Breath Of God Or Copd?

Contributed by John Gaston on Jan 4, 2023

I believe the modern church is suffering from spiritual COPD; we’re not getting the Breath of life from God often enough to animate us, transform us, heal & renew us, and help us overcome. God's Breath is our source of life, gives us purpose, & power.

The 153 Fish Wake-Up Call Series

Contributed by Austin W. Duncan on Sep 26, 2025

As seasons shift, many of us need a reset with Jesus. John 21 shows the risen Christ meeting drifting disciples, filling empty nets, and inviting them to “come and have breakfast.” This isn’t box-checking; it’s returning to the One who seeks us, provides for us, and re-commissions us.

Can you feel it in the air? That subtle shift as summer fades into fall? Me either. But somehow every single store in all of existence seems to feel it as they’re already putting out Christmas decorations. I think by next year we’re going to see combo-fireworks stands selling candy canes and ...read more
