Politicians use all sorts of tactics and language to get us to believe we are at war against the other side.

Are we at war? If so, who is our enemy...and what does it look like to take a stand like Ephesians 6 tells us to?

What we believe shapes how we live, but too often, Christians rely more on cultural opinions than on the Bible. Understanding God and living out our faith correctly demands a deep, personal engagement with Scripture. 

Our natural tendency is to lean either towards grace or towards truth, but when we do, we get it wrong. Scripture tells us that Jesus came full of both grace and truth. As His church, we are called to uphold both in everything we do!

The Good News of Salvation is a beautiful gift meant for everyone, but how can someone accept this gift if we don’t go and tell them about it? The message of Jesus was meant to be shared to those around us. We must be living out our faith and telling of God’s love for people. 

Throughout the Bible we see God places his favor on people to carry out his plans and further the Kingdom of God. God’s favor is still available today! This week we look at what God’s favor is and how we walk in it.

Without praise in our life we are missing something that is foundational in the Christian life. See how powerful praising God at all times can impact not only your life, but the church as a whole!

God wants to change the way you think because your life is always moving in the direction of your strongest thoughts. If you want to change your life, you need to change the way you think and replace it with God’s truth.

Asking God for help is just the beginning. Real change happens when we also take action and stop living in the same old patterns—life change is a partnership with God.

God wants to change your life! He wants to give you hope, heal your brokenness, and give you purpose. We first have to allow give Him permission to heal the deepest parts of us.

We all have something in our life we wish was not there—something we did, said, or continue to do. In other words we are ALL broken people, but God loves broken things and makes them beautiful!
