We can experience this transformation through the inward spiritual disciplines of prayer, fasting, and study of Go...

Jesus calls us to love our neighbors as ourselves. What does that look like in your day to day life? Who is your neighbor? Are we willing to demonstrate a love that lays its life down for others?

Christ calls us to love others as we love ourselves, but what does that even mean? Before we can love others, we have to have a proper view of what love looks like and how we are to relate to others in light of our new life in Jesus! Do we see ourselves as God sees us or are we listening to the lies of the enemy's propaganda? Let's look at the inward work of love Jesus wants to do in us, so that i...

Jesus calls us to love God with everything-heart, soul, mind, and strength! It's all of us in totality. We cannot live like a double agent with a torn allegiance. We must be all in!

God is God. We are not. God doesn't exist for our benefit. We exist for His glory. Once we answer the call of Christ, we begin this amazing journey where we daily grow in our knowledge of who God is, and marvel at all He has done. Since He is God, we trust Him, acknowledging His authority by committing all we are and everything we do to Him.

Before we can be on God's mission we must first answer the call to follow Him. When we trust Jesus as our Savior, nothing is ever the same.

Ever try to walk through your house at night? If there are Legos on the floor this could be a very painful experience. A little light allows us to navigate our way. In Christ, we are children of light and it is time to escape the darkness and experience what God’s will is for our lives.

Becoming more like Jesus should be the heart’s cry of every believer. Yet, to do so requires us to put off the “old self” and put on the “new self” which is created to be like Jesus!
