    Our nation is in need of Soldiers. We are at war. But the battle is not what it appears. It is a spiritual battle and we need to prepare ourselves now. Put on the Armor and Pray.

    EPH 6:10-18 Boot Camp As a kid, my brother and I liked to play ‘army man’. My grandfather had an old steel army helmet that we would wear when we played army man.

    If you could use a single word to define Jesus what would it be? Love comes to mind, maybe forgiving, merciful, kind? How about the Word “grace”?

    God speaks in dreams, visions, impressions and thoughts, or so writes the writer of Proverbs. But how can you tell if the voice is really Gods. Use these seven steps to test the Spirits. (Portions from a published sermon by Rick Warren)

But what does it all really mean? Are we supposed to now just go back to business as usual? Are we supposed to stay on ...read more
