“To this end I labor, struggling with all his energy, which so powerfully works in me” (Colossians 1:29). We must make every effort to be righteous, to obey Him. Yet all the while we must do this appealing to His strength, not our own.

My latest book All God’s Creatures: What the Bible Says About Animals, Heaven, and the New Earth will be released from Tyndale House on November 17. It was a labor of love for the past three years—especially love for God first, and Nanci second.

It’s been almost three years since author Tim Keller entered the presence of Jesus. As is said of Abel, so it can be said of Tim: “he still speaks through his faith” (Hebrews 11:4, CSB). This video clip, and what Tim says about how the resurrection changes how we face challenges, is just so powerful.

Out of the appallingly bad came what was inexpressibly good. And the good trumps the bad because the bad was temporary while the good is eternal. God’s love and grace come to us soaked in divine blood.

We may sometimes be able to fool ourselves and others, but never God. He knows what we’re thinking about and what we’re doing. And it is His appraisal of our life that ultimately matters.

John Calvin said, “While all men seek after happiness, scarcely one in a hundred looks for it from God.” One reason is because we’re sinners. Another is because the average person wouldn’t imagine that happiness could be found in God.

On March 13, I lost a dear friend in John Perkins; on March 19, I lost a very close friend, Carlos “Chuck” Norris (I will eventually write my thoughts about him, now is just too soon); and tomorrow, Saturday, March 28 is the fourth anniversary of Nanci's death.

Our grief has an expiration date. The world as it is now is under the curse, but God will lift it once and for all: “No longer will there be any curse” (Revelation 22:3).

The Good News is not about how great you and I are (thank God for that). It’s about how great Jesus is and the wonderful things He’s done for us.

The international reach of our ministry has been so much further than I ever could have imagined back when Nanci and I started Eternal Perspective Ministries in 1990. We now have articles on our website in 34 languages besides English.

Last Friday, March 13, 2026, at age 95, Dr. John Perkins, a man I consider a dear friend, went to be with the Lord and Savior he loves. There are perhaps three dozen people I can name that have truly changed my life. John Perkins is one of them.

While my novel Safely Home shows some suffering in China, it’s ultimately an encouraging book, full of hope and anticipation. I pray readers will come away with a greater love for their brothers and sisters overseas, and with a deeper sense of anticipation for Heaven.

I found God the Father 100% trustworthy, an infinitely powerful provider who created the universe itself, not only for His glory but also for my good, as His son. I believed Him to be, and do now more than ever, personally and genuinely interested in my life.

Given the price Jesus paid on the cross to offer us salvation, He has the right to say difficult things such as He is the only way to the Father and we are hell-bound without Him. That message is not popular and never will be. Our job isn’t to edit the message, but to deliver it.
