I've been critical and many times overly critical (I think with everybody, really).

And I've been a bully and not considerate at all.

I wonder sometimes why I act this way.  I think I want to feel significant.  If I…

I just received my copy of Still Here by Steven Curtis Chapman and Mary Beth Chapman from my son, Gabriel.  I look forward to being enlightened and encouraged!

I regret modeling legalism instead of a posture of grace. I no longer think legalism holds any promise. Because of my past hurts and traumas and shame and fears, I am trying now to live a life with more grace…

I see a lot of sentiment for “Empowering Ourselves…”  But if we could really empower ourselves, wouldn't we be a lot less stuck in our problems?

We can walk with others in the kindness of a Christian relationship while asking…

I'm listening to Wes King all day on Spotify as I do my work. "Thread Of Scarlet," "I Believe," "Life Is Precious," “What Matters Most.”

When I was eight, I went on a "vacation" with my father and got terribly motion-sick for days from the plane ride, (I couldn't sleep because the hotel room kept spinning), got sunburned over 80% of my body, and was…

How do I know if I'm a good writer?  Well, if you're a writer and you're a Christian - a loved, believing, repentant, forgiven, child of God - then you're good.  You're good because God says you're good in His…

Who haven't I forgiven?  Myself.  There's nothing quite like justice to keep me humble.  Just when I think about how God should discipline others, I'm always - the spirit always reminds me I'd be the very next one who should…

“If you would not be forgotten, as soon as you are dead and rotten, either write things worth reading, or do things worth the writing.” ~Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)

I'm wondering if we don't care about someone, we let them do what they want and we don't say anything to them about the way they live their life.  But when we DO care about someone, then we should, can…

I feel like I'm almost a good musician; almost a good writer; almost a good citizen; almost a good neighbor; almost a good son; almost a good husband; almost a good dad... I feel like I've almost been a person…

How can we find any joy in such a messed-up world?  A new Living Loved Life podcast is up and ready to be heard!  Jim Richter and Drew Jarrod share what it is to live loved by God.

God's love is like the stock market - if you just stay in it and wait long enough, you'll see, you'll come out ahead in the end.

"Love isn't equal.  It's not like the heart that receives to give - Love doesn't take in and then let out; Love needs to keep giving - it gives all the time - or it isn't love." ~Gabriel Jarrod

God forgives and reinstates everyone if they repent, but you don't let the drunkard drive the school bus.  People need to maintain the privilege of trust.  You have to earn the right to be in charge of people.  You have…

You don't get self-control by making excuses and not taking responsibility for your choices.
You get self-control by submitting to authority.

Other-control teaches self-control by modeling what control is - what it looks like. Then, you can enact it for…
