Instructing and encouraging you to live your life as a disciple of Jesus

Stop Wasting Time

by

I read a great analogy that is credited to Christian comedian Robert G. Lee. He said to imagine you had a bank account that someone deposited $86,400 in every day. Each morning it would be cleared out and another $86,400 would be credited. Whatever you didn’t spend that day would be lost. The question is, would you find a way to spend the money each day, or would you waste some of it by leaving it in the account?

Each day we are each given 86,400 seconds with which to live our lives. We are not allowed to carry any over until the next day, nor can we borrow from tomorrow to get a little more time for today.

Discouragement

by

It’s only natural that we will become discouraged from time to time. Sometimes a series of events throws us into a tailspin. Sometimes it’s as simple as hearing a song on the radio. Whatever the reason, discouragement is a reality we all have to face.

Defining Your Brand

by

In my coaching business, there is a lot of emphasis on developing your personal brand. It’s important to define who you are and what people can expect from you at all times. As a follower of Christ, I think it’s equally important to be conscious of our brand in the eyes of the world. We need to be certain we are accurately portraying the message of Jesus in everything that we do.

You shouldn’t need a sign around your neck to tell people what you stand for in life. Rather, if we are living consistently with the mission of Christ, it will be self-evident. [Read more…] about Defining Your Brand

Why Do You Follow Jesus?

by

People choose to follow Jesus for many reasons. Many follow Him in an effort to reach Heaven and, by default, escape the fiery depths of Hell. Others follow Him because they see Him as a wise and moral teacher.

Then there are those of us who follow Him because we love Him with all of our heart and seek to live a life that pleases Him. Into which camp do you fall? [Read more…] about Why Do You Follow Jesus?

Doubting Your Faith

by

Many of us have doubts from time to time when it comes to our faith in God. Is it really worth it? Is it actually true? Is there really a God? I don’t think God is afraid of our questions or put off by our doubt. He wants us to choose Him, and making a choice requires consideration of all the facts involved.

Questions

If God would have wanted automated robots who had no questions and who had no choice but to follow Him, He would not have blessed us with the gift of freewill. [Read more…] about Doubting Your Faith
