christian impact goal
Churches are having a limited impact on society because they fail to understand that the goal of the church is not the church itself but the kingdom.
god people disciple
Disciples are people who operate under the rule of God, and if we're not operating under the rule of God, we can't expect the broader society to take God seriously.
angel worship adore
As created beings, angels are not to be worshipped, glorified, or adored in and of themselves. The angels were created to worship, glorify, adore, and obey God.
light differences long
I try to explain the difference to a client between cleaning and restoration.Cleaning is simply removing some light to moderate soils. Restoration is removing those hardened deposits and stains that require heavier cleaners and much more time. Or on a building that has just been built or renovated it's removing all the construction debris. Setting expectations can go a long way to having and keeping satisfied customers.
triumph imagine turns
God can take your most monstrous failures and turn them into triumphs such as you never could imagine.
christian understanding agendas
When you understand the values of God's kingdom, you will best understand His agenda.4 However, it is my conviction that the message of the kingdom, and the values therein, are sorely lacking in understanding today.
christian party exercise
Every voting choice you exercise ought to be for the candidate, platform, party, or policy that will best represent the values of the kingdom of God.
christian promise vote
God only promises to bless the nation that recognizes His authority.
people purpose world
Revival is the return of God's manifest presence to His people for the purpose of them renewing their relationship with Him, with each other and for the good of the broader society. It is necessary because much of what God determines to do, or not do, in the world is determined by His relationship to His people.
christian moving order
Keep in mind that God's sovereignty allows Him to even use that which is not cooperating with Him (the bad) in order to move things to where He wants them to go.
christian shepherds needs
If the Lord is your shepherd, He is sufficient for all your needs.
focus church building
One of the major failures of the church is not a focus on building disciples but a focus on building members.
light darkness storm
It often takes the darkness of a storm to show us the light of God's presence.
christian issues drug
Nobody is born a drug addict or a homosexual. Christians may be performing in these unacceptable ways, but that's not who they are. It's an identity issue.
