Can we take our faith into the voting booth without handing our conscience over to a political party?

I believe we can. But it requires admitting something we don’t say often enough: supporting a party or candidate doesn’t mean we agree with every policy, agenda, or action. We should be able to acknowledge those disagreements without feeling obligated to defend everything our side does.

I’m not qualified to tell you how to vote, and I don’t share my ballot choices. I do care about whether following Jesus is shaping our decisions and whether we can still love the neighbor who reaches a different conclusion. That neighbor will still be there when the election is over.

That’s what I explore in my new article, How to Cast a Jesus-Centered Ballot. The guiding thought is simple: principles before personalities and politics.

You can read the article or listen to the audio version at the link below. While you’re there, please subscribe to my Substack for more of my writing about faith, recovery, leadership, and everyday life. I’d appreciate you sharing it with someone who’s wrestling with these same questions.

Putting principles before personalities and politics while keeping faith, conscience, and compassion at the center of our vote.

Someone asked a 99-year-old woman a simple question: “Do you believe God is real?”

What followed was one of the most beautiful expressions of faith I’ve heard in a long time.

Here’s a woman who has lived nearly an entire century. Think about that for a moment. Ninety-nine years of laughter and tears, love and loss, celebrations and heartbreak, prayers answered and questions that may never have been answered.

And when she’s asked about God, she doesn’t need a theological debate or an elaborate explanation. She speaks from the heart, drawing on a lifetime of what she’s seen, heard, and personally experienced.

What struck me most was how articulate, passionate, and deeply personal her response was. This wasn’t someone repeating what she’d been told to believe. This was a woman speaking about a faith that has accompanied her through nearly a century of living.

I’ve spent much of my life talking with people about faith, doubt, and the questions we all wrestle with. And sometimes the most powerful testimony isn’t found in a sermon or a theology book. It’s found in the words of someone who has lived long enough to know that life isn’t always easy, but still has a remarkable sense of God’s presence.

Take a minute and listen to her. Whether you’re a believer, a skeptic, or somewhere in between, there’s something extraordinary about hearing 99 years of life experience speak with this much conviction.

Some things are worth listening to. This beautiful lady is one of them. ❤️🙏

The Difference Between Peace and Comfort

Day 295

We often confuse peace with the absence of difficulty.

We think we’ll find it when the problems disappear, relationships improve, or life finally goes according to plan.

But comfort depends largely on our circumstances. Peace can exist even when those circumstances remain uncertain.

Faith may describe peace as a trust deeper than understanding. Reason may recognize it as the ability to remain grounded amid life’s challenges. Both remind us that a meaningful life doesn’t require a trouble-free life.

Perhaps peace isn’t found by escaping every storm, but by discovering that the storm doesn’t have to define us.

Take this with you: Don’t mistake the absence of problems for the presence of peace.

The Courage to See Things Differently

Day 294

Sometimes the greatest changes in life begin not with a new circumstance, but with a new perspective.

The situation hasn’t changed. The people haven’t changed. The challenges may still be there. Yet something shifts when we begin looking through a different lens.

Faith invites us to see possibilities beyond our limitations. Reason challenges us to examine assumptions that may no longer serve us. Both remind us that our first interpretation isn’t always the whole truth.

Perhaps growth begins when we become willing to see something familiar in an entirely new way.

Take this with you: Sometimes a different perspective reveals possibilities that were there all along.

I love this perspective from Tim Allen on his journey through the Old Testament, especially his reflections on the Book of Job.

After spending more than a year studying the Scriptures, he came away with something I think we could all benefit from remembering: God doesn’t owe us an explanation for everything we don’t understand.

Job is one of the most fascinating books in the Bible because it confronts a question humanity has wrestled with forever. Why do good people suffer while people who do terrible things sometimes seem to prosper?

And here’s what’s interesting. God never really gives Job the explanation he’s looking for. Instead, He reminds Job just how much there is about creation, eternity, and life itself that we simply cannot comprehend.

I’ve come to believe that faith isn’t having an answer for every question. It’s learning to trust God even when the answers don’t come.

But what really struck me about Allen’s reflection is the shift from asking, “Why is this happening?” to asking, “How can I help?”

That’s a pretty powerful change in perspective.

We can spend our entire lives demanding explanations for things beyond our understanding, or we can spend our lives making a difference with what God has placed right in front of us.

Maybe the better question isn’t always why God allows something to happen, but what He would have us do in response.

Less time demanding answers. More time being the answer to somebody else’s prayer.

That’s worth thinking about.

This little baby has been on the planet for approximately five minutes, and he’s already figured out something the rest of us have been trying to learn our entire lives. 😂

Leg crossed, completely relaxed, not a worry in the world.

No bills, no meetings, no emails, and absolutely no intention of getting up anytime soon.

The baby is not even a day old and already enjoying the first morning of retirement.

Welcome to the world, little person. You’ve got the right idea! 😂❤️
