It’s been said that great movements of God are fueled when gospel patrons and gospel proclaimers collaboratively work together to further the Kingdom of God in a region. South Florida has a long history of catalytic churches and movements that were fueled by faithful men and women of God awakening to advancing the gospel in their day.  Kingdom collaboration is in our DNA  At the invitation of those who had been fervently praying for revival, in the early ’80s Billy Graham filled Lockhart Stadium with a message of hope and freedom in Christ. As a result, people were saved, evangelistic […]

Faith-based films touch and change lives; inspire and encourage believers and provide a special opportunity for an uplifting experience for our families. After a long pause, 2021 saw a resurgence of faith films in theaters. These films included “Show Me the Father” and “Courageous Legacy” (by the Kendrick Brothers) and “The Jesus Music” and “American Underdog” by the Erwin Brothers. Some of the other faith films in 2021 were “God’s Not Dead: We The People,” “Journey with Jesus,”  “The Most Reluctant Convert: The Untold Story of C.S. Lewis,” “Sabina: Tortured For Christ, The Nazi Years,” “Christmas with the Chosen,” and […]

The beginning of a new year always has a bit more emotion attached to it.  Sometimes we are eager to leave the old behind and start fresh and then other times we wish the year would never end. Many of us may be anticipating good things, including some significant milestones.  However, there may be some of us that have a sense of dread.  We may be anticipating some hard decisions and wishing things could be different (and we are tired) or our minds are filled with anxious thoughts as we anticipate the future. Like I said, the beginning of a […]

A fun question to ask someone as you get to know them is whether they consider themselves an introvert or an extrovert. In essence, the answer to that question provides some insights as to how that person is refreshed. An extrovert is refreshed when they are around other people… the so called “energy in the room”. The introvert, on the other hand, is refreshed by finding a quiet place, alone with a good book. I am both… weird. I found out a few years ago they call that person an ambivert. I sometimes find it hard to navigate the idea […]

Resurrecting Advent

I love the days leading up to Christmas. Visiting family, enjoying great food, and seeing the anticipation for Christmas grow in my grandchildren are a few of my favorite things about this time of year. However, what I enjoy most is the celebration centered around Christ’s birth. Every year there seems to be an uproar over when it’s considered too early to begin the Christmas season. Some put away the fall decor and break out the Christmas tree weeks before Thanksgiving. Others wait until the Thanksgiving leftovers are long gone before even considering making the holiday transition. While some prepare […]

I’ve seen the world – traveling to over one hundred nations through my work as the president of OneHope – and I’m convinced of one thing: children and youth in South Florida need God’s Word just as much as children and youth in the most desolate areas around the world. While the cultures and contexts I’ve seen over the years are vastly different, the primary need is the same: the next generation needs to experience the Gospel in a personal way and be discipled by their community as they continue to grow.   In our own backyard A few years […]

At God’s direction, Jeremiah sent a letter to the exiled people of God in Babylon which said, “But seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you into exile, and pray to the Lord on its behalf, for in its welfare you will find your welfare” (Jeremiah 29:7). They would return to their home in Jerusalem after seventy years in a foreign land. During those years, they had a calling to build up and not tear down, to pray and not curse, to seek the welfare of the city where they were exiled. Their own wellbeing depended on […]
