The goal of any biblical counselor is to leave someone with light on their situation.

The power of the cross.

Come and see what God has done: he is awesome in his deeds toward the children of man. Psalm 66:5

“For we know him who said, ‘Vengeance is mine; I will repay.’” - Hebrews 10:30

This Easter, I invite you to look at Jesus, consider what he said and did, and ask for yourself what I believe is the most important question you will ever answer: Did he really leave behind an empty tomb? And if he did, what does that mean for you? This video was made possible and in collaboration with my friends at @ChildlikeMedia.

🚨“WE GOT HIM! My fellow Americans, over the past several hours, the United States Military pulled off one of the most daring Search and Rescue Operations in U.S. History, for one of our incredible Crew Office Members, who also happens to be a highly respected Colonel, and who I am thrilled to let you know is SAFE and SOUND!” - President Donald J. Trump 🇺🇸

The message of Good Friday: “The blood of the lamb silences the accuser.” —D. A. Carson

Today, the Secretary of War announced a significant change for military chaplains. While chaplains will retain their rank as officers, they will no longer wear rank insignia—only their religious collar device. In my case, that means only the cross. “Chaplains will now be seen among the highest ranks because of their divine calling.” - SECWAR

@AndrewTWalker I’m SBC and a Navy Chaplain. I’d be interested.

A question for SBC pastors: Starting next fall, I'm thinking of leading a pastor cohort on some issue where Christian ethics interfaces with pastoral ministry. Or maybe a specific topic within Christian ethics applied in a narrow context (e.g., the Ethics of C.S. Lewis). Thinking something like twelve, one-hour sessions over Zoom during the weekday. There would be assigned readings (but no assignments). Capped at 15 participants. Just for pastors of all stripes. Entirely free. Would this be something of interest?

Biblical heroism.

Update from CENTCOM Commander on Operation Epic Fury:

Heavenly Father, I lift up my fellow military members—many whom we personally know—who are even now engaged in combat operations. Lord, as You have trained their hands for war and their fingers for battle, I pray You would strengthen them, grant them wisdom, and show them favor so that they may succeed in their military objectives. Father, I pray for our military leaders—from the Commander in Chief to the youngest junior enlisted—as they carry the weight of countless critical decisions. Grant them clarity of mind, foresight, and steady focus. Lord, for the families here at home and abroad throughout our military community, uphold them by Your Holy Spirit amid the many anxieties they face. Comfort them, sustain them, and surround them with Your peace that surpasses all understanding. And Father, I ask that these operations would be swift, that they would lead to an enduring peace, and that they would help secure a safer world for our children and for generations to come. I close this prayer by acknowledging that Jesus is our true and lasting hope, in combat and in peacetime alike. He is the Savior who has decisively defeated death and who offers life—abundant life now and eternal life forevermore. May these difficult days turn many hearts toward Jesus as their only true source of hope, help, and salvation. I pray all these things in the powerful name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

What a true American looks like.

What it looks like to watch a Christian die well.
