A Journey to Seeing Yourself Through the Eyes of Jesus
Faith Filled Life vs. Fearful Life
What does a life filled with faith look like versus a life filled with fear? You see, it is impossible to live in both fear and faith at the same time. You are either feeding faith by what you say and do, or your words and actions feed fear. Why can’t we live in...
Prayer: Powerful and Effective
Your prayers are powerful! Your prayers are needed! This year, the Lord has spoken to me about prayer. I felt like I heard from the Lord, “I am systematically dismantling the evil framework used to oppress and suppress the “common people,” but I don’t call them that....
Breaking the Chains of Evil Spirits
Deliverance is a ministry for Christian believers, and it’s the process of becoming free from demonic strongholds. How many Christians do you know who are addicted to something, like pornography, alcohol, drugs, or tv? How can a Christian be completely saved and...

We are continuing on in our study of character traits of great leaders. Last week we talked about how leaders must be submissive. Today we are going to look at a group of boys who knew that to be a good leader, they must stand firm in truth. In the days when...
Qualities of an Effective Leader: Submission
What makes a good leader? How about a great leader? Does merely holding the title of leader make one a great leader? Can someone be a leader without ever having the title of leader? While I’m no guru on the subject of being a great leader, I can tell you I...
It’s Time To Stand For Truth
