Be Holy
We want to be holy…but sometimes that just seems much easier said than done. Well the good news is you don't have to make that happen! In fact, you can't become holy in your own strength. Yes, God does expect us to live holy, consecrated lives. But not even the best of our intentions can make it happen.

If God Doesn't Do It, It Won't Get Done
When we enter into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, something wonderful happens: God begins to change our desires, and we want to be more like Him. That is good news! However, there's one important lesson we need to learn—we cannot change ourselves. In fact, trying to bring about change in our own strength will always lead to frustration.

My Story – From a Life of Pain and Fear to Healing and Freedom in Christ
I was sexually, mentally, emotionally and verbally abused by my father as far back as I can remember until I left home at the age of eighteen. More than anything, I want you to know and really understand that anyone who has been abused can fully recover if they will give their life completely to Jesus.

Don't Settle for Stuck in the Middle: Go All the Way With God!
It seems that many Christians end up halfway between bondage and victory. What I mean by that is they don't want to go back to where they came from, but they're just not sure they can make it all the way through and reach the ultimate goal. But Jesus didn't die for us to be halfway to anything He offers.

Letting God Into Every Room of Your Heart
When you become a Christian, something truly amazing happens: God comes to live inside your heart. You become the home of God. If we're going to really live the Christian life, we need to decide to surrender all of our heart

But God: When a Holy God Intervenes
The Bible says that Satan comes only to kill, steal and destroy, but God came so we can enjoy our lives (see John 10:10). "But God" is the moment when God intervenes. No matter where you are right now or what you've been through, if you'll let God in, He'll bring complete restoration to your life

Are You Living the God-Life or the Self-Life?
If we live a self-directed, self-motivated, self-centered life, always needing to get our own way, then we're going to be miserable. In fact, many times we believe it's our problems that are making us unhappy when, in reality, it's because we're focused on ourselves!
