Spiritual Formation

A couple months ago, I was living in South Africa. Our power went out regularly, our water was kind of chunky some days, and there was a fair amount of crime. 

I’ve recently come to the conclusion that I’m a “two-talent person.”

I know—nobody enjoys confessing their sins. But I tend to think it’s even worse for perfectionists like me. 

As we sat side by side watching our kids’ practice, he showed concern about an issue with his son. I could relate. 

I used to think a leader was someone who knows a lot, talks a lot, and works a lot. 

What is peace? We often define it in terms of what it isn’t—as in, it’s the absence of conflict or distraction or anything that makes us feel uncomfortable or disturbed. 

I really, really did not like the word repentance.

In 2014, life for me exploded.

My way or the highway.

Look out for Number One.

When you picture strength, what comes to mind?
