The Deference Weapon: Ring Around the Rosie and the Second Mile

By Drake Hunter | Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice Ring around the rosie, a pocket full of posies, ashes, ashes, we all fall down. Most of us learned Ring Around the Rosie before we learned how to tie our shoes. We held hands, spun in circles, laughed, and then intentionally fell to the ground together. Nobody was trying to win. Nobody was competing for attention. Nobody was demanding their rights. For a few brief moments, everyone moved together…Then we grew up! Today, it seems we've forgotten how. Everywhere we look, people are fighting for position. We fight for attention, recognition, influence, and control. We fight to be heard, to be right, and to make sure no one gets ahead of us. The cultural message is clear: stand your ground, protect your rights, and never let a...

The generosity weapon: This little light goes to war

By Drake Hunter | Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice “This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it shine…” The many weapons in the Kingdom of God seem weak; some include humility, meekness, joy, and now, generosity. None of these sounds like weapons capable of winning a war, yet Jesus teaches that life's battles are won differently than the world imagines. While the world fights with power, pushing, positioning, and preferences, Christ fights with goodwill and character. His weapons transform hearts, heal relationships, and illuminate the goodness within all reality. Generosity is one of the greatest weapons in Jesus’ arsenal, not the generosity the world offers, which is merely giving something away, but Jesus style, where everyone benefits.  Generosity, when properl...

The Trust Weapon: Up the Hill Without the Spill

By Drake Hunter | Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding.”~ Proverbs 3:5 ~ Jack and Jill went up the hill to fetch a pail of water. Jack fell down and broke his crown, and Jill came tumbling after. We’ve all heard this simple nursery rhyme—it’s such a charming and memorable little song. It’s one of my favorites, especially because I recently shared it with my grandchild. That special moment truly highlighted for me how this lovely rhyme reflects a kind of leadership—a wonderful kind at that—The Art of War, Jesus Style. In many ways, we’re all on a journey up a hill—whether it’s building a business, serving in a ministry, caring for family, leading a team, or guiding our own lives. This journ...

Heaven’s Battle Plan: You’re Not Alone

By Drake Hunter | Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice “It is not good for man to be alone.”~ Genesis 2:18 ~ In Colorado and especially across the Rocky Mountains, we deeply respect a trait we find truly admirable: rugged independence. It embodies the ability to stand firm on your own, work diligently, fulfill your responsibilities, and take control of your life. It’s important to recognize that this isn’t a weakness but a genuine strength. So, therefore, as I get into this devotion, I want to clarify that God is for independence—He’s the one who bestowed upon us the capacity to stand tall and be self-reliant when understood correctly. However, like many virtues, what begins as strength can slowly transform into something else—something heavier and isolating. I recall a meaningful mom...

Good News or Fake News: Hope — Waiting for the Real News

By Drake Hunter | Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice When you look for hope, peace, joy, and love in your relationships and reality during this Advent Season, what source is shaping who you are—the Good News or the fake news? Across Colorado, the nation, and around the world, people start their day scrolling through headlines, alerts, predictions, and debates. The news cycle never stops. It rarely offers hope. But here’s a question at the start of this Advent season: How much of what influences you every day is genuine good news, and how much is cleverly disguised fake news? And here’s a more personal take: When you seek direction, identity, and meaning… are you following the real Jesus—or a version filtered and edited by the loudest voices of our time? Advent isn’t just...
