Never forget
Pray with me
September 11, 2026
Heavenly Father,
Today we remember.
Your Word tells us that there is “a time to weep, and a time to mourn” (Ecclesiastes 3:4), and so we refuse to rush past the sorrow of September 11.
We remember the lives that were taken. We remember the families who received phone calls that changed everything. We remember firefighters climbing stairs while others were running down. We remember police officers, first responders, service members, and ordinary citizens who chose courage when fear was everywhere.
Lord, “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble” (Psalm 46:1). You were present in the smoke. You were present in the rubble. You were present in the hospitals, the firehouses, the churches, and the homes where people fell to their knees and cried out to You.
Comfort those who still carry the wounds of that day. Be near to those who lost husbands and wives, fathers and mothers, sons and daughters, brothers, sisters, and friends. Your Word says that You are “near to the brokenhearted” (Psalm 34:18). Draw near again today.
And Lord, help us remember more than tragedy.
Help us remember courage.
Help us remember sacrifice.
Help us remember the preciousness of life.
Help us remember how quickly tomorrow can become today, and how urgently we need to love one another, forgive one another, and walk faithfully before You.
Guard our nation. Give wisdom to those entrusted with its protection. Strengthen those who run toward danger on behalf of strangers. Teach us to pursue justice without surrendering to hatred, courage without arrogance, and vigilance without fear.
Above all, turn our hearts toward Christ.
Remind us that buildings fall, nations shake, and life is a vapor, but Jesus Christ remains the same yesterday, today, and forever. Our ultimate hope is not found in our strength, our security, or even our nation. Our hope is found in the risen Savior who conquered sin and death.
So today we grieve, but not without hope.
We remember those who died.
We honor those who served.
We pray for those who still mourn.
We give thanks for those who sacrificed.
And we ask You to make us people worthy of the freedoms and responsibilities we have inherited.
Lord, let us never forget.
Not so that we may live in hatred, but so that we may live with gratitude.
Not so that we may remain trapped in yesterday, but so that we may walk wisely tomorrow.
Not so that fear would rule us, but so that faithfulness would.
“Teach us to number our days, that we may get a heart of wisdom” (Psalm 90:12).
May we number them well.
In the mighty name of Jesus Christ,
Amen.
One year ago... I've never been so impacted by the death of someone I'd never even met as much as by Charlie's.
Remember with me
September 10, 2026
One year ago, Charlie Kirk was taken from us.
And I keep coming back to one question: What is the legacy of a man?
I think it’s what remains alive in other people after he’s gone.
Charlie awakened courage in other people. He taught truth that we refuse to surrender. The conviction he lived with made us bolder. His faith helped us trust God a little deeper.
That’s legacy.
People talk about “filling the void” when someone dies, but maybe some voids aren’t supposed to be filled. You don’t replace a human being.
The chair is empty. The silence hurts. The absence is painful. But you don’t fill the void.
You learn to live around it.
You grieve. You remember. You tell the stories. You laugh at the memories. You thank God for the time you had.
And then, eventually, grief becomes responsibility.
Because honoring someone cannot simply mean remembering what they did. At some point it has to mean deciding what we will do with what they left us.
Charlie finished his race. Ours isn’t finished.
The greatest tribute we can give him isn’t another photograph, memorial, speech or post.
Maybe it’s refusing to waste the days he no longer has.
Use the days to….
Tell the truth.
Raise your children.
Love your family.
Defend what is good.
Stand when it would be easier to sit.
Speak when silence would be safer.
Open your Bible.
Share the Gospel.
Build something worth leaving behind.
And don’t wait until “someday” to become courageous.
A man’s legacy isn’t measured simply by how many people remember his name.
It’s measured by how many people live differently because he lived.
That’s how you carry someone’s torch.
You don’t become them.
You become more faithful to what God called you to be because you watched them be faithful to what God called them to be.
An assassin could take Charlie’s life.
He could not take back the words Charlie had already spoken.
He could not unteach the people Charlie had taught.
He could not erase the courage Charlie had inspired.
He could not extinguish the faith Charlie confessed.
And he certainly could not defeat the Christ Charlie proclaimed.
So yes, one year later, there is still a void.
There should be.
The void reminds us that Charlie was here.
But so is the fire.
And that’s the thing about a torch:
The man carrying it may fall.
The flame doesn’t have to.
Rest well, Charlie.
We’ll carry it from here.
This is cool

I love this
Last night I was up from 1 AM to 7 AM doing emergency surgeries.
I’m tired.
A few years back, I would have been angry and frustrated that I didn’t get any sleep.
But to my surprise, last night was full of peace.
I’m a long ways off, but God has done something profound in me.
He’s taught me to be content in all circumstances.
The ups and downs of life don’t toss me like waves anymore.
And it’s because of one thing: I’m starting to live for His glory, not my own life.
Bad days are now an opportunity to depend on Him and respond to life in a way that brings Him glory.
This is the power of the gospel.
This is what it means to be free.
This is what Jesus can do for you.

