Does it even matter that Jesus is the Messiah? Does it matter to you? #AsAMatterOfFact

When is an ending never-ending? When it comes to the work of the gospel. #ToBeContinued

By examining the heart of, arguably, the greatest missionary to have every lived, we discover heart necessary to being a missional people. #HeartDrive

Scripture challenges us to envision a salvation so much larger than how you have chosen to define it. We don’t dictate to God how his salvation is to be defined. #UnityIsn'tUniformity

Whether it is a full engagement of the political processes that govern a nation, or a fearful withdrawal from the established structures of society, either is a departure from the biblical and strategic intent for the people of God. #SubversiveIntent

 #GoesALongWay

Comfortable, manageable, predictable; these are words that most frighten me in the life of faith, because it’s only in the discomforting, unfamiliar situations, and unpredictable ends, that we grow in life and faith. #OnTheWayToNotKnowing

Don’t get comfortable! Being a commissioned people means we have been sent out from a place from which we were never intended to stay. #GoInDiscomfort

It defines you, it determines everything you do, it is how everyone sees you and perceives you to be, it is the one thing that must be resolved in your life. #ResolvingIt

Only by wanting more than you want right now is it possible to be a follower of Christ. #WantMore

  Philippians 4:13

Only the misinformed, or deliberately disobedient, would ever make the statement, “The only thing that really matters is being part of the church universal.” In the New Testament, and in real time, however,  ecclesia , church is played out in local communities of believers. #Participate

While life seeks to imprison all humanity to a cell of negative emotions, Paul reveals a secret escape. #SecretEscape

Peace is what we want but anxiety is what we experience. How do we flip the script? #PeaceTalks

Are you depressed? Discouraged? Filled with doubt? You’re in good company. The roll call of church history is filled with those who have battled through such seasons of life. #DisciplinedDeliverance

While not surprised by those despondent over a world gone bad, what’s unexpected is those depressed by doing all things good. #UnexpectedDepression

A corrupted self-identity can steal away the wellness God desires for you. #IdentityDefined
