  📖 Why Is the Name of Jesus the Only One They Mock? By James Langston There’s a question that keeps pressing on my spirit—one that I believe every believer ought to ask: Why is the name of Jesus Christ so ridiculed, mocked, maligned, lampooned, and lambasted? You can scroll through social media, flip through films, read comments online, or sit in on classrooms—and you’ll hear it. The world doesn't hesitate to use the name of Jesus as a punchline, a curse word, or a cultural controversy. Yet strangely, you don’t hear the names of Buddha, Muhammad, Confucius, or any other so-called “spiritual figures” dragged through the same mud. So again I ask— why Jesus? Because His name still holds power. Power that convicts hearts. Power that exposes lies. Power that frees captives. Power that leads people to truth— real, eternal truth . And that truth is offensive to the darkness of this world. ✝️ The Closer We Get to the End… As we approach the closing chapters of this age, ...

  🕯️ The Echo of a Grandmother’s Prayer: A Legacy That Lives On By James Langston There are some people who shape your life so deeply that their presence becomes a part of your spiritual DNA. For me, that person was my great-grandmother. I spent countless hours by her side—watching, learning, and absorbing wisdom that no textbook could ever teach. But it was her prayers that marked me the most. Not loud or showy, but powerful and persistent. The kind of prayers that you feel deep in your bones. The kind that softened even the hardest parts of my heart and slowly opened me to the love and truth of Jesus Christ. She taught me how to pray… and how to live. She taught me that love wasn’t just an emotion—it was a commitment. That friendship required loyalty. That real strength wasn’t about domination, but about kneeling in prayer when others would walk away. Her kitchen smelled like cornbread and faith, and her words had weight. Over the years, I’ve met so many others who’ve sai...

  👁️ GLANCE – A New Thriller by James Langston What If One Glance Could Change Everything? There are moments in life that change us forever. For Dr. Eugene Karl Howard , that moment came after a near-fatal accident—when he woke up with an inexplicable ability: he could suddenly see genetic anomalies in the people around him, just by looking into their eyes. At first, he believes it’s a miracle. A gift. A way to help and heal. But what he sees soon leads him down a dark corridor of hidden experiments, population-level genetic manipulation, and buried secrets powerful people will do anything to protect. 🧬 A Storyline Rooted in Today’s Questions In a world captivated by medical breakthroughs, digital surveillance, and artificial intelligence, Glance raises a chilling and timely question: What happens when the line between medical advancement and moral accountability disappears? As a mystery-sci-fi faith-based thriller , Glance isn’t just entertainment. It’s an invitatio...

  🙈 Are You Ashamed of Jesus Christ? When Good Isn’t Good Enough, and Faith Must Be More Than a Facade We’re living in a time of blurred lines. The moral compass of society is spinning, and so is our ability to discern who truly follows Jesus Christ. It’s becoming increasingly complex to distinguish the Christian in conviction from the Christian in camouflage . We’re reminded of the old Memorex cassette commercial that asked, “Is it live, or is it Memorex?” Today, the question is: Is it real faith… or just a religious performance? ✅ What Looks Like Christianity… But Isn’t You might go to church. You may avoid the “big sins” like lust, greed, envy, wrath, gluttony, sloth, or pride. You might treat your family right, drink responsibly, and keep your promises. These are admirable traits, yes—but none of them make you a Christian. Being moral does not equal being born again. Being kind does not equal being Kingdom-minded. Being "good" is not the same as being sav...

  🇺🇸 We Inscribed "In God We Trust"... But Forgot to Inscribe Him on Our Hearts There is a stillness in the air—one that feels like the quiet before a storm. And yet, the storm is already here . We are a nation paralyzed with fear —fear of the unknown, fear of failure, fear of truth, and most of all, fear of surrendering to the God we say we trust. Everywhere you look, people are fighting for a cause. We protest, we post, we shout, we sign. But after the banners come down and the speeches end, we’re still losing the battle. Why? Because we’ve forgotten that true change doesn’t begin in Washington—it begins in the heart . ⚠️ The Real Crisis We’ve lost faith in our leaders, yet we’ve stubbornly refused to put our faith in the Lord of Lords . We’ve etched “In God We Trust” into our currency… but not into our conscience . Not into our culture . Not into our character . We want revival without repentance, progress without prayer, blessings without obedience. Many ...
