"Whoever is not with me is against me, and whoever does not gather with me scatters" - Matthew 12:30We love to think that giving God most of our hearts is good enough. We surrender the areas we’re comfortable with and hold onto the rest. We obey in the public spaces, but in private, we do what we want.

"So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead" - James 2:17It’s easy to say we believe...but it’s much harder to act like it.

It’s tempting in those moments to assume the promise must not have been real, or that maybe you missed your chance....  Read More

If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ" - Galatians 1:10There will be times in your life when obedience to God makes you look foolish to everyone else.
