Leaves but No Fruit: When Jesus Calls Out Spiritual Show for What It Is | Daily Bread

In Mark 11, Jesus hungers, spots a leafy fig tree promising fruit, finds it barren, and curses it. It withers from the roots.

This story offers us a prophetic sign: outward religion without inward transformation withers. His call isn’t performance, it’s abiding in the Vine.

Jesus doesn’t just expose fruitless leaves. He invites us back to the Vine. Judgment on pretense is mercy in disguise: it clears space for real growth. Slow, often painful, but alive.

“Abide… let the Spirit prune.”

Sunday Sessions: Finding God Under All the Religious Stuff

There is something nobody tells you about deconstruction: sometimes you tear down everything you thought you believed, only to find the thing you were actually looking for was buried underneath all along. This statement will be old news for many. For many, still, it will feel familiar, and as they read on I suspect theyContinueContinue reading “Sunday Sessions: Finding God Under All the Religious Stuff”

Jane Fonda’s Wounds Drive Her Activism. What Drives Yours? | Daily Bread

It has come to my attention that many in the younger generations are confused about Jane Fonda’s recent statements on the Iran strikes. They’re not asking hard questions. They’re following and supporting them blindly. From the crow’s nest, I’d like to sound a warning: that’s a mistake.

Dear Christians | It’s Not About A Building.

It is not about what you do in a building. It is holiness in secret, not performance in public. It’s about who you are when no one is watching.

The Psychology of Political Conviction: Why Facts Often Fail to Change Minds

It’s been quite a while since I’ve shared a psychology-related write-up. Recently, I saw a clip of liberal commentary that prompted a realization: even many otherwise balanced, reasonable people don’t fully understand what’s happening in the psyches of those on the radical ends of the political spectrum. And this phenomenon is not confined to oneContinueContinue reading “The Psychology of Political Conviction: Why Facts Often Fail to Change Minds”

Character Speaks Louder Than Words | Daily Bread

As believers, we are often exposed to teachers or leaders who fail to live by the truths they preach. This is why scripture repetitively reminds us that discernment is essential. This post explores the difference between mistakes and willful choices, how to recognize hypocrisy without judgment, and why believers are called to protect their spiritual health by following truth over charisma. Practical guidance and scripture help readers embody discernment and allow God to shape character from within.

When Compromise Becomes Complicity: Why Speaking Truth Is No Longer Optional

I saw a post recently about Susan Rice advocating for reeducation camps for those who haven’t adopted her worldview. Why this approach? Because persuasion has failed. When you can’t convince people through reason or evidence, the next step becomes force. This reveals something crucial about the current moment: we are witnessing the breakdown of sharedContinueContinue reading “When Compromise Becomes Complicity: Why Speaking Truth Is No Longer Optional”

We Don’t Stop Caring, We Stop Carrying

There comes a point in life when you realize that love and attachment are not the same thing. When we grow apart from those we used to think we couldn’t live without, those who we were merely attached to without depth or reciprocation, we don’t stop caring; we stop carrying. That’s what real forgiveness andContinueContinue reading “We Don’t Stop Caring, We Stop Carrying”
