Leaking Jesus The good man brings good things of the good stored up in him, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in him” Matthew 12:35 I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but babies leak. They also desire close proximity. At times this is…

The Loyalty Barrier I Peter 1:15 “Just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do” The problem is this: lately it feels like everything is falling apart. I’m struggling with work and with my family.  I have not fully surrendered to God and I’m…
