U in 5: Visualizing the Future

I was proud to have my son Nathan preach this past weekend at The Summit. He took the church deeper into the U in 5 series, helping people pause and examine where they’re at vs. where they could be! As he said, everyone is on a path, and we’re all going to end up somewhere. Remember […]

Find Me Dreaming, Singing, & on My Knees

I explained on Tuesday how God wants to find you faithful and grateful. Did you know that He also wants to find you dreaming, singing, and on your knees? In regard to dreaming, I’m not talking about the selfish kind but the godly kind! Psalm 37:4 (ESV) says, “Delight yourself in the LORD, and he will […]

Who’s That Baby?

Christmas is drawing closer, and so many things remind me of the birth of Jesus. Our key verse at church yesterday was Hebrew 1:1-3. “Long ago God spoke many times and in many ways to our ancestors through the prophets. And now in these final days, he has spoken to us through his Son. God promised […]

Signs: Find the Extraordinary in the Ordinary this Christmas

While Christmas is full of surprises, there are also a lot of familiar aspects to it. Sometimes, familiarity can breed contempt! You might find yourself asking, “What is left to be said that hasn’t been said before?” When you hear biblical Christmas stories, sometimes you really don’t hear them at all…because you’ve heard them so […]

Finding Faith Amidst Disappointment

Sometimes what’s packaged as disappointment is really destiny. I can imagine the disappointment Joseph felt when he found out Mary was having a baby. But he discovered he was a part of the most beautiful birth in the world. Sometimes God makes the verdict first and the evidence comes later. “Now faith is the substance of […]

The Benefit of the Doubt: Choosing to Walk by Faith

Isn’t it amazing to think how Jesus went from manger to majesty? It was hard for some people to believe that a small child could fulfill the prophecy of a Savior. The first chapter of Matthew signifies that heaven had hit a dead end. Joseph and humanity were at a dead end as well! The […]

Your approach to money and possessions is central to your spiritual life. Look at the story of Zacchaeus in the Bible. As someone with a reputation as a dishonest tax collector, he definitely put his possessions/money before anything else.

Exclusive Live Webinar – “How to Help Your Teen Break Free of Social Media Addiction”

While it might not (yet) be considered a clinical addition, many in society can’t go 5 minutes without checking their phone to see how many likes they have for their latest post, or how many comments people have left. And our teens are especially susceptible. After all, they’ve been all but raised with a device in their hands. How do we help this next generation deal with the debilitating side effects social media can have on us? In this 90-minute webinar, Pastor Rob will discuss the issue and provide practical ways we can help our teens navigate these formative years in a positive way. There will also be a live Q & A session at the end. (A link to the recorded webinar will be provided after the live event.)

Overliked by Rob Singleton is a tome for such a time as this. Even though I work on television, I also make a living through social media. Coincidently, right before I started reading the pre-release copy, I had checked my "Likes'" and numbers on social media! How was I doing? Were my numbers growing? Declining? Did a few drop off?  
 
It's so easy to get our self-esteem and self-worth tied to those likes and numbers.  
 
Through Pastor Rob's book, we learn how frivolous and fake it can all be and ultimately, how it can lead to a miserable and unfulfilled life if left unchecked. The tools, scriptures, and "change of heart" takeaways that Pastor Rob provides at the end of each chapter help considerably shift the focus from there…to in here. He gently, but with statistics and examples, gives us a guide us to live a more authentic life.  
 
In the book, Pastor Rob says, "Honesty is what sets us up for authentic relationships," and isn't that what we really all want? 
 
As a woman over 40 in Hollywood, the expectations have never been higher. Overliked sites that, in one 12-month period, YouTube logged 169 billion views just for beauty-related content. Beauty is good… perfection is lethal. And don't I know it? I am on high-definition TV with glaring set lights, standing next to 20- to 30-year old young women daily; it's a test to stay solid and secure in your own skin.  
 
I was posting perfectly lit and curated pictures of my "Beautiful" (heavily filtered) life; people followed and viewed but scrolled right along. However, when I let down the curtain, turned off the filter, and decided to share my real-life sorrows and struggles with cancer, the comments, words, notes, and numbers flooded. People want to see my honesty and weaknesses because they can relate.  
 
Overliked shows us that when we pretend to be perfect, the only person we are hurting is ourselves.  
 
Pastor Rob's easy and relatable storytelling draws the reader in. We find that our weaknesses become our strengths to help us touch, encourage, and heal others, not just impress them.  
 
Thank you for this very needed and essential book that helps us realize that being real is the only way to have a true connection with our Lord and our friends and family. 
 
In Overliked, through story references of David, we learn the Lord encourages us all to ignore appearance and stature. "For the Lord sees not as man sees: man looks on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart.” (1 Samuel 16:7)
 
This book is an important message for developing authenticity in our lives, which is far more critical than adding strangers, getting fake followers, and creating a heavily-filtered life experience. I promise you will really "LIKE" it.
