As we settle into this New Year, we are given exceedingly great and precious promises. This is so that we might partake in God’s divine nature and escape the corruption that is in this world. The goal is to partake and not escape. When we partake, we escape...
Happy New Year! When we cross any threshold of time and space, we are leaving one place for another. Whether we are coming from work to home, or one year to the next, we can leave fully and enter wholly. Receive all that God has for you. Often, we leave before fully...
Christmas is a time of announcements, Christmas cards, parties, special services (Ours will be Christmas Eve at 5:00 pm and Christmas Day at 10:00 am), a time for gift giving and family gatherings. It can be overwhelming to say the least! The first Christmas surely...

Happy Election Day! Remember we are elected in Christ to reign on earth. We do this in our worship and our prayer as we ascend in Christ’s victory. His victory finds access in all situations and outcomes. He has overcome! He has justified, glorified, and is our union...
