It’s very seldom that you see an entire nation raised up to do God’s will. In different times God will use different nations to accomplish His will, but it is rare that those nations are brought together and formed for the will of God to be accomplished. The only two that stand out is the […]
What Kind Of Experience Do You Have
My family and I practice Karate as a family. We started it last year to get exercise and do something as a family and even though it’s tiring and we leave sore sometimes, it’s still great. One of the things about Karate, or any martial arts, is that there are different types of belt rankings. […]
How To Not Backslide
As a Christian, how do you stop backsliding? How do you stop giving into the temptations, the urges, the wiles of the devil that pull you away from your faith? The Bible has your answer for that as well. First and foremost, you’re not alone. The Apostle Paul – that great man of faith – […]
Staying Christian When Christians Aren’t
There seems to be a growing increase of people leaving their faith behind and expressing their freedom from Christ, not their freedom in Christ. Of course it’s most prominently seen from Christian musicians (or “celebrities”), but they’re not alone.

Declaring the end from the beginning, And from ancient times things that are not yet done, Saying, ‘My counsel shall stand, And I will do all My pleasure,’ – Isaiah 46:10 God declares the end from the beginning. Centuries before things happen, He has already seen it. He is the Alpha and Omega. God has […]
How The Gospel Was Preached
I remember years ago getting an email from a ‘ministry company’ that sold, among other things, sermon series for all different kinds of ministries. One of their “selling points” was that having a pre-made sermon series freed up your time so you could spend it on “more important” things like building relationships. While the thought […]
The Trap of False Success
We have a thing in the church for getting results. I think we get it from the business world. Everyone wants a ROI – Return On Investment. Why wouldn’t they? You put a lot of resources, finances, and hard work into something, you want it to pay off. There’s a bamboo species that takes 100-120 […]
