Wake Before the Day

People often don't change with permission they change with pressure. How we respond to situations often reveals what we believe!

Will we let the fear of others silence us? Find ways to speak of Jesus and let the Holy Spirit do his work!

When we bump into people in need we might not always have food, money or clothes to give. But we will always have Jesus to give people! When the Spirit invites you to take a bold step, will you?

Just like gas powers a vehicle, the Holy Spirit empowers the Christian. Is he empowering your life or are you motivated by something else?

If we didn't have the book of Acts - the rest of the New Testament would be very confusing! Who are these people? How do they have the "power" to do what they are doing? Acts connects the ministry of Jesus through the Holy Spirit to the Church, this is a game changer for us. Let's open up and explore!

We are reading about the resurrection! What is beautiful about this is that this represents everyday for the Christian.

"Hosanna!" ... "Crucify him!" ... Which one is it?! While the heart of humanity is ever changing, inconsistent and at times unreliable, the heart of God is faithful, gracious and on fully display in Luke 23.

From creation, God knew what creating would require of him and at this point in Luke 22 Jesus is about to fulfill the plan he created thousands of years ago.

Giving out of one's abundance is fine and appreciated but giving when it is costly changes the heart!

Why did Jesus often teach in parables? Why does it seem his "authority" is frequently questioned? We'll respond to these questions and challenge you to live mindful of the Spirit's presence and power in your life.
