There are adjustments that must be made if you desire to live in the presence of God all day long.

God uses life’s twists and turns to draw us closer to Him, creating intimacy and trust along the way.

Parents’ advice may be seen as “old fashioned,” but advice rooted in the Word brings blessing and life.

If we will recognize our need for The Potter to take the pieces and make them new, He will save us from our own destruction.

Just as physical training yields tangible results, so cultivation of spiritual disciplines lead to profound growth and intimacy with God.

God can and will use unlikely individuals and circumstances to fulfill His grand plan for redemption of the lost.

Join us as we navigate life’s complexities, guided by the light of scripture, towards a future filled with promise and possibility.

Discover how slowing down in a fast-paced world can help deepen your prayer life and scriptural understanding.

Amidst the noise of dietary claims, learn why feeding on grace, God’s Word, and a deepened relationship with Him is the perfect diet plan.

We are not yet what we will be, but we are “growing toward it.”

In Jesus we have a fresh start.

Though we may not look the best on the outside, if we have a heart after Him, that’s all God needs to work mightily in our lives.

Stay hungry for God and His Word!

Let’s follow Jesus’ example and seek the lost, pour into them the truth and rejoice when they come home!

When we abide in Christ, we will bear much fruit.

God teaches us and works in and around us in times of ease and in times of difficulty.

A simple prayer for us…

Learning is good, but what will you do with it?

Pruning is painful, but it’s necessary and causes us to become the person God had in mind when He created us!

Put on the whole armor of God. We need it today.

God is the Good Shepherd, and we must willingly follow His leading.

Be the salt of the earth! Be His!

It takes nurturing with the bread of life and the living water and time spent with the Son for the person to finally bloom and grow and then be ready for harvest.

Anticipate “in your face” battles, not merely “let’s pretend” childish scrimmages. Be ready. From pretend pirates to skilled swordsmen, let’s suit up and execute His battle plans while holding fast to the victorious finish He has already secured.

You can believe a small seed of faith planted in God’s power produces the impossible if it is planted securely in God’s Word. 

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.

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

What God plans for our lives does not always match up with what we expect Him to do.

When you devote yourself to extended and focused time with God, you will see identifiable results.

If you’re feeling out of fellowship with God, you’re the one who created the distance, not Him.

Is your heart condition one of loving and serving others and a testament to a surrendered life?

Someone you know needs discipleship, and you may be that disciple maker.

Putting distance between yourself and God is a dangerous road to travel.

True disciples of Christ invest in the people God has placed in their lives.

God doesn’t promise a smooth ride, but to be with us in the turbulence.
