Saturday // Build :: Honor
Title: Honor others Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor one another above yourselves. – Romans 12:10 Men who give honor to others often receive it back. They create an atmosphere of devotion, love, and respect. They are thermostats instead of thermometers. We need you to be like this. Your family needs you […]
Friday // Steel :: Passion
Title: Something Fresh Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. – Deuteronomy 6:5 If you see passion in someone’s life, you’ll usually find something fresh, new, and filled with mystery. And the inverse is true… When I find my walk with God growing stale, stagnant, or less passionate, it’s usually because I’ve slipped into a routine that is divorced from trusting God with the […]
Tuesday // Fuel :: Wisdom
Title: What wisdom provides Wisdom will save you from the ways of wicked men, from men whose words are perverse. – Proverbs 2:12 AW Tozer once said, “Wisdom provides a path for the highest good, for the greatest number, for the longest time.” I like that. It gives me something to aspire to. Because we […]
Saturday // Build :: Encouragement
Title: Be deliberate Encourage one another daily, as long as it is called “Today” – Hebrews 3:13a Today is all we have with those that we love.

Sunday // Sacrifice :: Worship
Title: Just an Act Offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God – this is your spiritual act of worship. – Romans 12:1b Men act in all sorts of ways. We can act tough, strong, dependable, profitable…even spiritual. As men, it is easy to “act” spiritually. We might define it differently, but […]
Saturday // Build :: Encouragement
Title: Called to Influence Encourage one another daily, as long as it is called “Today,” – Hebrews 3:13a “The last time we talked, I was yelling at him.” That’s what she told me at 2:35 a.m. while her brother was in the operating room. One of his stints had collapsed, and the doctors were working […]
Friday // Steel :: Example
Title: Deep Souls Set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity. – 1 Timothy 4:12b When Paul wrote these words to Timothy, he was writing to a young pastor of a new church. It was a lot to ask of a young man who was probably […]
Sunday // Sacrifice :: Acknowledge
Title: Prepare for the moment Whoever acknowledges me before others, I will also acknowledge before my Father in heaven. – Matthew 10:32 When Jesus shared these words, he anticipated things getting hard…really hard. There will come a time in your life when you will have to take a stand based solely on your relationship with […]
Tuesday // Fuel :: Word
Title: The word shapes For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart! – Hebrews 4:12 Alive. Active. I’m not sure how many people think this way about the Bible. The […]
Saturday // Build :: Honor
Title: Have you felt the nudge? Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor one another above yourselves. – Romans 12:10 You can’t honor the people around you if you are preoccupied with a screen. There have been countless times I have felt the nudge of the Holy Spirit prompting me to put my […]
