In my 16 years of marriage I have experienced and caused several issues related to my porn use. These issues are not a death sentence but the recovery process is not a short one. The Bible says to “flee from sexual immorality” (1 Corinthians 6:18). Before we can go any further we must recognize that […]
When I talked with you or preached, I didn’t try to prove anything by sounding wise. I simply let God’s Spirit show his power. That way you would have faith because of God’s power and not because of human wisdom.When I talked with you or preached, I didn’t try to prove anything by sounding wise. […]

Here are my notes based on my own reading and life experience. For ease, I’m going to go […]
If you’re like me, you often struggle with prayer. Maybe you struggle with finding the time, or choosing to make the time. Maybe you struggle with what to say. Peter Beskendorf, a barber in Wittenberg, had a similar problem. But by God’s providence, he happened to be Martin Luther’s barber. Knowing the Reformer’s reputation as […]
