(Post by: Lilly Hobbs) I sat down at the computer yesterday to start writing a blog post. As I typed each letter to form the sentences, I felt like it just wasn’t right. I thought it was what the Lord wanted me to write about, but I wasn’t writing with the same passion and excitement... Continue Reading →

(Post by: Lilly Hobbs) I shared a little bit in the last post about how one of our dearest friends is sitting in a Fort Worth, Texas jail cell right now. We went down to see him a couple weeks ago, and I have a few thoughts I’d like to share with y’all. A little... Continue Reading →

(Post by: Lilly Hobbs) Have you seen all the cute coffee mugs, bags, and sweatshirts lately? Have you heard the saying that’s been going around? Did you see the message that’s recently been shared all over social media? The world has recently been putting this message out to everyone and it is “supposed” to fix... Continue Reading →

(Post by: Lilly Hobbs) The Lord gave me a really powerful message last week. My Bible Study group was meeting, and I was waiting on the Lord to give me something to discuss with them later that afternoon. As I was praying, the Lord just made it clear that I was supposed to talk about... Continue Reading →

(Post by: Lilly Hobbs) Have you ever been hurt by someone? Maybe somebody in church has hurt you. Maybe your best friend lied to you about something. Maybe, someone you have loved and poured so much of your time into doesn’t seem like they care the same way about you. Yeah. I think we have... Continue Reading →

(Guest post by: Michelle Hobbs) I was walking in the main hallway of a nursing home recently, heading to see one of my patients. A gentleman stopped me at the bulletin board and asked me to read to him the riddle posted there. It said, “The more you have of this, the less you can... Continue Reading →

(Post by: Lilly Hobbs) This past Sunday, as we were on our way to church, my Dad happened to turn on a podcast discussion. They were talking about peace and what it should look like for Christians if we are truly living in peace. It was very interesting to me because as I look around... Continue Reading →

(Post by: Lilly Hobbs) Have you ever wanted to share the Gospel but didn’t know how or where? Maybe you have had the intention of telling someone about Jesus, but you just don’t have any clue when or where to do it. Let me tell you, that’s ok! As we discuss this topic further, what...

(Post by: Lilly Hobbs) June 27th, 2019 will forever be one of my favorite memories. I had gotten up really early that morning because my dad and I were headed to a seminary for the day to take the students of a class out of the building to pray with people and share the Gospel....

(Post by: Lilly Hobbs) In our last post, “Where Did Church Go Wrong”, we looked at how the Church has gotten hung up on human traditions and philosophy and has lost Jesus along the way. Today, I thought it would be interesting to do a follow up post and examine how the Church can get... Continue Reading →

(Post by: Lilly Hobbs) As my family and I have done ministry across the United States, I have come to realize that many churches are dying off. So many of the leaders are discouraged. They can’t get any new people in their doors; especially young people. No matter how many programs they try, they cannot... Continue Reading →

(Guest post by: Pastor Gerald Steele) Thank you, Lilly, for inviting me to share a few thoughts on your blog. I’m honored! I love the emphasis on “The Few” and your call for others like yourself to live a life of “reckless abandon for the Lord.”  Your call for THE FEW to remain faithful to... Continue Reading →

(Post by: Lilly Hobbs) I think that the American Church, and all Christians, should be scared of something: Silence. As Christians, we are way too quiet about what we know to be right and wrong according to the Word of God. From things like gay marriage and abortion to bad movies, TV shows, and unacceptable...

(Post by: Lilly Hobbs) My dad listens to this song by Montgomery Gentry called, “Some People Change.” For some reason, the Lord has been putting this song on my heart, and I really feel like I need to write about it. A lot of Christians struggle in this area. I don’t think that God’s children... Continue Reading →

(Post by: Lilly Hobbs) Does it sometimes seem like you’re just having a really boring week? A week where it seems mundane and dull? I think we can all feel like that sometimes. However, as Christians, I think that we may not be living how Jesus wants us to live if we are always bored... Continue Reading →

(Post by: Lilly Hobbs) Have you ever stopped and thought about what is actually true? I mean, look at our world right now. We are told that murdering babies is perfectly ok. We are told that we can do anything that pleases us as long as it makes us happy and doesn’t harm anyone else,... Continue Reading →

(Post by: Lilly Hobbs) In 2018, I felt like God was calling me to be more intentional in my personal Bible study. I had heard of  people choosing to have a focus word that they studied in depth, and I thought I’d give that a shot. My 2018 focus word was ‘’Rock’’. However, I also... Continue Reading →

(Guest post by Michelle Hobbs) “Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.”    Hebrews 4:16 I wonder if we truly understand what a privilege it is for us to pray directly to God; and beyond that, have a promise...

My passion is to see people make Jesus #1 in their life. That’s it. I don’t have some crazy agenda or goal for this blog except to challenge people to make Him first in their life. It is my belief that if we make Jesus first in every single thing we do, we will do... Continue Reading →
