The Question Jesus Lived By That Most Christians Ignore

You Don't Heal By Being More Loved By The World

Your whole life you've been trying to heal by becoming more loved.. By the right person. The right relationship. The right amount of success. The right version of yourself that finally feels worthy enough. And it never works. Because you can't heal from a wound with the same thing that caused it. 1 John 4:7-8 carries the most important revelation Buddy has ever encountered. Not that God loves you — but that God IS love. His nature is love. Which means love isn't something He gives and takes away based on your performance. It's what He is. Always. Toward you. Right now. In the middle of everything you've done and everything you're still fighting. John wrote this as an old man. The last living eyewitness of Jesus. After everything he saw — miracles, crucifixion, resurrection — he came back to one thing. Love. That's not an accident. You don't heal by becoming more loved by the world. You heal by realizing you're already fully loved by God. And once you encounter that love — the counterfeit stops satisfying. The cycles start breaking. Because you finally found what you were looking for all along. "God is love.

I Spent Years Trying To Earn What God Already Gave Me

For years Buddy prayed for purpose. Begged God to reveal his calling. Worked harder. Tried to be more disciplined. More worthy.. And the whole time God was saying — stop praying for what I already put inside you. 2 Timothy 1:9 breaks open the most exhausting lie most Christians believe. That your calling is something you earn. That your identity is something you perform for. T hat if you just do enough — God will finally release what you've been chasing. But grace was given before the beginning of time. Before your mistakes. Before your best days. Before you existed. You can't perform your way into something God decided before creation. Stop striving. Start abiding. The tree doesn't strain to grow fruit. It yields — and produces exactly what it was created for.

Don't Let the Devil Steal What Your Family Needs

Most men think their sin is a private matter.. Just them. Just their struggle. Just their battle behind closed doors. Nobody else's business. But that's the lie that costs the most. Galatians 6 breaks open a truth that will change how you see every single decision you make. You are a tree. And every person in your life — your children, your family, your community — is depending on what your tree produces. Your obedience grows fruit that feeds the people around you. Your sin lets the devil eat what belongs to them. This isn't about guilt. It's about understanding the weight of what you carry. Because there are people in your life right now who are hungry. Who are thirsty. Who are being attacked. And they need what your tree produces more than you know. The question is what are you growing?

If God Is Disciplining You, Here's What It Actually Means

Most people think when life gets hard, God is far away.. The job falls through. The relationship ends. The pressure doesn't stop. And somewhere in the back of your mind you start to wonder — is God even in this? Does he even see me? What if the hardship is the answer? Hebrews 12 breaks open one of the most misunderstood truths in all of scripture. The discipline you're enduring right now isn't punishment. It isn't God turning his back. It's the most personal thing he could ever do — a father correcting the son he loves. Because here's what this verse revealed to Buddy personally.. the men who never get corrected aren't the strong ones. They're the ones who don't belong. If God is disciplining you — that's proof you're his. "The Lord disciplines the one he loves and he chastens everyone he accepts as his son." — Hebrews 12:6 🔥 New devotional every week — subscribe and hit the bell so you don't miss it. 📖 Bible Study — Tues (Women's) | Wed (Men's) | Sat (Coed) — link in bio

The Question Jesus Lived By That Most Christians Ignore

You can go to church. Read your Bible. Pray every day. Serve in ministry. Do everything right.. And still be completely off. Not because you're not trying. But because you're doing it for the wrong reason. And that one thing — the motive behind everything — is exactly what most Christians never stop to check. Jesus lived by a single question. Every teaching. Every miracle. Every moment of opposition. He ran it all through the same filter. And when you understand what that question is — and start asking it yourself — everything in your life begins to realign. John 7:16-18 breaks it open. "My teaching is not my own. It comes from the one who sent me. Whoever speaks on their own does so to gain personal glory. But he who seeks the glory of the one who sent him is a man of truth." — John 7:16-18 This is the question that keeps Buddy's heart aligned with God every single day. From the moment he wakes up. Through every conversation. Every post. Every coaching call. Every decision. What am I doing this for? 🔥 New episode every day this week — start from Monday if you haven't.
