What Refining Looks Like

Contributed by Glynda Lomax on Aug 2, 2018

Many people are entering into wilderness seasons in their lives. Most have no idea what is happening as the Spirit of God gently leads them into the wilderness, just as He led the Israelites through Moses thousands of years ago.

Because we know so many are entering times of refining, we need to really understand what refining is, what it does and what it may look like. That way we will recognize it when it shows up, and work WITH God and not against Him in the process. If you work against Him, you will only be in the ...read more

A Clean Heart In A Dirty World

Contributed by Wayne Lawson on Aug 11, 2020

I love the 51st Psalm. It’s a very personal prayer of Confession - Self-Examination - A Cry For Forgiveness. I can really identify with the author of this Psalm. Not with what he did, but with his own sense and need for forgiveness.
