Acceptance
Christianity can be separated from all other religious orientations by asking one question. On what basis are you accepted?
Do All to the Glory of God
The essential prerequisite to knowing the will of God is the willingness to do it.
Acceptance and Affirmation for Our Children
As Christian leaders and parents we may not always be able to control those under our authority, but we can always love them.
Overcoming Depression
One of the major symptoms of depression is withdrawal from meaningful relationships. You may feel like you want to be alone, but you need to stay connected to God and in contact with the right people. We absolutely need God, and we necessarily need each other.
I Am Complete
We have the opportunity to serve and build others up, giving of ourselves for their benefit. But that only flows from a fullness found first in Christ. We are truly complete in Christ!
Why is fear so dangerous?
Fear need not control us, because we know that the most powerful being in the universe, who loves us with an everlasting love, knows what is happening and is bringing about his divine plans in His time.
Envy is more dangerous than I thought
If we start to look at peoples hearts the way God does, we will start to see as God sees. And we will guard against envy creeping into our hearts.
I Am Your Delight
Did you know that you make God smile? God delighted in you long before you could “do” any great works for him.
Love God Because...
Remembering how God rescued us can sure up the foundation of our love for Him.
You Are Pure
Dear Saints, you have been washed, sanctified, and justified in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God. We are a pure bride for God!
Surviving A Crisis with Your Spouse
Any crisis in the home can make or break you. You can choose to grow through the crisis and become a better person than you were before. Romans 5:3, 4, encourages, "We also exult in our tribulations, knowing that tribulation brings about perseverance; and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope."
A Restored Relationship with God
By the grace of God we can stand before His throne with our relationship restored.
Going After the Barren Places
If you want a fruitful harvest, then you had better remove the rocks in the soil. This metaphor parallels with the lies we may be believing in our own lives. What lies need to be replaced with truth in your life?
God's Protection Takes Action
Our role is not passive in receiving God’s protection. God requires us to be active participants in the spiritual defense that He has provided for us.
Balance of Power
The Lord sets forth the roles and responsibilities in Deuteronomy. The concept of having checks and balances for positions of power is biblical and imperative for healthy leadership.
A Proper Defense
What should we do when someone wrongly judges us and attacks our character? Should we be defensive, or follow Christ’s example?
