God is Love and as such, He has a premium for loving, not just others, but loving ourselves. Love can look like many things and God is always stretching us to love as He loves. For so many who have experienced abuse, rejection, and abandonment and perhaps have fallen into sinful patterns that bring shame, this can feel impossible. But with God ALL things are possible!

Brad served as a pastor and church planter for twenty years, where he developed a hea...

As human beings we struggle. We have all sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. We usually fall in 2 ditches. We either feel the torment of guilt and condemnation or we slough it off is if it’s not a big deal. Neither one of these lead to freedom. And we were meant to be free!

Why does evil happen when God is so good and powerful? Paul Young, author of “The Shack”, “Eve”, and multiple best selling books, addresses what happens when God creates a world in which the possibility (the inevitability) of ‘no’ to love will occur, and then submits to that creation and its choices, and to the ripples of those choices. Because of this all manner of deviation occurs. But Love inha...

God is always engaging with His sons and daughters to provide, heal, empower and bless, but also to conform His treasured kids into His image. This last process can be rugged as He asks us to lay down ego-driven and destructive ways of being. But yielding to Him yields gorgeous dividends as we trust Him in the process.

When we understand the eternal relationship of Father, Son and Spirit, we have a starting point to understand God, ourselves and our relationships: with God, one another, and all creation. The exquisite oneness of Trinity, union with distinction, is essential, mysterious, and beautiful. It is summed up in the word “perichoresis”. Join Larry McKnight as we tackle exploring this glorious and mysteri...

God is Love and God is Truth. And the truth in our inner person sets us free. We are told to speak the truth in love. But what happens when the truth is NOT lovely?

The word, “meta-narrative”, is a fancy sounding word describing our foundational assumptions (rarely questioned) that weave into story form in our thinking. This story --and it's particular assumptions-- influence how and why each one of us see and interpret data, events, and experiences the way we do. They affect how we see God, ourselves, our relationships, and every aspect of our lives. To grow...

We live in a supercharged world of offense, division, and polarization. Christ prayed that we would be one as He and the Father are one. To answer the prayer, we as sons and daughters of God, were given one commandment - to love and God loves. Love and His eternal commandment is so sweeping, nuanced, and impossible in and of ourselves, that we continually need to bathe in His love and grow in our...
