The truth of the gospel is powerful, unchanging, and must be preserved. Galatians 2 encourages us to always maintain the truth of the gospel in order to fully live in the freedom Christ has purchased for us. Just as Paul has done for us, so we must do the same for others.
Read MoreWe are uniquely created and called. Like Paul, we can all grow in intimacy and revelation as we journey with Jesus.
Read MoreGod has a spacious place for us and we enter in by faith, receiving all that Jesus has won for us. Because of Jesus we are co-heirs with Christ and can live finding our joy and hope in Him, despite our circumstance. We can dream big in Him, not living in fear of the unknown or wishing for what’s familiar but trusting in our big God and His good plans for our lives, moving into the more He has for us.
Read MoreUnderstanding the love our our Heavenly Father will strengthen, refresh, envision, and encourage us through the tough times. Jesus went to the cross, per our Heavenly Father’s will, because He understood “This is my son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased” (Matt 3:17). Let’s follow Jesus’ example and draw upon our Father’s love for everything that we do.
Read MoreJesus brought a kingdom that was upside down, and inside out. The first will be last and the greatest will be the servant of all. When we are faithful in the small things, God leads us into and entrusts us with more.
Read MoreThe world defines inheritance as material goods. Our future inheritance is so much more than that. It is to stand before our God and receive “the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day” (2 Tim 4:7).

Read MoreThank you Ken for reminding us that God desires to speak to us. God wants us to know that we are dearly loved and treasured by Him. The way for us to know that is through recognizing His voice, from all the other voices, and listen to His voice.
Read MoreGod called Abraham his friend. In Genesis 18 we can see how the posture of Abraham’s heart and his response to different seasons in his walk of faith, prepared him for an encounter with the Lord.
Read MoreThank you Jody for breaking down the stigma of Evangelism. It is simply about us bringing unification to our Heavenly Father and his children! Let’s continue to invite everyone and anyone into this eternal unification because we have been given permission, and empowered, by God Himself.
Read MoreIn our series on the life of Abraham, God came and revealed Himself to Abraham in a new way. As the All-sufficient One! And God is all-sufficient for us too. He is the same God yesterday, today, and forever; like Abraham, we can put ALL our trust in Him. HE is our great reward, so let’s fix our eyes on Jesus and trust completely that our God is in control and believe Him for the impossible in our lives.
Read MoreGenesis 16 teaches us to be constantly inquiring of God! God doesn’t want us to make just a rational decision, but to come to him for leading and guidance in making our decisions. Being a friend of God is not about doing the right thing, but it is all about having intimacy with Him.
