Are you satisfied where you are in your Christian walk? Me neither.
We have good company: Paul wasn’t satisfied either.
Paul says he forgot what was behind and pressed forward to what was ahead (Philippians 3:14). That is what we need to do also.
This website is dedicated to pressing on: finding hope ahead, forgetting past sins and victories, overcoming barriers, handling trials, learning how. And moving forward together.
My hope is that we can help each other energetically pursue Christlikeness. I hope we can challenge ourselves and each other. I hope we can learn from each other. I hope this site will become a conversation rather than a one-way talk. I don’t want to be on a soapbox; I want to be part of a dedicated group of Christians pressing on.
Let’s go!

- He is Worthy April 20, 2025Jesus Christ is worthy He lived a perfect life. He was (is) God’s perfect Lamb, sacrificed for our sins.

- Switch Tracks March 30, 2025A favorite childhood memory is watching my older brother play with his model trains.

I was there with big eyes wishing I could play.… […]Pressing On Together

- Much More March 16, 2025God—Father, Son, Holy Spirit—is infinite. We can, and should, work to know Him by diligently searching His revelation in His Word. But He is totally other than us, holy, infinite, self-existent, perfect, and we cannot truly grasp Him. His greatness is unsearchable. Great is the Lord, and highly to be praised, and His greatness is… […]Pressing On Together
- How Long? March 9, 2025Q: How long, Lord? A: As long as necessary. ~~~ God is in control of the length of our trials and the depth of our trials. Trials last as long as our loving, sovereign, Savior deems necessary. Trials are as hard as required for His purpose. Remember and Consider and Pray Remember God loves you,… […]Pressing On Together
- For Me, to Live Is … March 2, 2025For me, to live is _____. Fill in the blank! When I was younger, I might have said alpine skiing, or racquetball, or aviation. But, of course, other priorities were mixed in. Public school, college, graduate school. Husband. Family. Career. But this is a crucial question, especially for believers. What do I say now? What… […]Pressing On Together
- There is a Righteous Judge February 23, 2025This post stemmed from horror. (You can pick specifics.) Evil is wicked, dreadful, revolting, is … What’s more, people are proud of their evil deeds, and people are proud of others’ evil deeds. And yet we shouldn’t be surprised. The Bible tells us evil will increase. And it is. And it is going to get… […]Pressing On Together
