Truth should always hold the power, only then can we have justice

February 7, 2019 by Riley Adam Voth Leave a Comment

It is not in-compassionate to demand evidence beyond reasonable doubt. It is however in-compassionate and wrong to decry and destroy a person’s reputation and life because of wanting to seemingly show empathy to those who have been hurt. It reveals we are not feeling empathy and compassion, we are feeling pride and prejudice.

I Aim To Help Lead A Church That Gives As Much As It Spends On Itself

January 8, 2019 by Riley Adam Voth Leave a Comment

I appreciate America, but our churches could sure be a little less “American” in their spending.

Convictions, Social Media Bickering, And 3 Ways To Do Better

June 16, 2018 by Riley Adam Voth Leave a Comment

Nothing Goes As Planned… And That’s Okay

January 20, 2018 by Riley Adam Voth Leave a Comment

It’s been a minute. Well, 525,600 minutes — give or take a few. (Do you have that song stuck in your head now?) Being a writer is a funny thing. One is free to call themselves a writer whether they have any skill in the craft or not. One can even call himself a writer […]

It very much affects and relates to this blog and my personal development, so it just seemed fitting to also share it here. It’s a long one, and written mainly just for myself as […]

This blog is perhaps best described as a personal journal of snippets, essays and vlogs from my journey of personal-development and wisdom-seeking in the so-called "tension" of both ministry and marketplace work for the glory of God.
