    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,040 views

    We tend to think that the whole goal is to “get saved.” But God wasn‟t interested in just saving us a future eternity. Jesus came to start a revolution in the here and now! Jesus came to turn the world right side up and inside out.

God finds every one of us inside centered, self-focused, self-absorbed, self-interested, and selfish. But that doesn‟t stop Him does it? He found ...read more

    Anger is a God-given emotion. And all anger is not sin. But we need to control our anger so as not to destroy us from being the people God want us to be.
