He also discusses grieving his Godly wife Lois Evans, rebuking his church member Kirk Franklin, the role of women in the church and in the home, racial reconciliation, his Jewish mentor Martin Resnick, and being the first African American to have a Study Bible and a full Bible commentary as well as a successor at Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship. BCNN1 editors believe that when Tony Evans goes on up a little higher to heaven this article will be one of the classic go-to articles to u

I recently published a blog post called “8 Keys to Knowing God’s Will For Your Life.” That post was directed toward helping believers to figure out the big picture in regard to God’s will. For instance, those keys have much to do with God’s plan for you vocationally, in ministry, and in the important stages of life.
This post, on the other hand, lends help for the “smaller” decisions that we make from day to day. In order to cont
Brethren before I get into the context of this article, I want you to know I didn't write this to create any controversy.
Under the guidance and inspiration of the Holy Spirit, this article is written to remind women of how God wants us to be, rather than taking on the world's view. In writing this I am also ministering to myself.
Yes this can apply to all Christians, but this has been specifically written for women, as us ladies hold a special place in the church. We a
This is one of the most difficult questions for Christians to answer.
The “problem of pain,” as the well-known Christian scholar, C.S. Lewis, once called it, is atheism’s most potent weapon against the Christian faith.
All true science and history, if rightly understood, support the fact of God. This evidence is so strong that, as the Bible says: “The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God” (Psalm 14:1).
Most atheists, therefore, without any objective evidence on which to base their fait
Never has uncertainty been any greater than it is today in uncertain times, because as uncertain as things are of this, I am certain that God almighty is still on his throne. I am certain that the Word of God is true from page to page and cover to cover I am certain that every promise, locked int hese pages is good for a thousand generations. I am certain that, even though men on this earth may plan and they may plot - and they may have devised Schemes and try to control the things of this earth
I just want to share just a little bit of Scripture with you, Psalms, 139: 23 and 24
Search me, O God, and know my heart;
Try me, and know my anxieties;
24 And see if there is any wicked way in me,
And lead me in the way everlasting.
Listen, none of us want to think about the things that are wrong in our life are the things that are bad about us. We just rather think about the good stuff. We'd rather ask God to bless us, but sometimes when God wants to bless you after the blessing, he must break
Have you ever made big plans for your life, only to fail to act on them? Or maybe you started with a bang and kept your motivation for a few days, but suddenly lost interest.
It’s easy to lose motivation after the initial excitement wears off. But if you want to be successful, it’s important to keep going. The work isn’t going to get done itself.
Understand why you lose your motivation:
1. The planning phase is more fun than the execution phase. Sitting alone at night and making plans for
Every man has been called by God to biblical manhood, not merely to male-ness. There can be a difference between being a male and being a man Being a man has to do with owning your responsibility under God and having God as your authority. When you forsake that definition ``under God,'', then you have compromised the true definition of manhood and you've actually settled for being a male. It is absolutely critical that you understand like in a good football game. You'Ve been drafted, You've been
So today we are going to talk about characteristics of a godly woman and if you are a woman, what you should strive for, and maybe if you are a guy, if you're a man of God what you should look for in a woman. I'm really excited to Tell you guys about the characteristics that I come up with and what I personally strive to obtain. I have five here, so, let's get into it.
1. So my first characteristic is that she's lost in the Lord. Matthew 6 says that we should seek first, his kingdom and his righ
What are you waiting for? You have plans and aspirations that you’ve been putting off for years. We’re great at putting things off and convincing ourselves that we’ll get them done someday soon. Eventually, we all run out of somedays and our options become more limited. If you’re not enthusiastically pursuing your goals, there’s a reason. And it might not be the reason you think.
Most excuses are actually a form of fear camouflaged as another challenge.
Identify your excuses and take action
