Randy talks about teaching his own children about giving, speaking to a group of Physicians (both secular and Christian) on giving.

Jesus says, “It is more blessed to give than to receive” (Acts 20:35). As long as I still have something, I believe I own it. But when I give it away, I relinquish the control, power, and prestige that come with wealth. At the moment of release, the light turns on. The magic spell is broken. My mind clears, and I recognize God as owner, myself as servant, and other people as intended beneficiaries of what God has entrusted to me.

Before creatures ever came into the equation, what was God like? His basic persona and His character, that’s who He is. 

The Desiring God National Conference in Minneapolis this past weekend was magnificent precisely because it celebrated His glory. 

Randy discusses whether he thinks there may be coffee in Heaven, from an interview with pastor Greg Laurie at Harvest Church in Riverside, CA, November 2011.

Even though as Christians we affirm the reality of the spiritual realm, sometimes we succumb to naturalistic assumptions that what we see is real and what we don’t see isn’t. 

In The Goodness of God, I tell the story about my high school friend Greg Coffey, who died in a horrible accident in 1971, shortly after he and I both became Christ-followers.

If you spell God with a capital G you will always spell tragedy with a lowercase t. 

A man working with one of our ministry partners in the Middle East recently attended a men’s conference in a closed country, and shared this video with us. He writes, “While I was at the conference, I was again deeply encouraged by how God is working. And I was moved to see the deep hunger to study God's word. As I sat next to one young leader during a discussion, I noticed his Bible. It is perhaps the most beautiful Bible I've seen. I took a short video which I have attached here for you... It’s just a few seconds long and I believe you'll be encouraged to see it.” Learn more about this ministry at www.elam.com.

When the hard things come upon us, we tend to use them as a way of saying, “This is so bad, that if God really is in charge and He sent this to me—or even just allowed this to come into my life—He’s being cruel to me.”
