We like to see others get what is coming to them. To often we forget we to are sinners. Just because we are doing well does not mean we are right with God.

There will be a day when all of us will stand in judgment before our Creator. That is not a day you want to be standing in sin. There will be another day the Day of the Lord when all nations and people will stand in final judgement, and depending on the decisions we have made as individuals and as nations it will be good or bad and ugly.

Our salvation begins with confession, and grows with repentance. This process will be repeated daily in the life of every Christian. Each time we repeat we become more like Christ and more in line with God's will.

There is no depth you can go to that God cannot reach. There is no sin so great that God's grace cannot forgive. You cannot run faster than God's love. While yet we are born children of wrath, it is God's desire that we are transformed into children of the One True King.

The gospel is a powerful thing. When presented uncompromisingly with clarity and compassion it has the power to change lives for the better. When we compromise the truth or use it to condemn it can permanently push people away from God's grace.

The world is full of temptations, some in places where we would east expect. God promises to always provide a way out.

When we are wronged our first instinct is to seek retribution. What God calls us to do is to forgive. Listen to our latest podcast "Forgive Like This"

God encourages us to ask for what we need, to often we ask for what we want and feel discouraged when God says no. Prayer helps us understand that what God provides is enough.

To be in God's will is to be with hope, no matter our circumstances. Prayer helps us connect to that hope, by changing our hearts to be in the will of God.

When we pray how we see and honor God has a profound effect on how we pray. The first step in effective prayer is to understand and to honor God in all ways.
