Don’t Be Too Easily Satisfied
Where our comfort zone ends, the will of God begins We are creatures of comfort and habit. And since we love our suffering, testing and trial free zones, we are easily lulled into being content with the status quo of our religious traditions and habits. If we were to...
Rest is Part of Your Discipleship
Rest is part of your discipleship. One of the ways we actively imitate both the life and teachings of Jesus is by resting. Knowing the Father, becoming like the Son and participating in the work of the Spirit requires that you rest. What is rest to you? Take a minute...
A Powerful New Perspective on Unity
Disunity is growing. Unity seems elusive today, even within the Body of Christ. Over and over Paul reminds us about the importance of unity in his letters and yet there is still a growing disunity among Christians. That could be due to a misunderstanding about what...
Beware of Self-Satisfaction With Your Christian Life
“Enough” of a Christian doesn’t mean “enough” with God. The self-satisfaction we can feel as Christians is killing us because we can really believe that whatever we do for God is good enough. We can feel confident that since we’re probably enough of a Christian for...
Make Sure Jesus is Defining Your Identity Right Now: Do you identify with the world or Christ?

Our Flaws Aren’t Supposed to Stop Us
When I think about Jesus’ disciples, it always makes me smile. They are such a perfect picture of how everyone can be used by God and how everyone is called by God to do the mission He has set out for us to do. They were all outcasts, really. No one had prestige or...
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...
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...
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...
