Send us a text Can we rise above our worst mistakes, the regrets and sin that hold us down, the times we have given in to temptation, and done all we know we should not have? How can we rise above the things we have done, be renewed, break free of guilt and strongholds, and find peace in our hearts and mind? We can find the answer in Jesus' first word to us as He began to preach. He said, "repent for the kingdom of heaven has come near." Of all the words Jesus could have used to begin His preach...

Send us a text What does it mean to you to suffer with Christ? Have you thought how Christ uses our suffering to bring us closer to Him? Suffering can lead us to ask some hard questions of ourselves. For example, am I really giving all of my life to Christ? Am I trusting Him totally with every aspect of my life, hurt anger, doubt, grief? Can my suffering awaken in me a reality that I am not close enough, that I need more, want more and need to cry to Him to help my unbelief? If it was not for ou...
