I believe in renewal. The renewal of heart, mind, and soul. It’s something that impacts me deeply…and those around me. For you it can be the same thing.

Sometimes we are afraid to share the gospel of Jesus Christ with others. We don’t want to be judged by others, we don’t want to be told “no”, we are afraid it won’t have any positive impact.

In 1942 there was a book written by C. S. Lewis called, “The Screwtape Letters.” It’s a book that takes the form of letters from a Sr. demon named Screwtape, to his nephew and Jr. tempter, named Wormwood.

I want you to take part in a little exercise where you will take the next 3 minutes to close your eyes while you…

When I was young, I met with an older Christian once a week to learn more about what it meant to be a Christian. In other words, he discipled me.

2 Kings 4:1-7. The widow's olive oil.

John 21: 15-22 shares a beautiful full-circle moment Peter had with Jesus! I often find myself in the same shoes as Peter. Even though God has crafted my life and called me to a unique path of serving and following Christ, it can be so easy to lose focus on following Jesus.

This week I’ve had several talks with folks about a feel of darkness in the building. A lot of folks kind of down. It is that time of year, right? Dark, cold, gloomy…for some that is very hard. It sounds like “worry and anxiousness” is a big culprit for some. Anxiousness about the year, the country, the world in general. Life is kind of crazy.

May the Lord answer us in times of trouble (for they will come).
