Paul wrote: “You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons; you cannot partake of the Lord’s table and of the table of demons.” (1 Corinthians 10:21) The same is true today. We can attend church and profess Christ, but if our hearts remain divided, we cannot walk in the fullness […]

The gospel is simple, but it’s not simplistic. It requires our whole life, but begins with a simple “yes” to Jesus. The power of the cross isn’t found in eloquent words or clever theology, but in the life-giving, world-changing truth that Jesus saves. In a world filled with noise, distractions, and complications—even in the Church—it’s […]

Old lighthouses have always captured my attention. They stand firm against the crashing waves, the driving rain, and the thick fog that hides treacherous rocks from view.

Throughout history, every mighty move of God—every awakening, revival, and spiritual reformation—has been marked by the manifest presence of the Holy Spirit..

Second, will we speak God’s Truth, even when it’s not popular? Leonard Ravenhill, […]

The world’s institutions are broken, and there will never be lasting reformation or change without an inward working of God to deal with the iniquities and corruptions of the heart. And it takes the Church to lead the way. The world is looking for an answer and the answer lies in the Church, when Jesus […]

“We need a renewed passion for God that gives us a compassion for others. How can we settle into complacency while multitudes upon multitudes of lives are in the balance of eternity? How can we be so hardened of heart as to sit back on the beach of comfort and apathy while so many are […]

Experiencing God’s presence through authentic communion with Him and one another A Defining Moment: “Don’t call me Lord anymore unless you are willing to live for Me.” That was God’s response to me one day in 1981, when I fell to my knees and cried out, “Lord, I can’t take this anymore.” It wasn’t an […]

Quiet the Noise, Draw Near, Be a Conduit “Quiet the noise around you, draw near to hear God, and listen to the heartbeat of needy souls.
