You unlock this door with the key of imagination (Childlike Faith). Beyond it is another dimension—a dimension of sound (Christmas Carols), a dimension of sight (Christmas Lights), a dimension of mind (Goodwill Toward Men). You're moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. You've just crossed over into - "The Christmas Zone".

Jesus said He came so that we could have and enjoy life abundantly! As we're rounding the bend toward Christmas time seems to speed up with all the things we need to get done. It's important to slow down right about now and remember what the fuss is all about - Enjoying Your Christmas.

A defining characteristic of love is kindness. God showed His kindness toward us 2000 years ago in Jesus Christ but He didn't stop there. In this spiritual battle of unseen forces that war against our minds it's knowing God's "kindness" that can powerfully expose Satan's "unkindness" and defeat his attacks - Embracing God's Kindness.

Are you trying to figure out what to get the person who already has everything? I have the perfect gift for you. It's something that won't cost you anything out of pocket...and yet it's a gift that they'll never forget - The Gift of Encouragement.

Jesus warned us that this world we live in is going to hate us because it hated Him. Yet, we're supposed to reach this world with the love of God...whom they hate. How does that work? - Loving A World That Hates You.

The Apostle Paul prophesied that the church would be in for some "perilous times". We'd probably refer to them as "rough sledding" or "crazy days". The children of Israel had many similar experiences throughout their history as they walked with God. On one occasion their camp was filled with poisonous snakes and the only way one could be healed was to block out all the chaos and steadily gaze at a bronze snake on a pole - Fixing Your Gaze.

Jesus told His disciples that He was going to make them "fishers of men". In these last days there's a SHIFT happening toward evangelism to prepare our nets for this latter rain harvest. - The Gospel: Learning How To Fish.

The Apostle Paul encouraged Timothy in the midst of the early church persecution that God had not given him a spirit of fear (2 Timothy 1:7). Now more than ever we need to be reminded of this truth especially as we're heading into November 2020. There have been many things predicted and prophesied regarding this month which may be causing fear and trepidation in your heart - Fear Not November.

As Christians we all find ourselves taking a "test". The Apostle Peter (1 Peter 1:6-9) tells us that the "testing" of our faith is more precious than gold while James (1:2-5) lets us know that God has wisdom for us as we take this test - The Open Book Test.

The scripture (1 Corinthians 2:9-16) tells us that as believers in Jesus we have access to a wisdom that the "natural" man cannot understand or appreciate. A natural man takes his cues from this natural world (see, hear, touch, taste, feel) but a spiritual man takes his cues from the Spirit of God. This is why we (as believers) are constantly at odds with the culture of this word. We're under two completely different authorities - Who's The Boss?
