    People who live long lives together eventually begin to sound alike, to talk alike, and even to think alike. As we walk with God, we take on his thoughts, his principles, and his attitudes. We take on his heart, mind, and personality.

    Being Renewed in the Spirit of Your Mind Eph 4:17-24 NKJV As we walk as Christians, were in a battle for our minds. What does this mean? You will either be a person who controls your mind or you will be a person who is controlled by your mind. 1. Your mind is the doorway into who we ...read more

You know, this is actually a good sign when you realize you have done something wrong for God. This ...read more

    Malachi calls the priests of his day to whole-heartedly commit to representing the Lord to the people.

    Malachi castigates the priests of Israel for their lack of whole-hearted devotion. While there is truth here to benefit those who serve as leaders among God’s people today, I want us to consider a broader application. Let’s consider how what was said to these priests applies to ...read more
