Our church is in a season of prayer and fasting. We are praying for revival in our church and for an awakening in our nation. As we entered this season of prayer, Russia invaded Ukraine. The world is watching in horror as an evil autocrat with a large nuclear arsenal seems prepared to do anything to regain the 'former glory' of the old Soviet Union, even to the point of threatening nuclear war. Many Christians have questions and wonder what these days mean and what they are to do. The answer is simpler than you might think, but it's difficult in that the answer forces us to deal with sin in our lives and our divided hearts. We must pursue Him in humility, in prayer, and we must be about His business.

Don't Miss Christ During Christmas: Suggestions for the Christmas Season
Consider doing some (or maybe all) of these things this Christmas Season. You'll have more margins and opportunities to encounter Christ this Christmas Season and more opportunities to reflect Him to others as well.
Keep ReadingBe Courageous and Love Well
Christians must stand firm, in love, shining the light of Christ brightly in a lost culture that is increasingly embracing violence and darkness. We cannot shrink back. We cannot compromise and we cannot respond with unholy anger. God has placed us here for such a time as this.
Keep ReadingA Christian Response to God and Disasters
We live in a fallen, broken world where there is much suffering and pain. The terrible flood that (at this point) has killed thirty two people, at least twenty-seven young children raises questions for us as Christians. What are we to make of such things?

Keep ReadingEmbrace These Truths, Part One
It is imperative that we, as Christians, know the Word of God so we might walk in Truth and not be deceived by lies.
Keep ReadingIt is so very easy for us to lose Christ in the season that bears His Name. This Christmas, it is our prayer that you would experience renewal, joy, peace, and the Hope that comes from receiving and treasuring the greatest gift ever given, God's gift to you, Jesus Christ.

Honoring Christ in Angry Times
We live in angry times. There is much anger in our culture over many different issues. There is a great sense of fragmentation taking place. In addition, those who are leading the culture's moral and spiritual revolution, see Christians who are committed to the authority of Scripture as 'the opposition.' As such, there is greater hostility toward the Biblical worldview and those who hold to it. How then are we to live? We must not become like the culture. We must be like Jesus, and that will only happen if we are abiding in Him and taking up our crosses to follow Him.

Praying for Revival Not Revivalism
Our churches need revival. God is working in our church. We must not confuse praying for authentic revival with revivalism.
