Imagine a labyrinth. The view from the inside is completely different from a birds-eye view. The person inside the labyrinth may not see the way out as easily as someone who is looking down from above. We don't always see our own faults, but God has a vantage point; a better view of our hearts.… Continue reading A Labyrinth and a Heart

URGENT: For the Youth
The Apostle Paul once said "You say, 'I am allowed to do anything'—but not everything is good for you". This couldn't be more true especially of today's youth. Please don't misunderstand me, it's ok to go out, explore the world, have adventures, enjoy our youth, but always keeping in mind our priorities and remembering to… Continue reading URGENT: For the Youth

Sometimes we become so comfortable with sin, we don't realize that it… Continue reading Offending God
2 Thieves
When Jesus was on the cross, he had a thief on either side. One of them taunted Christ, while the other simply asked that Jesus remember him once He got to heaven. Although he waited until last-minute to repent, he was not turned away because, after all, he was sincere. Salvation is just that simple;… Continue reading 2 Thieves
He Loved First
There are people who seem to love so easily, but for those who have suffered heartaches it can be a little more difficult and some have even considered themselves incapable of love. Often times we fear love because we fear getting hurt. The Bible speaks of the ultimate love story in John 3:16. God sent His only… Continue reading He Loved First
