To Talk to God

Today’s post is somewhat hard to put into words. My final goal from Lukewarm Obedience is to Talk to God. How do you talk to someone who can’t talk back? Or can He? I am going to do my best to explain talking to God for people who have never done it before. It’s complicated and definitelyContinueContinue reading “To Talk to God”

A Complicated Relationship with Wale – Shine (Album Reflection)

Cinco de Mayo. The Fifth of May. A day of celebration of the Mexican military victory over the French in 1862. Wale originally choose May 5th to release his fifth album, Shine. However, it was released last week on April 28th to lackluster response. The question is why is this celebration moment falling flat? Wale isContinueContinue reading “A Complicated Relationship with Wale – Shine (Album Reflection)”

Echoes of My Father (Giving Up Alcohol)

The older I get, the more I start to fill out my Dad’s shoes. I look in the mirror and see him daily. I speak and I hear his voice. I’ve come to a place of peace about most things but I struggle with becoming him when I look at the bottle. I spoke aContinueContinue reading “Echoes of My Father (Giving Up Alcohol)”

The Power of Naps

Today seemed like a perfect day to write about the little appreciated necessity when we were kids that we wish we could go back and truly enjoy now, SLEEP!

This week is all about physical health. I’ve been reflecting on the things to try to get me to peak physical condition.

Reading the Bible is HARD but Possible :)

Reading the Bible is hard. The language is difficult. Some of the books literally are nothing but numbers and names. The Bible is by far, one of the most difficult books read yet in the last 50 years 3.9 Billion copies were sold (I have like five myself). So, how do you actually read it?LikeContinueContinue reading “Reading the Bible is HARD but Possible :)”

How Rapper’s that are Christian are Helping Me through 2016 and Beyond

I typically would have written another Friday Vibe on music that I have stumbled upon but I just couldn’t this week. I have listened to Joey Bada$$’s All-Amerikkkan Badass and Goldlink’s At What Cost and believe both are amazing projects, but this week I wanted to talk about how music is helping me through a change. ColoringContinueContinue reading “How Rapper’s that are Christian are Helping Me through 2016 and Beyond”

How I Learned How to Pray

For the record, I am probably ten years old deep down inside. I never learned how to pray from someone. I always did the poem prayers but never learned how to make my own. So, when I talk about a relationship with God. This is new for me. Here’s what I learned so far about prayer.ContinueContinue reading “How I Learned How to Pray”

My Christian Life as A Love Story (Pt. 2): Relationship with God

Yesterday, I wrote about a short story about my relationship with God growing up. It started off very oppositional and foreign, but has eventually become more natural and familial as I’ve gotten older. I’ve now gotten to a point where I want more. The question is how do you build a relationship with God? AContinueContinue reading “My Christian Life as A Love Story (Pt. 2): Relationship with God”
