There are so many other things Jesus did. If they were all written down, each of them, one by one, I can’t imagine a world big enough to hold such a library of books. ~John 21:25 (Message) We’ve come to the end of this book. But really, it’s just the beginning. For me, anyway. You’ve […]

Congratulations! You’ve decided to blog. But what do you write about? Where do you get ideas? As an ambassador for Christ, you have His content as your content. There are not enough days in your lifetime to exhaust the mysteries, the depth, the heights, or the dimensions of His life-changing, soul-morphing truth. ~@stickyJesus, p. 160 […]

Since the gospel is the stickiest story ever told, committing to write a blog is one of the most powerful channels to get that story heard. ~@stickyJesus In the beginning, the future is a pristine expanse that yawns before us.

I couldn’t help but think of the robot in the series Lost in Space as I read this chapter. Warning! Warning! People walk in darkness. People have lost hope. People are going to die. And they are online. “More people will log onto blogs, Facebook, and Twitter this Sunday than will go to church. More […]

Words which do not give the light of Christ increase the darkness ~Mother Teresa There he was, a powerful pawn, on his way to Damascus, engrossed in the game of Persecute the Christian, when a blast of light knocked Paul to his knees. Blinded by glory, he began to see, and the whole game changed. […]

If we will let Him, Christ will do in us and through us that which He did in and through the committed believers after Pentecost. The potential is ours. Do we dare believe that the faithful Christian believers may yet experience a great new wave of spiritual power? ~A.W. Tozer “He [the Holy Spirit] is […]
