Dabo Swinney shares the Gandhi quote that became the foundation of his program and why your beliefs determine your destiny. "Your beliefs become your thoughts. Your thoughts become your words. Your words become your actions. Your actions become your habits. Your habits become

In a survivor’s healing, victims of abuse need to tell their story. They may be afraid, slow to speak, or uncertain of their words. But as we listen and bear witness to their trauma, we grant them dignity, safety, and comfort. Doing so is a reversal of the experience of trauma.

There is no need to panic when you’ve hit the wall of your limits if grace has eternally connected you to the Lord’s limitless resources of help and strength.

Hey, you. Yes, you. We know today could have been hard for you and we want ya to know you did a great job. Life can get bumpy sometimes but know that we’re proud of you for going out there and doing your best. Tomorrow will be here soon and we bet you'll have an amazing

As children of God, we can rest because our hope is not in the mountains. Our hope is not in the seas. Our hope is not in a comfortable life and a predictable schedule. Our hope is in the Lord, the Creator and Ruler over the mountains and the seas, and our Father, the God of

Myth: The presence of good deeds, kind words, and a good reputation means a person could not possibly be an abuser. Truth: An abuser often cultivates such things for the sole purpose of deception.

To see abuse as simply a wrong action that needs to be stopped is to minimize and externalize what is a cancer of the soul and does great damage to the abused. ALL abuse is sinful spillage from the heart of the abuser and exposure of the cancer deep within.

Such actions have old, deep roots. They are not an impulsive decision out of the blue. They are not a mistake, an “oops.” These are not simply behaviors. They are the hideous fruit of corrupt roots.

We fail to love both victim and perpetrator when we think repentance involves only an apology, which then serves as a ticket back to wherever the perpetrator wants to go.

“Worship the LORD with all your heart. Don’t turn away to follow worthless things that can’t profit or rescue you; they are worthless.” (1 Samuel 12:20–21) To exalt, follow, and serve anything other than Him is futile and foolish. He alone is worthy of our whole-hearted worship.

A kind friend sent me this quote from my book Incomparable: 50 Days with Jesus: “When you wonder if you can keep pressing into the pain, remember what you’ve seen here. Go to Gethsemane. Ponder the crushing He endured for your sins and mine. And press on.” Day 22,

In all honesty, this hurts. Hubert Davis poured his heart and soul into UNC basketball. A program he loved dearly. Sad to see it end this way. Thank you, Coach Davis. You've earned your rightful place in Tar Heel history. #GoHeels

Thank you, Coach Davis! 🏀🐏

On the worst day of Hubert Davis’s professional life, he thanked Jesus for the opportunity He gave him. I wonder how many of us would do the same thing if put in his position. The simple truth is that the world would be a better place if it were full of people like Hubert

We have often blamed those who suffer for their trauma; we have failed to recognize that systems can be corrupt and power abused and that, like our Lord, many people in this world suffer from totally undeserved injustice and trauma.

I often think that the ability to easily explain suffering is the clearest indicator of never having suffered.

For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, so that you by his poverty might become rich. 2 Corinthians 8:9

We have a tendency to preach to ourselves less than what the Bible says is true, especially in suffering.
