“Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you.” 1 Peter 5:7 (NLT) The scripture is encouraging us to stop worrying, and trust God. If you look at this verse in the Greek (in which it was written) it is also giving the idea of putting responsibility of the care upon God. Too […]
To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David, when Nathan the prophet came unto him, after he had gone in to Bathsheba. Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions. Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin. […]
The pure-gospel focuses completely on Jesus and makes Him the hero of mankind. Sadly a lot of Christianity has made the gospel about what man needs to do for God. This audio teaching looks at the pure-gospel in comparison to the mixed-gospel message which has sadly infiltrated the church.

Any pastor or leader knows full-well how we can use all the help we can! Because of the great need and often the lack of supply, we can often fall into the trap of taking what we can. This can lead to huge problems. We should never appoint people to leadership or areas of responsibility […]
It amazes me how many people have very strong opinions on whether Oscar Pistorius is guilty or not (of murdering his girlfriend on Valentine’s Day last year). I have heard many people quickly pass judgment on Oscar. Funny how these people have not been trained to consider evidence, never mind that they haven’t studied all […]
This is a post I wrote back in 2010. I would probably say a few things differently today, and I would probably add a whole lot more to it, but it’s still 100% true. I believed in generational curses for years but in 2009 I was challenged on my belief regarding them and studied it […]
