Sit Down, Be Humble | @ryanmw92 @trackstarz

What’s going on everyone!! Man, this week, I’m going to keep being honest and real. I want to talk a little in depth about pride. When I think of pride, I think about hubris (having excessive pride), rather, thinking too highly of ourselves. The dictionary defines pride as, “a feeling or deep pleasure or satisfaction derived from one’s own achievements, the achievements of those with whom one is…

Radical Praise | @ryanmw92 @trackstarz

What’s going on everyone!! Man, this week, God has been wrecking my heart around the topic of radical praise. Last Sunday at church, and up to today, God really impressed on my heart how radical His love is for us. The love of God is so beautiful because Jesus not only took the punishment for our death in he cross, but He went into the depths of hell to take back the authority so that we would…

Power in the Unknown | @ryanmw92 @trackstarz

What is going on everyone!! To be honest, it feels like it has been a while since I have written a post. So much has happened in my life, and the main theme is that God is showing me how to have confidence and power in the unknowns that life throws our way. We all have goals and dreams for our lives and futures. Sometimes though, life takes crazy turns and can throw off our groove. I just want to…

The Same God | @ryanmw92 @trackstarz

What is going on everyone!! So this week, I just wanted to encourage us all around the fact that the same God that made the universe, and worked miracles in people in the past, is the same God that is able to work miracles in us today. We can be confident that Jesus is not done with our generation. He is fully present with us, even now.

In the Bible, Moses was leading the people out of slavery to…

Dream Again | @ryanmw92 @trackstarz

”If you shoot for the moon, you will land on the stars”. Growing up, I heard that a lot. I was a dreamer. I dreamed as a small child of playing in the NBA. I wanted to be like Michael Jordan, or Allen Iverson. I even watched old games of Spudd Webb, gaining a massive desire to play professional basketball. Did it happen?? No. BUT something I want us to take away from this, is that God longs for…

The Call To Be | @ryanmw92 @trackstarz

What’s going on everyone!! So for this week, I was hit by this statement: God calls us to be, not to do. We get this mentality that when we become a Christian, we get into God’s good graces as a result of doing good deeds. Helping people and serving at your church are wonderful aspects to the faith walk, don’t get me wrong, but if we are lacking a heart for God to be glorified over any personal…

Freedom to Fail | @ryanmw92 @trackstarz

Hey what’s going on everyone!! I apologize for lacking the blog posts on here. I just had a thought come to my head, inspired from a conversation with my dad. He told me that the only way to grow, is by failing. You learn what not to do, and that in itself is a learning experience.
When we mess up, we learn what NOT to do. When we learn, we have that wisdom to pass on to other people, with the…
