Every Christian was once a fugitive from God. Our guilt was great and penalty severe. In Jesus we have a Mediator. Through grace, we are now reconciled to God not as slaves, but as sons and daughters.

You looking for the meaning of everything? You looking for all of God? You have it in the person of Jesus Christ. Beware of any teaching that undermines the sufficiency and deity of Jesus Christ.

Being “a different kind of man” is one of the highest and hardest callings you will ever receive. So be on alert, stand firm, be strong, act in love, and God let do extraordinary things for his glory and your good through your ordinary, faithful, different kind of life.

To live in joy, I need the right hope. That’s Christ. To serve with joy, I need the right attitude. That’s Christs. To be on mission with joy I need the right message. That’s Christ. To rest with joy then I need the right resources. That’s Christ.

God has established our core identity in Jesus Christ, placed us in his family, and given us every thing we need to live for Jesus.

Jesus is the message, Christians are His messengers. The church's task is to faithfully make known that Jesus is the King of the world and calling all into his kingdom. Today is the day to take Jesus as Savior and Lord, if you haven't. If you have, today is the day to tell someone about Him.

If you’re dependent on your circumstances for hope you will never have hope. But when the object of our hope is God, we always have hope. For the Christian, hope isn’t an optional way to live, it’s essential. Because hope is a person. Jesus Christ.

We aren't a perfect church, but can be a real one. We don't have all the answers, but can care. We may not be smart, but can be wise. A people who cry and understand those who do. All because we bring it to Jesus who hurts with us and has been hurt on our behalf.

When journeying through storms remember the presence and promise of God, the importance of practical encouragement, and the necessity of complete faith. We have Jesus who says I love you and I died for you. I will be with you and never leave you on your journey. Your world may break apart but I will hold you fast.

You know where you stand with God. And how you’ve lived your life is not the issue of whether you're right with Him or not. Instead, it’s whether or not you will accept or reject Jesus as your God and Savior. So ask Jesus, right now, to forgive you and give you peace with God.
