We need to take care of what we are building. Always watching what we are building. We can waste it or use it for God’s glory. We only have a few days to do His work. When we think back on our past it might be many years but it feels like only yesterday. Our days are very short. Once the day is gone so is the opportunity to build. Church is not the…

Sometimes, we think about what we do that causes other things to change. We can all go through the motions but if they are not about God then it’s all in vain. Some walk around and beat their chest to brag about the things they’ve done. Pride goes before a fall. What good does it do to sow to the flesh? Those who sow to the flesh will reap corrupti…

Each gender carries a portion of the opposite gender. As each gender learns to flow in his/her expression, healthy identity forms and with the freedom to flex in the opposite energy as r…

Isaiah 46:9 The Christian serves a living God. Jude 25 He watches over us all the time. God hears our cries. He pulled us out of the pit of Hell.

Religion, in its impure form, is deadly. Instead of saving people, it puts people in bondage and, with the Christian version, it does so in Jesus’ name. But there is vast healing and hope for freedom. It is literally a movement authored by the Author and Finisher of Faith Himself! Join Lin Bennett and myself for this joyful conversation - guarantee…

Verse 1 The crossing requires that the earthly tabernacle be resolved. One will die once God calls you out of here. You will either die naturally or at the end of time when God calls it to an end. Down here we live in a fleshly house. This house requires a lot of maintenance to keep it up. Yet at some point, the house will fall, and die. If you’re …

You’ve got gods in your life. Call on them. Will they respond? We all chase after all kinds of worldly things. Those things have no power at all yet we just love to have them in our lives.

Christian people at times don’t like to be uncomfortable by God so they don’t repent. We would be a lot better off if we would just ask God to clean our hearts and remove the sin that we’ve allowed to enter. We should all want to go back to when we first got saved and cleaned. There are no big or little sins. We have Christians who will stand up an…

Once saved, you’re given the armor to protect us from the evil one. Just as a child, we must help them to get dressed. God does the same for us at times, He helps us get ready for the battle.

We at times get into a rut of just going through the motions. We’d rather fill our lives full of the worldly things that it offers than be with God.

Your church attendance will not amount to anything at the …

The world is hungry for truth. People might know the holidays of Christmas and Easter but not see the background and reasoning behind them.

We have but only one high priest. We do not have a man that we go to to get to our high priest. Some religions require a man to be a mediator to go to God for their congregant’s sins. This action is sinful because a man can’t mediate or clean another of their sins. Jesus Christ is everyone’s mediator and can’t be ruled by the rules of this world. W…

Church attendance will never account for righteousness. We look at all of the sins and think we don’t do them which would then make us more righteous. None of us have anything apart from God. If you’ve been saved, God didn’t save your flesh. Your flesh is and will always be sinful. God knows your heart and your thoughts. Maybe you looked at someone…

We each have a part to do when it comes to our spiritual lives. Our pastor can pray for us every second of the day but it’s up to each individual person to change.
