How do we live above the voice of condemnation? The truth is, we have all sinned and fallen short. We have all done things we should not have, and as a result, the voice of condemnation can sound very convincing. Yet, the Bible tells us that there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ. His life and love set us free from the power of sin and death. So how do we stop listening to condemnati...

Pastor Kevin Eshleman teaches on the power of God's love to redeem and restore so that condemnation has no hold in our lives.

What can we do to cultivate supernatural joy in our daily lives? Joy, unlike happiness, is not dependent upon our circumstances, but is rooted instead in God's goodness.

Joy is a free gift from God, but it's not automatic. We need to...

Pastor Kevin Eshleman explains the difference between joy and happiness and where we can find real, lasting joy.

How do we hold on to hope when the waiting is long or when what we hoped for didn't happen? In life, we face many experiences of deferred and disappointed hope.

We all know we should be thankful, but how do we cultivate a practice of thankfulness that actually changes our lives? We have a choice between thankfulness and discontentment. God clearly commands us to be people who practice thankfulness, no matter what we are facing. This takes intentionality. Otherwise, our worldview will be shaped by the negativity and complaining of the culture around us. Ho...

Pastor Kevin Eshleman reminds us of the importance of living with thanksgiving in the midst of a critical and discontented culture.

How do you cultivate fellowship with the Holy Spirit in your life? In 2 Corinthians 13:14, Paul blessed his readers to experience the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, but what does that really mean?

Pastor Kevin Eshleman gives us four keys for how we can properly prepare our hearts to receive an impartation from the Lord.

What exactly is impartation, and why do you need it? Join Dan Gulnac and Matt Swords as they discuss the biblical principle of impartation and why each one of us needs it. Our lives in Christ aren't powered by our own human wisdom or effort, but by the Holy Spirit at work in us.