A Prayer of Deliverance
July 29, 2026
Heavenly Father,
I come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, the Son of the living God. You alone are my refuge, my fortress, and my deliverer. Your Word declares that if the Son sets us free, we shall be free indeed. Today I stand on that promise.
Lord, search my heart and expose anything within me that is not pleasing to You. I confess my sins before You and ask for Your mercy. Wash me clean by the blood of Jesus Christ. Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.
Father, deliver me from every chain that seeks to bind me. Break the grip of fear, anxiety, pride, bitterness, lust, addiction, deception, unbelief, and every stronghold that exalts itself against the knowledge of Christ. Let every lie of the enemy be replaced with the truth of Your Word.
In the authority of Jesus’ name, I renounce every work of darkness and every influence that seeks to draw me away from You. I belong to Jesus. I have been bought with a price. I declare that no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and greater is He who is in me than he who is in the world.
Lord, surround me with Your holy angels. Be my shield and my defender. Lead me away from temptation and deliver me from evil. Fill me afresh with Your Holy Spirit, producing in me love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Let my life become a testimony of Your power to rescue and restore.
Teach me to walk in obedience, for true freedom is found in following Christ. Give me the courage to flee what is sinful, the wisdom to discern what is true, and the strength to stand firm when I am tested.
I praise You because You are the God who hears the cries of Your people. You continue to deliver all who call upon Your name. I trust You with my life, my family, my future, and my soul.
I surrender everything to You. Let the peace of Christ rule in my heart, the Word of Christ dwell richly within me, and the glory of Christ be seen through my life until the day I stand in Your presence.
I ask all of this in the powerful and victorious name of Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior.
Amen.
We need revival 🙏
285 years ago today—July 8, 1741—Jonathan Edwards preached the sermon, "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God." As the Spirit of God brought deep conviction, people openly wept, cried out for mercy, and turned to Christ. That message became one of the defining moments of the Great Awakening that helped shape the spiritual character of our nation.
How greatly America needs revival again! Will you join me in praying fervently today that God would send another Great Awakening across our land?

I hadn’t read the Declaration of Independence since high school history class. Ah, yes, history class! In fact we had American history throughout the tenth grade, then world history during our junior year. When I listen to the TikTok crowd spew the nonsense they champion today, I think how easily their knuckle-headed thinking could have been cured with a few good history classes. Alas, I don’t see much hope for the future, as long as the teachers in our urban areas are in the clutches of politicians and unions with a far different agenda from real education.
Now rereading the document for the first time in decades (shame on me for taking so long), I had forgotten that the bulk of the text is a list of grievances suffered by the American colonists at the hands of the king and various elements under his tyrannical regime. What has truly stunned me these 250 years later, however, is how familiar these grievances feel in our contemporary situation. Let’s take a peek at the exact text, and see if anything feels uncomfortably close to home (the “He” refers to King George, of course, and I will use the original spelling and punctuation):
“He has refused to Assent to Laws”
Hmm, every “sanctuary state” governor today for starters…
“He has made Judges dependent of his Will alone”
Hmm, activist judges anybody?
“He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people”
Hmm, 87,000 new armed IRS agents. Ring a bell?
“For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent”
Hmm, ever looked at your tax bill?
“…transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to compleat the works of death, desolation and tyranny…”
Hmm, thirty million military-age males pouring across our open borders from 2020 to 2024…
“He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us”
Hmm, BLM and Antifa riots…
SHORT VERSION: LEAVE US ALONE!
The very essence of the Declaration of Independence is a concerted celebration of God’s gift of our “unalienable” right to “Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.” It was argued, researched, debated yet again, drafted by Jefferson, then edited by Adams, Franklin, and others. Together the bravest men stood together against the storm of tyranny and gambled it all. As I reread it today, I literally shed tears at those miraculous words:
“And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortune and our sacred Honor.”
And then, of course, there were those who shed more than tears. They shed their blood, watched their homes burn, and too many gave the ultimate sacrifice. Whether they formed local militias or joined the Continental Army, colonists now dedicated to the cause, gambled their very lives. One of those Americans was my ninth generation ancestor. He fought in one of the most consequential battles of the American Revolution, the Battle of Cowpens. I am forever honored that his blood runs in my veins.
I know that this will be a joyful and glorious weekend for all of you, God willing. It should also be, if I may presume to say, a solemn one as well. The sacrifices made by simple men and women those many years ago have made these precious rights and this glorious day possible. Take a moment and honor them in your heart. I know I will.
