The Great Gatsby or The Great God?
To be sure, the Great Gatsby achieved his "greatness" by getting away with more than most people would, but there is one universal law that he ignored that is a 100% guarantee: Make no mistake, God is not mocked. A person will harvest what they plant. You will reap what you sow.

What's Behind Your Iron Suit?
We pretend we have invincible emotional armor and weapons like sarcasm and denial that can fend off the incessant barrage of destructive circumstances life brings our way. But the truth is that our attempts to be superheroes in a fallen world strip us down to the core as well.

A World Without Christmas
If Jesus was never born, there would be a sorrowful lack of charity and the protection of life, and the United States of America would have just been an unrealized historical dream.

Giving Thanks for Thanksgiving
Every year it seems to me that Thanksgiving is increasingly just a thin slice of celebration sandwiched between the massive marketing machines of Halloween and Christmas. It's become a few days of respite for post school/work burnout and pre Christmahanakwanza preparation!

You Have My Vote!
The freedom to voice our opinions and vote in our election process was paid for with the blood of our Continental soldiers over 200 years ago. But even more importantly, this is a good season to be reminded that your freedom to choose Christ was also purchased with blood.

Be a Light at the Pole!
See You at the Pole may seem like just another Christian gathering, but in reality it is a defining moment not only on your campus, but in your walk with Jesus Christ as well. It is a day where you have a choice to take a stand for your faith, or to wallow in apathy with the crowd.

The Perks of Reaching a Wallflower
Based on the example of Jesus, perhaps we could start to see that our schools are actually hospitals and there are not enough physicians. There are the wallflowers and the popular - jocks and theater kids, hipsters and scene students - but beneath the outward appearances, most are the "confused and helpless."

Aurora Aftermath
How do we anchor ourselves in the aftermath of the Aurora massacre that left us adrift in a sea of anxiety, doubt, fear and questions about the presence of an all powerful and loving God?

The Dark Knight in You
What, exactly, is worth saving in Gotham City? Callous, cruel, corrupt and downright cold blooded might be some of the more positive descriptions for the object of Batman's loyalty. He believes there is something bright and beautiful behind the shroud of darkness in Gotham city

We Need Firefighters!
Even as I write this, I can see the once piercing blue horizon of my beautiful Colorado skies transformed into a thick haze of billowy smoke. In nearly every direction, the flames stretch skyward as they are fed by howling winds that sing a grim tune.

What Makes You Beautiful?
"What Makes You Beautiful" is much more than an internet splash with over 140 million views and rising like the tide. And I may be mistaken, but it feels like "beautiful" is mainly equated with physical appearance

MIB III, Time Travel, and The Book of Life
What if you could travel back in time? Where would you go? What would you do? While you're being entertained by Brolin, Willy and the boys, remember that time travel is not only possible, but has already taken place

The Christian's Ultimate Graduation
I remember watching each of my friends as they crossed the stage to receive their diploma and being smacked with the reality that I had blown chance after chance after chance to share the love of Christ and the gospel of salvation with them.

Loki vs. Jesus
I'm quite certain you'll enjoy The Avengers, but you can take even greater gratification in the fact that the spiritual world created in the Marvel film series is about as real as a ginormous green guy in purple pants.
