Desire vs. Happiness Desire is all about achieving some kind of perceived happiness. Discovering the difference between desire and happiness is the key to contentment. In his compelling analogy of desire, author and pastor Dr. Jamal Bryant likens desire to a “wish,” an unshakeable yearning to attain a goal—“an internal aim for an external conquest.” He explains truths that reveal the power of desire to work even when you are unaware of its activity. Desire constantly tugs at everyone in a myriad of ways. This powerful training tool teaches you how to control your desires while ...

Caleb was the man who sowed continually into his life to mature him to such an extent that God was able to use him to lead the Nation of Israel, win wars and maintain peace in the Land for forty years. Caleb had to step to the front and look ahead. He had to see beyond today. True fathers see the PLAN OF GOD, and propagate it.

In his book, Silence Your Inner Pharisee, Jon Edward Fugler challenges the longtime believer to think differently about his or her relationship with Christ. You’ve been giving Jesus your best for years. You’ve faithfully obeyed and served him. You’ve led others to Christ or mentored them to maturity. You serve in the kids’ ministry at church. You’re in a Bible study. You lead a small group. You appear to be a stellar Christian example. You’re doing all the right things.

2012 was the hardest and best year of my life. I did not see this crisis coming, but am glad it came before it was too late. Throughout this difficult time I discovered my Heavenly Dad likes me just the way I am. Even though my path went through deep waters, God was with me every step of the way. I discovered I cannot hide my toxic issues for eventually they will leak out and hurt those who are closest to me, primarily my wife and children. The more I comprehend the grace of God, the more I am equipped to confront my own baggage and wounds.

God has placed a distinctive imprint in the hearts of His children—a deep yearning to know Him personally and intimately. Yet for many believers, this longing remains unsatisfied: they struggle daily with the practical reality of always longing for God yet never being fulfilled in their relationship with Him. In "The Devotional Life," Dr. Patrick Oben merges his meticulousness as a physician with the clarity of a Bible teacher to offer insights that are both deep and easy to understand.

I understand that it is indeed tough to be a man in God's economy, but we are called to be leaders and to walk in Christ's footprints. Our society has a difficult time placing man in a satisfactory role that would complement the Madison Avenue advertising group or the image-makers of Hollywood. Men need to take back the responsibilities that they have either given away or have had stolen from them, and collectively become the men that Jesus spoke about in his word. Do not let your earthly condition dictate your spiritual position.

God calls each of his sons to rise and shine, but many have settled into the daily rigors of Christianity and have exchanged their passion for complacency. They have let the cares of the world flip their focus. God has a radical challenge for his children: Stop burning daylight! Will you answer the call? Will you rise to the challenge? Will you push aside complacency and step into your calling? Will you take your eyes off of yourself and look at the hurting people around you? It is time we answer God’s call to rise and shine!

Through a glass darkly is a peculiar phrase. It implies that we can’t comprehend reality through the lens of personal experience. While the Bible offers worthwhile principles for living, it is not a reference of authority to someone who hasn’t acknowledged it as truth. So rather than wrestle with ideology, let’s change the focus and consider ourselves as evidence of a Divine Personality!

In a similar way to His message to Ezekiel, the Lord is calling men as watchmen. He has tasked us with making disciples of all nations. We are to warn of the consequences of sin and God's judgment to come. We are to share the good news of forgiveness of sins through Jesus Christ and urge all people to forsake their sins and follow the Lord.
