Battle Ready: Mighty Weapons - Part 3
Contributed on Mar 14, 2023
There is nothing more powerful than the words of God. The words of God can impart eternal life and take you to heaven. Knowing the word of God, taking up the sword of the Spirit is the only offensive weapon that we are given. We fight the devil knowing the word of God and authoritative prayer.

Battle Ready: Suit Up - Part 2
Contributed on Mar 14, 2023
Each piece of the armour of God that we are asked to put on is directed to one of the ways in which Satan attacks Christians. Satan accuses, strikes like a snake, tempts and deceives. There are six pieces of armour and these five protect us. If we are going to be battle ready, we better suit up!
Big Idea: Each piece of armour that we are asked to put on is directed to one of the ways in which Satan attacks Christians. Satan accuses, strikes like a snake, tempts and deceives.

Battle Ready: Know Your Enemy - Part One
Contributed on Mar 14, 2023
In order to be prepared for the attacks of the Devil and his demons, we must know more about him. Spiritual warfare has nothing to do with personality, gifting, calling or background. When you signed up to be a Christian, you automatically entered into warfare.
Me – Are we aware of the battle that goes on in the spiritual realm? In every world religion, there is an acknowledgement of a spiritual realm. In every minor religion, there is an acknowledgement of a spiritual realm. Even for those who don’t believe in God, many believe in the supernatural. If ...read more

Kairos – Hearing From God Through Our Desires And People
Contributed on Mar 14, 2023
Are you willing to identify the desires of your heart and bring them to a trusted mature spiritual mentor/guide to help you hear the voice of God?
Did you ever play that game where you asked the question, “What would you do if you won $1 million?" What would you do? I asked my dad that question when I was about 10 years old.

Return Good For Evil - Martin Luther King
Contributed on May 11, 2025
Jesus doesn’t just ask us to avoid revenge—he calls us to actively do good in return. Not because the other person deserves it, but because he deserves our obedience. And we’ve seen it lived out—not just in Bible times, but in our own history. Perhaps one of the clearest modern examples is Dr. ...read more

Mr. Rogers Cardigan
Contributed on Apr 13, 2025
We learn how God so loved the world. God sent His Son. He didn’t just say, “I love you.” He showed it. He gave something deeply personal. Something costly. Something that met our greatest need. And in a much smaller, but still powerful way, Fred Rogers—yes, Mister Rogers—modeled that kind of ...read more

A Contentious Spirit - Speaking Strife
Contributed on Feb 11, 2025
Here’s a fun fact: You don’t actually have to correct someone when they’re wrong. Shocking, I know! There’s no official appointment letter naming you Earth’s Guardian of Truth and Accuracy. (If there is, it probably got lost in the mail.) Sometimes, it’s okay to just let it go—yes, even if they ...read more
