Need some inspiration for your spiritual life? Each month I write a series of short articles for the Our Daily Journey devotional. You can read my latest articles below. ODJ is an excellent way to start your day on the right foot.
scandalous grace
Imagine you’re a member of an organized crime ring with connections to corrupt city authorities. You discover someone who knows your gang’s every deed. One night you decide to round him up. He has to be silenced. Your thugs bring him to you and you hatch a devious plot. A news conference is held the [...] More...
the Word of God
A person’s words are inseparable from the person speaking them. Think about your own words. They come from you and are uniquely yours. Your words communicate your heart. They come from your inner self—your soul—and express your ideas, thoughts, feelings, and character. Your words are spoken with your voice. They are sounded with your own [...] More...
clear, pure water
A tall, cold glass of water. The condensation on the glass cools my hand. Clear, pure, colorless, odorless; free of man-made chemicals and corruption. I lift the glass to my lips and drink this water that deeply refreshes. A small, gurgling stream in the forest. Silky ripples, floating leaves, water flowing smoothly around rocks and [...] More...
dishing out grace
Mega-successful TV chef Rachael Ray is hardly one of the elite. “She cannot cook like I cook,” commented her rival Martha Stewart. “She cannot craft like I craft.” Yet Rachael has won viewers’ hearts—not least of all because of her charitable approach to her critics. Author and chef Anthony Bourdain felt this charity personally. “We [...] More...
discipline of secrecy
I’m an exhibitionist,” said the surrealist artist Salvador Dali. “Life is too short to remain unnoticed.” And actress Marlene Dietrich once released an album made entirely of the applause recorded at her cabarets—which she frequently played for her friends. The desire for praise is never far from any of us. We want people to applaud [...] More...
exhaust forgiveness?
I had a listener call my radio show recently. “I’ve been a Christian for 5 years, but I haven’t always lived like one,” she said anxiously. “I want to know, does there come a time when God won’t forgive us anymore?” I recounted the following story to her: Jesus had arranged a secret location to [...] More...
proving existence
In his book The Evidence for God, philosopher Paul Moser offers a fascinating case for the existence of God. His basic argument goes like this: If there is a God, this God would need to be worthy of worship. (We can worship lesser gods like Thor, or money, but that doesn’t make them worthy of [...] More...
Artist of the earth
In her book Source, art historian Janine Bourke says that many of the world’s most celebrated artists developed their greatest work when they retreated to nature. Monet painted his Waterlily series after moving to his garden-home at Giverny. Picasso was most creative when based at Cỏte d’Azur in France. Jackson Pollock’s abstract paintings were inspired [...] More...
radical generosity
I never cease to be amazed at the people Jesus put forward as role models. He said children were role models for trust (Mark 10:15); He presented a “sinful woman” as a role model for love (Luke 7:47); He no doubt scandalized His Jewish friends when He suggested a pagan soldier was a role model [...] More...
true contentment
Whenever a friend succeeds,” Gore Vidal once said, ”a little something in me dies.” The words are sad, because a life lived in envy leaves little room for joy. But don’t Vidal’s words reflect our own feelings at times? Every person who longs to be married knows that sinking feeling when yet another friend becomes [...] More...
