Prayer Changes Us
“The primary purpose of prayer is not to change circumstances; the primary purpose of prayer is to change us!” – Draw the Circle: The 40 Day Prayer Challenge by Mark Batterson
Some Call Me Crazy, But I’m More Sane Than You Think
What motivates me? There are a few things. My health, my family, water for the people of Sierra Leone Africa, and time alone with God. Oh, and I am a little crazy and actually enjoy it.
The Keyword is “Since” Not “If”
As a follow up to my previous post it’s important that we remember that everything we are called to do as a Christ follower is in the context of “since” and not “if”. What’s the difference? If we have the thinking, “if someone is doing ‘x’, or not doing ‘y’, they can’t be a believer”, we are basically inferring that someone has no faith or belief in Christ because of their actions. That’s a pretty big leap, and a sure fire way to further the view that Christians are righteous, judgemental, hippacrits, essentially modern day Pharisees. As we dig into the New Testament we’ll find it’s very clear that as a result of being, or “since” we are, Christ followers there should be a lot…
All That’s Required is to Believe
The ONLY measure of a Christian is that they believe in Christ as their savior, and put their faith in that truth.
The Pursuit Of Understanding
I will pursue your commands, for you expand my understanding. – Psalms 119:32 NLT
