Are You Any Earthly Good?
There’s an old Johnny Cash song that goes like this, “If you're holding heaven, then spread it around. There's hungry hands reaching up here from the ground. Move over and share the high ground where you stood. So heavenly minded, you're no earthly good.” The song...
Stop Waiting For Things To Get Back To “Normal”
I am so glad our 1st century sisters and brothers in Christ didn’t say to themselves, “Let’s wait until the persecution dies down before we get to doing what Jesus left us here to do.” If they did, the life and message of Christ would have died with them! But they...
What Screams Louder: Christ’s Lordship or Your Social Media?
Do your opinions about current events scream louder than Christ’s Lordship over your opinions? If we truly recognize that Jesus is Lord, then it means He has the right to rule and reign over every area of our lives, including what we post on social media. While the...
Is There Proof of Life in Your Life?
Is their proof of Christ in your life? In other words, if you said yes to Jesus ruling and reigning in your life, does your everyday life reflect that? When Jesus first began his ministry, he always seemed to have to combat a religious group called the Pharisees. This...
Are we Part of the Solution or the Problem?
We have work to do as a church, ladies. Work that starts with the way we love one another. And I’m not talking tweeting at each other or posting stuff. I’m talking about the way we treat each other. The WORLD is supposed to know we’re Christ’s disciples by the way we...
Experiencing Kingdom Abundance
God’s mission never lacks His resource. In a season when so many people are living amid much uncertainty, this timeless truth is an anchor for the disciple of Christ. In fact, God’s abundance is MOST OFTEN evident in times of uncertainty. One just needs to read...
I Hope You’re Not Just Maintaining Your Christian Walk
Maintaining a relationship with Christ is not the same as participating in the work of Christ. While time in the Word, prayer and the other Christian disciplines are vital in our walk with Christ, those things cannot become substitutes for going for Christ. Becoming...
Don’t Shrink Back!
"If you take an honest survey of the New Testament, you see that the Kingdom of God did not advance under convenient, comfortable, controlled environments or accommodating circumstances. Quite the opposite! It grew and thrived under immense persecution, great...
Greatness Comes through Surrender
“God doesn’t do great things through great people; He does great things through surrendered people.” That mic-drop statement was said by Susanna Kozlow at a Well Pop Up. Wow! What a paradigm shift! So, our abilities, talents, resources, and status don’t make us great. Those are only transactional and temporal.
Are You Stuck or F.A.T.?
If you’ve been around The Well for any length of time, you’ve probably heard the acronym “F.A.T.” used, which stands for faithful, available and teachable. These are at the heart of true discipleship and when we lack of one of these qualities we end up stuck in our faith, regardless of any desire to move forward. So, what does a F.A.T woman look like?
The Culture is Discipling
The culture is disciplining more and more Christians. ITS making disciples of us as we continue to reflect the values and practices of the world because the majority of Christians are making excuses, not disciples. If we’re in Christ, then God expects us to follow Jesus’ example and be disciples who can contribute to making disciples.
Obedience Trumps Feelings Every Time
There is no escaping that the call to love is always a call to people – even.the.difficult.ones, but how do you love people who annoy you? How do we obey Jesus’ command to love others as we love ourselves if we really don’t like them to begin with? We PRAY!
