(The following is a true story. The names have been changed to protect the innocent.) A young boy was in his dad’s car driving home. The problem was his dad was drunk. The boy gripped tightly to the seat each time the car drifted over the center line. (Can you imagine his feelings of fear?) […]

August 5, 2010 by
“Let the word of Christ richly dwell within you.” (Colossians 3:16) I recently called on the Twitter community to help me with a blog post idea I had.

“So he got up and came to his father. But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and felt compassion for him, and ran and embraced him and kissed him.” (Luke 15:20) I love that verse. It’s a great story to begin with, but when you add to that how […]
