 and this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith.” 1 John 5:4

"Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the...

The Gospel is the Good News that Christ has come to set us free from the law of sin and death.

"And the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was given to him (Jesus). He unrolled the scroll and found the place where it was written,

'The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because He has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who ...

As Christians, we are ambassadors of the Gospel; have we gone forth boldly to share the good news, or are we ashamed of it?

"For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Greek [Gentile]." Romans 1:16 NASB

"Then Jesus came to them and said, 'All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore, go and make disciples of a...

Although we can overcomplicate it, prayer is simply conversing with the one true God, Yahweh, our Father in Heaven, the Creator of the Universe. The Bible tells us to revere His position and remember to speak to Him in humility. 

However, God can also handle the real, raw, cries of our heart as we see in the pages of the Book of Job, "The Lord giveth, the Lord taketh away, blessed be the name of the Lord." Job 1:21 NASB  I...

"Yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes. Instead, you ought to say, 'If the Lord wills, we will live and do this or that.'” James 4:14-15 ESV

You may not know the direction the Lord has for you, but as you surrender your will to His, He will show you the steps to take and light the path ahead. 

You can trust Him to provide, and pr...

Do you ever feel like the Bible or your pastor is speaking in terms you don't understand? Today, we will grow in the knowledge of God's grace, mercy, covenant, sanctification, justification, salvation, repentance, and righteousness.

GRACE: Grace is an extension of God's mercy. It is the free, unmerited favor of God
MERCY: While it is in God's power to condemn us, He doesn't. Instead, He forgives us.

I hope you see grace in a new ...

You may feel like you want to give up when you are faced with unending, relentless trials. Or your heart may be filled with hopelessness and despair wondering how we will make it through one more day.

“For it is written: ‘Eye has not seen, nor ear has heard, nor has entered into the heart of man the things God has prepared for those who love Him.’” 1 Corinthians 2:9 NKJV

This scripture was my "life verse" in my twenties. Revisiting it almost twenty years later I think I was misinterpreting its meaning. Today on the podcast we will look at what ...

There are many seasons in our lives, but through it all, we can trust the God of the universe to equip us, strengthen us, and provide for us in every moment. 

 "For I know the plans that I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans for prosperity and not for disaster, to gi...

"For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, and love and sound mind." 2 Timothy 1:7 ESV

Fear is not from God.

Whether you are tormented by nightmares, fearful of scary movies or fear failure, fear steals our peace and leads to anxiety and terror. For all who love the Lord and put their trust in Him we do not have to fear or be afraid.

As it says in Josuha 1:6 "Have I not commanded you, 'Be stron...

You are not alone!
