    based on 5 ratings
     | 7,014 views

    Cultivate purity in our thoughts. You need conviction and commitment, confession and cleansing, you need to forsake and flee, and to renew our mind and revive your spirit.

    We need to protect our mind, because we are what we think. • It will be garbage in, garbage out. The more trash we put in, the more trash we would see in words and deeds. You reap what you plant. • We need to set up this “greenhouse” of the mind - to make sure that no virus or pests enter. 2 ...read more

    Inside Out Christianity

     | 1,711 views

    So often, we Christians--like everyone else get caught up on the outward appearance of our physical bodies, our homes, our cars and our families. Even more dangerous than focusing on the "appearance" of these things, we quite often focus on the appearance of our Christianity.

    Have you ever met someone for the first time, and you were immediately struck by how nice-looking that person was? But after spending some time with them, all of a sudden, they didn’t look that good anymore? Not that their makeup got smeared or their toupee blew off; but once you talked to them and ...read more
