Remember, pigs don’t wear jewelry

https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-pis9f-12ec9f1 The gospel message and our testimony in Christ are priceless treasures.  While we are to share the good news and make disciples of all the nations, we also must heed the bible’s warning against laying our treasure before those who will only trample it.  Let us ask God for the discernment to know when…

The changes must come

https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-x8hyf-12e31fe God loves us and calls us just as we are, broken and fallen, but his plan is not to keep us that way.  The soldier must be trained and transformed before being ready for battle.  Let us not frustrate the process but take proactive steps to be changed more into the image of Christ…

The cost of a blessing

https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-ea83i-12d9f83 The blind man of John chapter 9 set the example for us.  The blessings of God may result in opposition from others or attacks from the enemy, but we should desire and chase those blessings all the same.  He blesses us to his glory even if the blessing comes with suffering.  To suffer for…

No island is a good island

https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-xswh6-12acbfa The truth is simple: we were made for one another. No one can go it alone. There is no such thing as a 1-on-1 relationship with God yet without his people. His word does not leave room for that. In God’s kingdom, you must be part of the Church to be part of him.

Good encouragement

https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-76vzd-12a42e0 Worldly encouragement is not the same as the encouragement we are to have for one another in the truth.  A kind word and a pat on the back is so much less than we should be able to offer the brethren.  We need a lot more from one another than that as we wage…

Superficial cures

https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-m7db3-129b3c5 Forget about the superficial cures.  Forget about the counterfeit remedies.  Let us get to the heart of the matter by allowing the Lord to truly treat that which ails our spirits.  Let us lead those who are spiritually hurt, broken and dying to the great physician, the only one who can save a soul.
