There’s a Lion

You walk out of church.Same routine. Same steps. Same parking lot. Except today… it’s different. Because sitting right there—between your car and the exit—is a lion. Not metaphorical.Not spiritualized.A real lion. Watching. Waiting. Now be honest… You’re not checking your phone.You’re not finishing a conversation.You’re not casually strolling to your car.

This Little Light of Mine… but Should it Stay Little?

Have you ever had a moment where the lights in a room were dim…and you mistook something for something else? I think we all have. Have you ever walked across a dark room thinking you could make it—only to trip over something you didn’t even know was there? I have. In fact, I once cut […]

The Real Jesus

There’s a tension we don’t always sit in long enough. Two visions of Jesus. Daniel sees Him— (Daniel 10:3-5)and it’s almost too much to take in: A man clothed in linen.Gold wrapped around Him.A body like topaz.A face like lightning.Eyes like fire.A voice that sounds like a crowd roaring all at once.
