    When we articulate our past, we are getting ready for a repeat performance. The choice is ours ~ rehearse the past failures OR the past victories. David chose not to continue living in the past. Will you also take that step?

His life had been in the fast lane, nothing had come out of it. He had been in numerous relations and being a lorry driver he had ...read more

    In Hebrews 12:1–3. we see various aspects of the race, as they are compared to the faithful life in Christ. Christ calls us to 1) Race Freely (Hebrews 12:1), 2) Race Focused (Hebrews 12:2), and 3) Race to the Finish (Hebrews 12:3)

    In the ancient Isthmian games of Greece, a pedestal stood at the finish line, and on it hung a wreath—the winner’s prize. No one runs a race without some expectation of reward. The reward may be nothing more than a ribbon or a trophy or a wreath of leaves. It may be a prize worth a ...read more

    Take Up Your Cross Having recently seen the movie the Passion of the Christ several times, I’ve been reflecting on the meaning of the Passion. Of course, I know that the purpose of Christ’s death was to bring forgiveness of sin. But at the same time, I wondered what the purpose could be in ...read more
