You need to mature to the point that when you show up Jesus shows up, too, not just that old 'you' that was around before.

You can't come to the Lord standing in who you are in and of yourself... but you can come to Him with confidence because of who Jesus is.

Do you feel important? Every life matters to God; He has a purpose for you.

Our joy isn't based on our circumstance, but on the fact God is working in us.

The love of God should be the driving force in how we live and how we look at the world.

Don't allow circumstances or a subjective opinion to change your focus... God gives us strength to stay the course!

How about this for a New Year's Resolution: to make 2015 a year full of passion, and "and then some" kind of year, where go beyond living good enough and let God take us to places we can't even imagine.

We're supposed to be the fragrance of Christ that diffuses out into the world because we've been around Him.

The final message in our Holy Spirit series focuses on how to receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit.

When is the best time for the gifts of the Holy Spirit? It's the moment when they are most needed.
