Here's a question I'd like for you to consider: Are there things that God has called you to do that you have not yet done? Think about it and be honest with yourself. Is there something (or even several things!) that God has called you to do but you have not been obedient to that call? We are …

Popping the Question
Okay, you’ve found the one. Now what? When you’re sure, get engaged. But be engaged only as long as it takes to plan your wedding. I’m not a believer in long engagements. Men, in particular, are more likely to ask, “Will you marry me?” as a holding action because they don’t want to lose the …

How to Express Your God-Given Talent on Any Job
In Hollywood, “the talent” are the ones that create the content or bring it to life. Without them harnessing their abilities in unique and dynamic ways, there is no Hollywood. They are talent. And whether you realize it or not, so are you. I believe that God sees each of us as “the talent,” which …
