N.ever E.nding W.ork // Missional Awareness

We have to live as markers as proclaimers, as representatives of Jesus to world.
We have to cultivate an awareness of where God is at work so that we can participate in his purpose and in his mission.

N.ever E.nding W.ork // Better Together

People in our lives that help us grow. We all have them. We hire experts for everything and trust their advice implicitly. But not when it comes to spiritual matters.

We need a wise sage in our life who asks the right questions.
We need a court jester that calls to light the junk in our life.
We need knights that lead the charge and encourage us.

We need each other. We are better together.

N.ever E.nding W.ork // Spiritual Maturity

How do we know when a person is mature. M. Scott Peck says that maturity is the ability to delay gratification. To the degree the church caters to instant desires, it actually works against our spiritual maturity.

N.ever E.nding W.ork // Fear Faith Focus Forward

People often focus on Peter losing focus and falling into the sea, but people forget that he experienced the miracle because of his faith 

N.ever E.nding W.ork // Uncomfortable

Do you use God to solve your problems, or do you use your problems to know God?

The Ten Commandments // Thou Shall Not Covet

If we have confidence that God has provided our salvation through Jesus,
why do we doubt that he would provide for his children in other ways...
“Whom have I in heaven but you? And there is nothing on earth that I desire other than you.” Psalm 73:25
