During my devotional time with the Lord earlier today, He led me to a verse in the book of Habakkuk that helped me to better understand how He wants His children to live. This verse says: “Look at the proud; his soul is not straight or right within him, but […]

“God’s Promise of Provision” by J.M. Farro
When my family and I have been in a tight spot, and we’ve been tempted to become worried or anxious, the Lord has often shown me some encouraging verses from Psalm 111. They read: “The Lord is gracious, merciful, and full of loving compassion. He has given food and provision […]
We Recommend: Your Heart, “Autumn”
For a guy who puts out several EPs a month with six different projects, you might think that Andrew Huang goes for quantity over quality. However, the man is consistently solid with very few missteps along the way. One of his best pieces of work is his album Autumn from his indie/folk/pop […]
“Is The Light Being Hidden?” by Nathaniel Schexnayder
Recently I had the privilege of attending Winter Jam. The following day at work, my co-worker who covered for me inquired about my absence. I went on to tell him that I went to a Christian concert. He asked who was playing there, and I said some Christian rock bands […]
“Believing God for Rich Rewards” by J.M. Farro
During my quiet time with the Lord recently, He impressed upon my heart that I was unnecessarily losing out on some of the rewards He had for me. When I asked Him how I was doing that, He led me to Hebrews 11:6 (NKJV), which says: “But without faith it […]
10 Years Later: Skillet, “Alien Youth”
So, my original concept idea for this blog was to pit a release from 10 years ago with a new release from the same artist 10 years later (so, it’d be like, for example, Steven Curtis Chapman’s 2001 Declaration album versus his announced new release for sometime this year… which hopefully I’ll […]
“The Art of Distraction” by John DiBiase
So, I’m well into the swing of baby daddy duty (AKA I’m Mr. Mom now). Thankfully, Will’s grandma (also known as my wonderful and gracious mother) has been helping me out with Will on the days Amy is back at the hospital as an operating room nurse. Amy’s still breast […]
We Recommend: PFR, “Them”
I was sitting here trying to think of a project to recommend for this week, and when I opened iTunes, “Say” by PFR came on. Like a warm blanket or a steamy cup of hot cocoa on a frigid evening, the melodic vocals of Joel Hanson and the encouraging lyrics of “Let me […]
“Top 10 Worst Baby Bathtime Moments” by Amy DiBiase
So, it has occurred to me recently, that the most practical place to blog from is my cell phone. In this day & age with Smart phones and all, I feel like I should take advantage of this amazing piece of technology right in the palm of my hand. Not […]
“A New Resolve” by J.M. Farro
I’ve always found the ending of an old year, and the beginning of a new year, bittersweet. When 2010 recently came to a close, it was no different. While I was excited about what new things 2011 would bring, I couldn’t help but feel a bit wistful about the unanswered […]
