This isn’t about vanity or chasing a look, it’s about honoring God with the body He entrusted to us. We talk candidly about why Christian men often neglect their health, why the church stays quiet on gluttony and discipline, and how our physical lives prea...

Christmas is more than a baby in a manger, it’s the beginning of God’s rescue mission.

In this special episode, I’m sharing my second sermon preached at New Life Community Church in Cicero—a message titled “The Gift of Being Present.”
