Good Friday
Tonight I’m going to my church’s first ever Good Friday service. My pastor believes Christians focus too much on the resurrection and rush over the part about Christ sacrificing for our sins in a most brutal and painful way. His goal is to take us through the events of Good Friday and make us so…
Experiencing the Ressurection
By Henry & Melvin Blackaby I remember years ago through Henry Blackaby’s workbook Experiencing God. It was moving and life changing, and one of the things I took away from the experience is that I needed to join God in where he was already at work instead of going out on my own. I’m excited…

Releasing Your New Purity III Last time I left off with an analogy of being licked by a gentle lamb or roaring lion. Which lick would mean more? The Lion, of course seeing that it could kill you in one bite. “Our Lord will never be appreciated as a Lamb unless He’s first encountered as…
Pain is Good!
Today at church our pastor spoke about how pain isn’t always a bad thing. It’s a God given response to something very wrong in our bodies. Without pain a person might not go to the doctor. They might not even know they’re sick until it’s too late! It’s the same with God. Sometimes God can…

And I can’t say it any better than Dwight Edwards… “The Christian life isn’t hard; it’s flat impossible. It becomes possible only when God injects…
Prayer and Supplication
So many people around me seem to need prayer I thought I’d take the time to jot them down. You’re welcome to pray for these people and add your own request to the comment section: My dad is recovering from a heart procedure where they had to go in and open up his stents. My…

Exploring God’s Glory God’s glory. His holy presence. It’s something so many people desire. But are they really ready for it? In the Old Testament many prophets experienced God’s glory, and it wasn’t how many Christians today imagine it to be. Most often when God entered a place, the ground shook, the Temple filled with…
Making Room for God
That’s supposed to be the theme for lent, and while I’ve been really good at the giving up part of lent, I haven’t been able to add in the more time with God like I’d like. Part of it is a discipline issue. I’d have to get up much early than I already do to…
