I was wrapped up in all of “my” things, and my tunnel vision didn’t allow me to always see other things that should have been important. I was focused on growing a student ministry, growing as a leader, learning everything I could learn, and honestly, appearing to be a spiritual hero that “my people” couldn’t live without. Even when I scheduled in father-son time, I was often preoccupied with church ministry. Throughout most of my son’s life, my day off has been Tuesday. Most of my friends in ministry take off on Mondays or Fridays, but I’ve always found Tuesday to be a perfect stopping point, allowing me to regroup after the weekend, rest, and then finish the week strong. Because my wife has also worked most of our son’s life, that meant Tuesday became known as “Man Day.” Listen for more...

Isn’t it good enough just to be a loving person? And what does it even mean to be holy? The word itself means “set apart.” So, some have answered the question of how to be holy by removing themselves as far as possible from the world. For example, they become monks or nuns. Is that what it means to be holy? When we look at the Bible, we see that holiness sets us apart from sinful thoughts and behaviors. So, would holiness mean submitting to a somewhat colorless life defined by “shall not” rules? Is that how we become holy? Here’s a better way to ask the question: how does Jesus, God in the flesh and holiest of all, model for us what it means to be holy? He had 12 dudes traveling with him 24/7 and had “scum of society” hanging around him so much that the religious people accused him of being a glutton and drunkard (Matthew 9:11; 11:19; Mark 2:16; Luke 5:30; 7:34). Yet he was also somehow completely “set apart” (holy). So, what does it mean to be holy? Listen for more...
