Experiencing God, Again…

Fifteen years ago I did a Bible study entitled Experiencing God by Henry Blackaby and Claude King. It was a time we desperately needed to hear from God about a big decision. I honestly can’t remember if we heard from God, but we ended up not doing what we were contemplating. The one thing I…

God's Not Interested in Your Happiness

That’s the word I got in church on Sunday. Now before I start a heated theological debate on prosperity and God’s blessings, stay with me and think about it. God may not be interested in our happiness because he’s more interested in our growth. Trust me, this is a hard pill for me to swallow…
