God calls us to live thankful lives.

Today might be a good day to stop and examine our lives. We may claim to know Christ, but is there fruit in our lives, evidence of His redemptive work?

Don’t give God your leftovers. Allow him to be The Feast you indulge in and come away eternally filled by His Spirit to the fullest!

God created the church as a place to worship and serve Him. It’s a place to learn, become a family, and minister to those in need.

None of us deserve what God has done for us. We ALL deserve His wrath.

Today, let us be looking for ways to put others first. How can we serve one another? How can I be more like Jesus?

And this is God’s will…

Because we’ve been forgiven, we can forgive.

What legacy will you leave?

The Lord knows we are better together. United, we will stand; divided, we will fall.

May we obey when God calls.

Have we settled for something less than what Jesus intended for His church?

Learn the lessons that separation can bring, but run when you spot home. Your Father always leaves the light on.

God desires our obedience. He wants a heart that loves him so much, it is willing to trust and obey Him…even when it’s hard.

We don’t always understand God’s plan. We don’t like to see our friends or family struggle or suffer, but it’s important to remember, God’s got this. He is in control.

Are you seeing the whole picture? Get the full context by searching the scriptures!

You cannot do this on your own. You need Jesus. Trust in Him to provide what you need.

We’ve seen His goodness time and time again. We’ve witnessed what He can do and we know what He’s promised to do, but… we turn the knob on the side of that box, wondering if He’s really going to show up.

We must resist our tendency to quench our spiritual thirst with the wrong things.

The truth is, the Word of God is offensive. It cuts deep to the core. The very innermost parts of our souls. Exposing our sin, shining light on the darkness we want to stay hidden.

The Psalms teach us how to pour our hearts out to God.

God commands us to delight in Him!

If Jesus devoted time to be with others, it isn’t optional for His followers.

How often are we deceived into believing we deserve something when it’s actually God who does because he is our above-and-beyond Provider.

Attempting to hide from God is as old as the garden, so try resolutions and honest communication instead of a slow fade.

Grace means using forgiveness and humility to keep you away from being self-centered and judgmental.

Satan attacks our attempts to spread gospel seeds, but with consistent care and intentionality, the harvest will give birth to new believers.

Your story, until today, may look bleak, impossible, and hopeless, but I’m telling you from experience that you can change the trajectory of your live.

Are you fighting a battle? Maybe you feel like the darkness is closing in and you need more light to continue. Jesus Christ said He is the light of the world. Reach out to Him to in faith that He would give you what you need to continue!

Where or to whom are you looking for stress relief? If not heavenward, it won’t work for long.

Jesus truly saw people, related to them, and cared about their eternity, so are you willing to be used in the same way?

Humility is a choice and a gift God gave us so we can sacrificially serve others.

We have entered into some of the most difficult times culturally, yet we have more opportunities to serve and love others if only we would cast out fear.

Are we actually following Jesus’ example of growing our faith through community by being transparent with a lighted, handheld screen?

Jesus is making a home in our hearts through the Holy Spirit.

Imagine the amazing things that would happen in your life if you closed the gap between yourself and God.

Regular maintenance means regular appointments with God, and there are no short cuts.

With so many blessings freely given to those who surrender their lives to Jesus, you would think none of them would remain unclaimed.

If you’re chasing after the American dream without considering God’s will, you will be sadly disappointed in the results.

If you want to be a light for Christ while you’re in college, don’t assume you can ignore the Christian ones.

Summertime church camps, student conferences, and mission trips . . . it’s been a great break for our students, but going back to school is an opportunity for Satan to strike.

We make thousands of choices every day, but there’s really only one that is life-sustaining.

Tension among Christians has always existed, but that doesn’t mean we can manufacture those that do not exist.

It’s amazing how God subtly leads us down paths that don’t make sense at first then to something that was there all the time.

In the same way that a clean air filter is important for your car, so is your personal, spiritual filter.

What an awesome thing to stand back and say “wow”! God, your plan was so detailed! All of it came together so beautifully!

Worship is easy with the praise band, microphones, church atmosphere, etc., but what about your own personal worship?

It’s that simple. Share the love of Christ with all those we come in contact with. Share the gospel, the truth that Jesus loves them, yes even when they were sinners, and He gave His life for them. Tell them of how He saved you. Tell them of the hope that you have.

Walking in the Spirit can be a real challenge, but when you focus in on the battle with determination, anything is possible with God.

A godly life requires four must-dos that there is absolutely no substitute for.
