Now, it’s our turn to put our faith to the test. Do I believe in the works of Jesus? Do I believe that His sacrifice on the cross was enough and that through His resurrection we have victory over the enemy?

It’s silent now, but soon there will be a rumbling that will shake our hearts.

As we prepare ourselves for Holy Week, let’s reflect on Jesus' last moments leading up to the crucifixion.

How are you honestly preparing for this season?

A reflection on Peace – an extension to our Living the Story: Advent & Christmas journal.

Is hope in God's promise something we just think about maybe happening, or is it something we trust to be true?

Peace. How is it that something so readily available can also be so very illusive?

This week we focus on joy. Both the joy the Lord gives us, and how to share that joy with others.

This week we focus on love. Both the love of God for us, and how to show that love to others!

Join us as we begin our year of discipleship through the church calendar!

In case you ever wonder why an Evangelical observes the liturgical calendar seasons, here is your answer!

Jesus really meant what he said and this makes us incredibly uncomfortable.

Zacchaeus was a notorious sinner, a scoundrel. Yet Jesus said to him, “I must stay at your house.” In that culture, this act of fellowship indicated acceptance. What Jesus did was scandalous.

The bible and history show us over and over that financial and professional prosperity erodes and weakens our spiritual vitality. God usually has to take away our stuff for repentance and revival to happen. He has to take away our idols.

I’ve come to realize that we cannot separate our bodies from our spirit. If we were meant to separate these two things, then why did God create these unique “machines” with emotions? With hormones? With desires? With an amazing ability to experience beauty and pleasure? Our bodies are not just cages for our souls.

The Western church seems to have forgotten this part. In our quest for bigger, better, more spectacular experiences, we have elevated the parts of the body that feed us and have forgotten we also have a role.

It all begins with an idea.
