Elijah’s call on Mount Carmel still confronts us: in a world of divided hearts, choose Christ decisively before silence becomes surrender.
1. The War No One Sees There was no trumpet, no sword, no marching army that morning on Mount Carmel. The battle Israel faced wasn’t visible—it was spiritual. It was a war for allegiance. They still attended worship. They still claimed to be God’s people. But their hearts were split between two ...read more

God sees and values our hearts over outward appearances, choosing and loving the overlooked and ordinary to accomplish extraordinary purposes through His grace.
Maybe you walked in today carrying the sting of being overlooked.

Our God loves to surprise us. He ...read more

Freedom in it’s most basic form is the choice . Every morning Adam and Eve woke up they had the freedom to choose to obey or disobey God.
Freedom. What is freedom? Is freedom being able to come and go as you please, do or don’t do as you please, say anything you want? Yes If we go back to the beginning, God created Adam and Eve, gave them dominion over all of creation. They could go where they wanted, do what they wanted. They ...read more

The Scripture says, “For freedom Christ has set us free.” We say we want to be free. We want to be free. But therein lies a problem. The problem is that that’s not ...read more
