Ready to grow in your faith?

Me, too.  I'd love to share what I'm learning with you.

Here you'll find a collection of blog posts and articles to encourage you on the journey of faith. I hope you'll drop me a line if one of them is particularly helpful.

 

Can I offer that encouragement in person (or virtually)? Let's discuss your needs for a retreat or conference speaker. (Visit my speaking page for additional details and sample messages.)

 

And I've included a variety of other resources to equip you as well, including a free Bible study download, links to all my Our Daily Bread articles, and links to my other published blog posts and books.

 

Dig in, friend! I'm glad you're here.

Free Bible study

To equip you on the journey of faith. 

He is... therefore i am

Is there a difference between what your mind knows to be true about God and what your heart seems to believe?

The He is... therefore i am Bible study (co-authored with Julie Turner) examines six attributes of God's character and encourages participants to embrace the corresponding truths in their own lives.

The free e-book available for download. Printed copies of 10 or more also available by request.

When is your next retreat or conference?

I have been speaking professionally for more than two decades. I still love every minute of serving ministries through spoken messages. Please check out my speaking page to discover some of the topics I'm often asked to address either as a keynote or workshop.

Maybe you or your event speakers need some support crafting and delivering their messages? I've coached TEDx speaker slates and ministry conference speakers and I'd love to come alongside your efforts as a coach, too.

Use the button below to schedule a time for us to chat so I can learn more about your event.

Kirsten's teaching was always well researched, but more importantly, it was delivered with a personal touch that drew her listeners in and helped them apply the Word in their daily lives.

When “Success” is Elusive

Whether due to our American culture or simply the carnal flesh, most of us are hungry for success. Not always in the forms of fame or wealth, sometime we just want a sense of growth or progression. (Or a small assurance that we’re not irretrievably screwing up our children? Anyone?)…

Breaking from the norm: Seven tips for livin’

Spring break is a welcome departure from the rhythms of school, homework and packing lunches. I find comfort in routines, but monotony sets in and I find that occasionally shaking them up reinvigorates me. In keeping with that spirit, today’s blog post is also a shift from my normal themes.…

If God is sovereign, then…

Sometimes my actions defy logic. Any man reading this would probably attribute that statement to the absence of a Y chromosome. Ha! Given that I’m a linear thinker who relies on logic to make decisions, allocate time and [try to] parent my children, ignoring logic seems foolish. And it usually…

Put ’em up

It’s a phrase we commonly associate with being robbed. This posture–hands raised–was the position held by Moses throughout the battle between Israel and the Amalekites. My pastor taught out of Exodus 17 on Sunday and his words have stirred in me a most needful lesson. After calling Joshua to lead…

Pieces and Parts: For when you’re anxious and stressed

Do not be anxious. Easy to say, isn’t it? Harder to do. I wouldn’t normally say I’m a person given to anxiety. I would, however, freely admit that I get overwhelmed. Perhaps they’re not entirely different. God’s Word speaks about anxiety and how He wants us to handle it: …do…

Sweet in the Bitter

The first few weeks of 2015 have been–to put it mildly–a bit bumpy. I don’t have permission from the people involved to share the whole story with you, but what I can say is this: I found the sweet part of what’s been such a bitter taste in my mouth. I’ve…
