Time is an equal opportunity giver. No one gets more or loses it without choice. The truth is everyone gets the same amount of time in their day…24 hours or 1,440 minutes to be exact. And no one can magically make it speed up or slow down for them. So why is it that some […]
You’ll never live life to the fullest if you can’t laugh. In fact, laughter is as much of a spiritual thing as any other element of faith. Holocaust survivor and founder of Logotherapy Viktor Frankel said, “Humor, more than anything else in the human make-up, can afford an aloofness and an ability to rise above any […]
Where your focus goes your energy flows. That’s because what we look at is what we go toward. I am notorious for this phenomena while driving. If I look left…I start drifting left, if I look right…I start drifting right. Spiritually, this happens to us as well. This is why the Bible encourages us to […]

Faith is not just about having it, and using it…it’s about giving it away as well. We fall short in the complete work of faith if we are not sharing it with others. It’s great to receive something, but it’s even greater to give something. In fact, numerous studies have even shown us that helping […]
In my early twenties I worked with an amateur boxer at a shipping center. Each day that I came to work, he would share boxing tips with me that he was learning during his training. Looking back, I realized that some of the principles he taught me could apply to our spiritual fight as well. […]
Faith…you gotta have it in order to use it. You can’t step out in faith if you don’t have faith. Faith doesn’t magically appear in our life. It is something that we acquire over time and practice. Each one of us has a measure of faith; some greater, some smaller. The good news is that […]
