Won't You Be My Neighbor?

Won't You Be My Neighbor?

In this present darkness we see in our world, it is far better to be a light, that others may be shown the way. And the wonderful, awe-inspiring thing is that it's not through our own strength that we be a light in a dark world, but through the strength of Christ. It can be so easy for us to look at Peter and think, "I would never deny Him three times like he did right in front of Jesus." But instead, what an incredible example and admirable trait to be able to say when Jesus asks, "do you love me?" to be able to say, "Lord, you know everything; you know that I love you."

The Climb to the Top

The Climb to the Top

God doesn't want our successes. He wants us. Your existence doesn't have to be justified by your accomplishments. Your significance, your value has already been proven and paid for by God, who gave His one and only son so that you may have eternal life. So that you can have the life that He paid for. Free of charge.

Exposing the Golden Calf

Exposing the Golden Calf

When we own our sin and realize the sheer weight of it, when we dig down beyond the surface to the root of our sins and grasp the weight of it all - it magnifies what Christ did for us that much more. Thank God that no matter our sins, we have a savior with which we can walk in joy.

Enough is Enough

Enough is Enough

What a marvelous joy it is to know the one and only God of Israel. The same God that heard and answered Elijah's prayers, the same God that brought the rain, is the same God that is with us today. What a marvelous joy the foundation before us upon which we can rebuild the altars in our heart, that He is with us every step of the way. When we find ourselves between two opinions, He's with us. If we stumble and find ourselves turned toward the way of the world, He's with us. When we turn toward Him and serve Him, He's with us.

The Church of the Open Door

However much you may feel trapped by your circumstances, and despite our weakness, what matters is the sovereignty of Jesus, and that we can rest in the strength of our savior. What matters is the one who can ‘open doors.’ Particularly, that door that really matters. The door which leads into a place of peace, security and salvation in God’s presence.
