3. The Breastplate Of Righteousness Series

Contributed by Stephen Aram on Dec 1, 2019

Our modern culture is desperate to feel good about itself. But God has provided a true way to feel good about ourselves, to feel good because we are doing good, and to find God's forgiveness when our own efforts fall short.

We are continuing to look at what the Apostle Paul called the whole armor of God. In his letter to the Ephesian Church, chapter 6, he talked about our world as a battle field. And he wasn't picturing the kind of battle like that occurred when we began our attack on Iraq, where our forces ...read more

3 Putting On The New Self Series

Contributed by Stephen Aram on Oct 25, 2019

All our lives people tell us who we are, whether out loud by their words, or silently by the way they treat us. A distorted self image leads to a distorted life. Jesus says we are children of God. Put that image on every morning as you start your day.

Every morning we face the world with this momentous decision. “What am I going to wear today?” If you are doing something important in your job you might put on your very best, just that combination that says I am confident, but not too pushy. Something creative, but not weird. Something ...read more

No Filter (Only God's Beauty)

Contributed by Je Layugan on Jan 6, 2021

Organize our self around the fact that we are created in the Image of God and we inherit His beauty. Begin to seek the beauty of God and you will never have to live a filtered life.
