Dream great dreams
The Maestro was born in the northern Italian city of Modena. His mother was a cigar factory worker, his father was a baker and amateur tenor. It was the amateur tenor part that most touched young Luciano Pavarotti. He loved hearing his dad sing, and he spent hours listening to the family’s collection of recordings […]

The tongue is a rudder
The tongue is a rudder; it controls the ship. (See James 3.) I think if James were writing today he might say that the tongue is a steering wheel that controls the direction of your life. Do you want to move your life in a different direction? Choose your words carefully. The words you speak […]

God will provide
Several films have been based on the story of Esther. In the ones I have seen, she is ravishingly gorgeous. Eyes shaped like crescents, unblemished olive skin. A Hollywood heartthrob, this lady. And, indeed, she must have been. Selected as the queen of Persia out of a harem of lovely contenders. The movies are equally […]

Designed to sing
We are a singing people because it is how God has created us. It’s what we do. And when we do, we’re simply joining in with what the rest of creation is doing. DESIGNED TO SING We are all singers. We may not all be very good singers, but we are all created to be […]

Forward
This book is about the rest of your life. It’s about tomorrow. Your tomorrow—and the day after that. Your God-given future is not a haphazard jumble of confusing contingencies. If you feel stuck, you don’t have to be. If you feel discouraged, it’s time to deal with that. If you feel uncertain, you can get […]

No one gets a free pass
As far as rescue stories go, mine is wimpy. It won’t be made into a movie. I was never interviewed by a media outlet. You’ll never read my story in National Geographic or Reader’s Digest. In the encyclopedia of rescue operations, mine wouldn’t warrant a footnote. Yet what was no news to others was big […]

Compelled to Sing
We are a singing people because the gospel of the Lord Jesus compels us to sing. It’s what we do. Our good friend pastor Alistair Begg has spoken of how he can tell when someone who was on the sidelines of faith has embraced it by seeing them now with full eyes and fully engaged […]

You are never forgotten
It was a case of David versus Goliath in the digital age. On one side of the fight was Google, the seemingly all-powerful tech giant bristling with lawyers and masses of corporate cash. On the other side was Mario Costeja González, a regular, everyday citizen of Spain. What were these two combatants fighting about? The […]

He Refused to bow
In February 2015 the terrorist group ISIS beheaded twenty-one Christians on a beach in Libya. In a video the men are seen moments before their execution, calling out to Jesus and mouthing prayers. Most of them were Egyptian migrant laborers working to provide for their families. ISIS slaughtered the men in order to shock the […]
