One of the more beautiful gifts we’ve been given by the Lord Jesus is the Lord’s Prayer. How wonderful is it when we stand together and speak together the words of Jesus from the Gospels “Our Father, who art in heaven hallowed be Thy name...” That God-given prayer not only brings unity among us as in unison we speak our “Family Prayer,” but it also speaks into the unity we have in the koinonia lif...

As we have discovered thus far, we are, by faith in Jesus Christ and baptism into His name, brothers and sisters in Christ. We are de facto unified in the koinonia lifestyle as children of the King of kings and Lord of lords. But we are more than sons and daughters, we are also disciples or followers. The Lord didn’t bring us into a relationship with Himself just to sit by and enjoy being His kids...

If the organization doesn’t have a vision, mission or purpose, the organization will flounder and will also likely fail.

This is a difficult truth for us to embrace because we’re raised to believe that “me first” is an acceptable mantra. And it would be acceptable...if we were just Americans. But we’re not just Americans, we’re American-Christians, or Christians who happen to...

I have heard it said that happiness is based on externals while joy is based on internals. Happiness can come and go based on life circumstances but joy, true joy, has the ability to be claimed every day.
