"Therefore I want the men in every place to pray, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and dissension." 1 Timothy 2:8 Over the past months, the Lord has continued to challenge us to Exalt the Lord Who Has Established Us!

Now you followed my teaching, conduct, purpose, faith, patience, love, perseverance, persecutions, and sufferings, such as happened to me at Antioch, at Iconium and at Lystra; what persecutions I endured, and out of them all the Lord rescued me! 2 Timothy 3:10-11 Greetings!

“Therefore, since we also have such a great cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let’s rid ourselves of every obstacle and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let’s run with endurance the race that is set before us.” Hebrews 12:1 NASB This biblical reference to athletic competitions is a rare moment where the ancient culture of the Apostle Paul’s day collides with our modern lifestyle – sporting events are still a pillar of the culture and provide great opportunities to leverage common understanding of sports to apply spiritual lessons. In our day, sports encourage young people to be active,... Read more >>

“Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened. Or what person is there among you who, when his son asks for a loaf of bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, he will not give him a snake, will he? So if you, despite being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your... Read more >>

Almost three months ago on May 5th, Americans everywhere paused to intercede for Our nation and to “exalt the Lord Who Has Established Us” (Colossians 2:6-7). We must remember that God will respond in His timing. Our prayers for America and America’s leaders will not go unanswered. Like the disciples who waited for the promise... Read more >>

“Whoever gives heed to instruction prospers and blessed is the one who trusts in the LORD.” Proverbs 16:20 NIV When I turn my calendar over to August, I still get a little rush of excitement that something ‘new’ is starting. I feel profoundly compelled to buy a binder, notebook paper and a pack of pens even though I don’t really need any of those supplies, and my schedule won’t change between summer and fall. It’s only my second year after finishing my formal education, so the rhythm of ‘back to school’ hasn’t quite worn off yet. However, for millions of... Read more >>
