spiritual Real

Summary People wear clothes to communicate identity and purpose, and Scripture teaches that every believer wears the same spiritual uniform, Christ Himself. Putting on Christ protects us from sin, identifies us with Jesus, and calls us to humility, love, and good deeds. Rather than comfort or status, this new clothing produces spiritual fruit and makes believers clearly recognizable as followers transformed into God’s image. Why People Wear the Clothes They Do Why do people w

Summary Wanting approval is natural but incompatible with faithful service to Christ. Through personal experience, the author shows how God frees His servants from people-pleasing and fear of criticism. Scripture teaches that loving others means sharing truth, not seeking acceptance. Christ’s followers sow God’s Word faithfully, serve one Master, and follow the Shepherd’s voice rather than chasing human approval. I admit that I want people to like me. Years ago, a congregatio

Summary Weariness arises from physical strain, spiritual opposition, sin, ignorance, unanswered prayer, and emotional distress. Scripture warns that fatigue leads to discouragement and quitting. God offers rest, renewed strength, and encouragement through His Word, His promises, Jesus Christ, and supportive believers. Those who trust the Lord find strength to persevere, serve faithfully, and finish the race despite exhaustion. Humans tire, but God doesn’t. The Lord, the everl

Summary Serving others presents constant choices. Staying focused on a God-given calling means saying no to many requests, even worthy ones. By providing free spiritual resources, praying for individuals, and pointing people to Christ, he believes he best loves those he may never meet. Faithful stewardship, not people-pleasing, brings lasting joy and peace. Those choices introduce us to additional ones. We can always justify why we shouldn’t get involved in meeting a need. As

Summary Passing the peace of Christ is a biblical expression of love, unity, and the Spirit’s work among believers. Rooted in Scripture, it reflects the true peace Jesus offers, spiritual wholeness with God. Though this peace cannot be given to unbelievers, Christians can display it through their lives, creating a desire for Christ. Sharing His peace is central to worship, witness, and faithful discipleship. Many Christian congregations include a time of mutual greeting durin

Summary True Christmas joy is not found in decorations or traditions but in obediently serving Christ and giving for God’s purposes. Through global ministry partnerships, evangelism, discipleship, and sacrificial living, the author testifies to deep, lasting joy that flows from seeing God use ordinary faithfulness to make an eternal difference. This Christ-centered joy can be experienced every day, regardless of whether Christmas trimmings accompany it. I write these words ov

Summary Scripture joins worship and service as inseparable expressions of devotion to God. True worship goes beyond church attendance and requires offering our lives in active obedience. While many believers become spiritual consumers, God calls His people to serve, love others, and fulfill their purpose. Worshipping God means living like Jesus, giving effort, energy, and service as a daily sacrifice to Him. Do you know what an irreversible binomial is? I didn’t either. It is

Summary God’s greatest Christmas gift, Jesus, is often misunderstood or rejected. While many ignore Him or acknowledge Him briefly, Scripture calls believers to fully receive Christ and live clothed in Him daily. Through Jesus’ humility, sacrifice, and the great exchange of grace, sinners receive righteousness and life. True faith is not occasional admiration but wholehearted surrender, remaining in Christ and bearing spiritual fruit for God’s glory. Why God’s Greatest Gift I

Summary God’s promise of overflowing blessing belongs to repentant believers who turn from self-centered living and follow the Shepherd. Their transformed lives bear fruit, shine brightly, and reflect new priorities shaped by Christ. God fills them with Jesus, His Word, the Holy Spirit, faith, fellowship, service, and even trials that produce joy. When the LORD is Shepherd, believers lack nothing that truly matters. “The LORD is my shepherd; I have all that I need…My cup over

Summary Wahoo, wealth, and winning promise fulfillment, but leave lives empty and damaged. Short-term pleasure, material security, and prideful success fail to satisfy the soul and often lead to painful consequences. Scripture warns against these pursuits and points to God’s better way. Only His living water truly fills fragile lives, producing lasting love, joy, peace, and purpose that overflow beyond temporary pleasures. Our lives are like easily crushed plastic cups. We ig

Summary Scripture contrasts drunkenness, which ruins lives, with being filled with the Holy Spirit, which brings power, wisdom, joy, and effectiveness. From Jesus to the early church and Old Testament servants, God consistently works through Spirit-filled people. The Spirit empowers believers to overcome sin, forgive enemies, serve faithfully, and fulfill God’s purposes. Every ministry depends on the Holy Spirit’s power and our willing cooperation. “In March 2015, a well-mean

Summary Leaving a spiritual legacy requires intentionally passing the baton of faith to the next generation. By sharing the gospel, renewing our thinking, living for God’s purpose, loving others, following Jesus wholeheartedly, and making disciples, believers ensure Christianity continues to multiply. Empowered by the Holy Spirit and focused on love, faithful followers press on so future generations know, follow, and serve Christ. Korczak Ziotkowski began creating the Crazy H

Summary Sacrifice reveals what we value most. Scripture and global examples show that half-hearted Christianity does not honor God. Just as God rejected defective offerings, He calls believers to wholehearted devotion. Jesus’ loving sacrifice sets the pattern for ours, voluntary, costly, and motivated by love. True worship means offering our best, becoming living sacrifices who surrender pride, invest generously, and live fully committed to knowing Christ and making Him known

Summary The world celebrates winners and the G.O.A.T., but God honors humility. Scripture reveals that true greatness in God’s Kingdom belongs to the humblest, not the most accomplished. Jesus perfectly modeled humility by surrendering His rights, serving others, and dying on the cross. Because of this, God exalted Him above all. Followers of Christ are called to reject pride, embrace humility, and serve willingly, knowing God lifts the lowly. Athletic competitions produce wi

Summary Our treasures act as chauffeurs for the heart, shaping passions, priorities, and eternal outcomes. Scripture warns that pleasure, possessions, and pride naturally dominate apart from spiritual renewal. While a new birth does not instantly change what we value, God’s Word gradually redirects our hearts toward lasting investments. Earthly treasures fade, but heavenly treasures, obedient service, disciple-making, and God-glorifying good works, endure forever and determin

Summary Humans are created for connection, and our need for touch points to a deeper spiritual longing for God. Sin separates us like spiritual leprosy, leaving us unclean and disconnected. Jesus became human to bridge that gap. Just as He touched and healed the leper, He still reaches out in grace today, offering forgiveness, cleansing, and a restored relationship to all who come to Him by faith.
