In the world, we have tribulation. You can't escape it while you are alive on planet Earth. But you can overcome and have peace in the midst of tribulation. That's the promise of Jesus! But how can we have it and KEEP it. John me for Today's Daily Word & Prayer as we look at these promises John 16:33, Romans 5:1, Isaiah 26:3, and Philippians 4:6-7.

It's been quite a journey these past four months since Jesus took my wife to heaven. It's good to step back and look at those months in perspective. Join me for Today's Daily Word & Prayer as I share what God has been doing in me, and hopefully, you'll discover some ways He can work in your life as well.

There's incredible power in the word of God. The truths of Scripture have the capacity to change our lives for the better. But not everyone who hears the word responds positively. Jesus warned us of this in the parable of the Sower. Join me for Today's Daily Word & Prayer to learn more. Tom

God called me into church leadership as a young man. There was great encouragement along the way, but also painful trials when I was (severely) tempted to give up. Join me for Today's Daily Word & Prayer to learn more about my story and how God used both encouragement and trials to shape my soul.

I'm often asked on campus how I learned the Bible. People are quite surprised to discover I didn't attend a Bible school or seminary, but I was spiritually immersed in a culture that truly valued the word of God. Were there things I missed out on? Yes. But I caught a love for the Scripture that is sadly lacking in many of today's churches and in many of today's Christian leaders. Join me for Today's Daily Word & Prayer for a very important message on how to learn the Bible.

God is personal, and He has a personal plan for each of us. It's encouraging for me to look back and see the hand of God forming me into the man I am. I believe it will be encouraging for you as well. Join me for Today's Daily Word & Prayer to learn more.

All of us have been hardwired by God to worship and even though worship is about God, there's a benefit to us that most people aren't aware of. When we worship, God transforms our lives to become more like Him! Join me for Today's Daily Word & Prayer to discover how this works.

God promises to work all things together for our good if we love Him and are called according to His purpose. I think this promise is often misunderstood, and if so, it can lead to disappointment with God. Join me for Today's Daily Word & Prayer to discover what this promise really means and how it can be a source of real encouragement in your life.

I was taught that everyone is a child of God, but that's not what Jesus Christ taught. If you are a child of God, you have a special, incredible privilege, and the benefits are far more than you can ever imagine! Join me for Today's Daily Word & Prayer to learn more
