SOAR WITH ME!

Outcome based choices. What is that? To be honest, I easily get confused with new concepts and this is one introduced to me a couple of years ago. It was in the context of spiritual life and we were challenged to think about our daily decisions in relation to what we hoped to achieve in …

Your attention please: Easter and Holy Week is still happening!

Taking our faith for a walk means we renew our hope in God and his power, sovereignty, plans and purpose. He is greater than any situation, including this one. We rehearse and remember what he has done in the past and affirm that he will do it again. And then we tell that to others. …

Last Friday evening I participated in my first ever Zoom gathering. (I wish I had developed Zoom!)

He prayed, “O Lord, God of our ancestors, you alone are the God who is in heaven. You are ruler of all the kingdoms of the earth. You are powerful and mighty; no one can stand against you! O our God, did you not drive out those who lived in this land when your people Israel arrived? …

Calm to Cracks

Perhaps you are one of those struggling to maintain a calm exterior when inside, you are cracking.

After this, the armies of the Moabites, Ammonites, and some of the Meunites declared war on Jehoshaphat. Messengers came and told Jehoshaphat, “A vast army from Edom is marching against you from beyond the Dead Sea. They are already at Hazazon-tamar.” (This was another name for En-gedi.) Jehoshaphat was terrified by this news … 2 Chronicles 20:1-3 The most beautiful …

Several times last week I heard the reference “2 Chronicles 20.” Curiosity got the best of me and I just had to check it out. Wow! It is a life changer! And by life changer, I mean it challenged my thinking which changes how I see life which is a life changer! Today, I invite …
