Jesus challenges us to heal the hurting, feed the hungry, include the lonely, and help people find their way back to God. Most people listen to the missional challenge of Jesus as if it were a good motivational talk-something to inspire us, but not something we can actually achieve. Others hear the challenge of Jesus and become frustrated with how little they've done. The mission Jesus gave us was not just meant to inspire us, nor was it intended...

For the writing of this book is exciting to me, of us being able to prepare for Jesus' return. And as the Scriptures say, to watch and pray means that Jesus really would like to have us come with Him on His return to the Father's house in heaven.Most do know very little about the function of a church body of believers when it comes to the proper role of an apostle, a prophet, an evangelist, a bishop/pastor, and a teacher. And as how to define the...

Often that leads to an understanding of what type of church that is - is it part of an association or denomination, or if independent, what characteristics best define the church (worship style, doctrinal distinctives, etc.). This can be a helpful part of building healthy relationships with other believers - knowing where we have commonalities and where we might...

The holy scriptures are not always easy to read and understand. The Old Testament has many laws that are impossible for us to keep. Consider some of the following laws. Should we apply capital punishment for incorrigible children? (Exodus 21:18-21), for those caught in adultery? And if you will be honest with yourself, this will include a vast number of people today (Leviticus 20:10). What about the false teachers among us (Deuteronomy 13:1-11), should...
