    "Maker of Heaven and Earth". Our personal life story makes no sense outside of the ultimate story. Why did God create?

Look Closely At Hebrews 4:12-13 “For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. And there is no creature ...read more

You can change the names around to make sure you don’t step make anyone think you’re referring to them.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,605 views

    Our greatest and our only hope to make a long-lasting difference for God is to learn how to pray. Prayer is not optional; it is essential.

    How many times have you said that you were going to become a better prayer warrior? Have you ever heard someone else say it? Even though many Christians have good intentions we often fail. It seems that one of the most apparent areas of poor performance in the Christian life is the area of ...read more

    What happens when you stay in something long enough to make it a lifestyle while claiming a love for and complete devotion to Christ?

    There is something that I struggle to reconcile as a church leader sometimes. It is the incongruency of the peoples’ actions with their claim to love and believe in Jesus Christ. Let me start by admitting that I have done some pretty stupid and sinful things in my life. I have made a complete fool ...read more
