Sometimes, maybe more often than not, the most sanctified prayers are the most unfiltered, unsanctimonious prayers.

The great and yet unrealized gift of Pentecost and the outpouring of the Holy Spirit is God does not dwell in temples built by human hands, but in his blood bought image bearers—the Body of Christ.

In our own lives, may we learn to embrace lament, not despair, because lament is the song of hope.

Prayer will either be our navigational operating system or the window dressing of an otherwise nominal faith.

Prayer creates a dynamic context for revelation in real time.

It's not about placing our hope in the answer to our prayers, but the wholesale, full-scale abandonment of our lives to the One who is himself the answer—come what may. 

If a picture is worth a thousand words, a tree must be worth millions.

God can handle our bravery in his presence far better than our passive tendency to play it safe.

Walking with God is far from a romantic adventure. It is to leave home on a trip without knowing the destination.

As Christians, we should always see ourselves as a part of this grand, redemptive story that stretches across time, around the globe, and even spans heaven and earth!
