A dream feels shelved. We know God is good, we sing that God is faithful, yet our watches rarely match His ...read more

    Revival revolves around this very notion and directly balances on the denial of ourselves and the cross we carry. Are we ready to take it on? Are we ready to carry our cross?

Jesus is put on the cross. What is He denying himself? The path is different because it is the path of ...read more
