We Don’t Clash Because We’re Different,We Clash Because We Want the Same Things Differently

April 16, 2026

The world is a fast moving place. It’s so easy to get lost within the news, the cultures, the social media. Our views are shaped by everything we experience, but sometimes we need to step back and take a deeper look. Most people believe conflict comes from difference. Different beliefs. Different cultures. Different values. But … More We Don’t Clash Because We’re Different,We Clash Because We Want the Same Things Differently

Stop Being Spoon-Fed Scripture

April 14, 2026

I spend a lot of time examining the world’s three major religions, and I noticed that there’s something subtle happening in modern Christianity that most people don’t even realize. We’ve become incredibly good at hearing the Bible, and incredibly dependent on someone else to explain it. Sermons. Podcasts. Devotionals. Social media clips. We consume more … More Stop Being Spoon-Fed Scripture

Our Biggest Differences Are Small From Above

April 13, 2026

Last week I was enthralled with the Artemis mission. There’s something about seeing the earth from a distance that changes you, if you let it. Watching footage from space you don’t see countries.

We’ve reached a strange place in the world where every idea is treated as if it deserves equal weight. It doesn’t. That might sound harsh at first, but it’s actually one of the most important truths a person can understand if they ever want their life to change. Because transformation doesn’t start with motivation. It … More Not Everything Deserves Equal Consideration

East of Your Past

April 6, 2026

Most people don’t actually understand what the Bible means when it says: “As far as the east is from the west…” – Psalm 103:12 We read it like it’s just another way of saying “really far.” A poetic exaggeration. A comforting phrase. But it’s not. It’s precise. And if people truly understood it, they would … More East of Your Past

I Miss You

April 3, 2026

I miss you. Not in a way that needs to be explained, and not in a way that fits neatly into logic. Just in a way that exists, whether I want it to or not. It shows up at the most unexpected times, driving home, sitting in silence, hearing something that reminds me of a … More I Miss You
